Introduction: Chronic social-role-related stress plays a crucial role in the development and progression of mental and medical disorders, making it an important factor to consider. This study aimed to translate and validate The Chronic Stress Scale (CSS) adapted by Turner for a Turkish population and explore its role in depression, anxiety, and perceived stress.
Methods: A total of 524 participants (mean age 31.
Purpose: Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common causes of death among females. Cancer cells escape from apoptosis, causing the cells to proliferate uncontrollably. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are known to regulate apoptosis in cancer cells.

Among the most abundant oxides on Earth, oxychalcogenides stand out for their cost-effectiveness and ease of synthesis. In this context, we present an investigation of the potential use of BiAgOS as an efficient photocatalyst for hydrogen generation.

A new material belonging to the family of Janus transition metal dichalcogenides with out-of-plane structural asymmetry has been recently found to show interesting physical and chemical properties. Using density functional theory and density functional perturbation theory, within the generalized gradient approximation with van der Waals correction, we performed a detailed investigation of the electronic structure, phonon dispersion, Eliashberg spectral function, and electron-phonon coupling of Janus MSSe bilayers (M = Mo or W) and the Janus MoSSe/WSSe heterostructure intercalated with alkali metals (Li, Na, and K) or alkaline earth metals (Mg, Ca, and Sr).

The latest research that shows the prevalence and incidence of AF patients in Türkiye was the Turkish Adults' Heart Disease and Risk Factors study, which included 3,450 patients and collected data until 2006/07.The Turkish Real Life Atrial Fibrillation in Clinical Practice (TRAFFIC) study is planned to present current prevalence data, reveal the reflection of new treatment and risk approaches in our country, and develop new prediction models in terms of outcomes.
