Comparative efficacy of different tenderizing agents and time on Physicochemical textural and organoleptic properties of squid () muscle.

This study aimed to investigate the chemical, physical, textural, and sensory properties of the squid () muscle during different tenderization agents (yeast, milk, and mineral water) and times (3, 6, 12, and 24 h). The results of the analyses showed that different treatments and their durations affected the dry matter, ash, lipid, and crude protein content of the squid. According to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis results, it was observed that there was a slight decrease in band intensities based on different treatments and their durations.

Failed insertion of ureteral access sheath during flexible ureterorenoscopy: a randomized controlled trial comparing second session flexible ureterorenoscopy or same session mini percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

Purpose: To compare different treatment approaches in patients with failed ureteral access sheath placement during first flexible ureterorenoscopy (f-URS) session.

Methods: Patients with kidney stones measuring 1-2 cm, presented to our urology clinic between September 2020 and September 2021, were included in the study for evaluation. The study was designed prospectively (Clinical-Trials number NCT05911945).

Role of tobacco exposure in the course of COVID-19 disease and the impact of the disease on smoking behavior.

Background: The effect of COVID-19 on smoking behavior is not fully known. Studies evaluating the link between smoking and COVID-19 have controversial results. This study aims to evaluate patients' smoking status with COVID-19 and the effect of COVID-19 on smoking behavior.

The effects of intra-cerebroventricular administered rocuronium on the central nervous system of rats and determination of its epileptic seizure-inducing dose.

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of intracerebroventricularly administered rocuronium bromide on the central nervous system, determine the seizure threshold dose of rocuronium bromide in rats, and investigate the effects of rocuronium on the central nervous system at 1/5, 1/10, and 1/100 dilutions of the determined seizure threshold dose.

Methods: A permanent cannula was placed in the lateral cerebral ventricle of the animals. The study was designed in two phases.
