Introduction: In natural disasters, children encounter serious health problems.
Method: This qualitative phenomenological study investigated the problems encountered by children with a diagnosis of celiac disease who lived in the earthquake region of Kahramahmaras in Turkey. Colaizzi method, a phenomenological research method, was used in the study.

December 2024
Background: Earthquakes cause significant psychological and physical trauma in children, especially when leading to amputations, as they disrupt physical, emotional, and social well-being.
Aim: This study was conducted phenomenologically to explore the experiences of children amputated in the Kahramanmaraş earthquake and their parents/caregivers.
Method: This study was conducted as a phenomenological study with children who were amputated in the Kahramanmaraş earthquake and their parents/caregivers between August and October 2023.
Dual-targeting drug design has become a popular approach in investigating and developing potent anticancer agents. In this regard, carbonic anhydrase (CAIX) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR-2) are emerging as highly effective targets in the battle against cancer. In the present study, two series of 4-thiazolidinones/2,4-thiazolidinediones carrying 2-methylbenzenesulfonamide derivatives were designed and synthesized as potential dual CAIX/VEGFR-2 inhibitors.

- - The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of combined deep and superficial serratus anterior block (C-SAPB) against thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) for managing postoperative pain in patients who underwent video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS).
- - Both TPVB and C-SAPB groups included 30 patients each, receiving the same dosage of local anesthetics, with their pain levels measured through visual analog scale (VAS) scores over 48 hours, showing no significant differences in pain management or satisfaction.
- - The findings suggest that C-SAPB might be a viable alternative to TPVB for postoperative analgesia, with similar outcomes in pain control and fewer complications, alongside a slightly quicker administration process.
Article Synopsis
- The study compared clinical outcomes of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) surgeries during COVID-related lockdowns (partial and complete) versus non-COVID periods in a tertiary ophthalmology clinic.
- A total of 20 cases were analyzed for both partial and complete lockdowns, and 23 cases from non-COVID times, focusing on factors such as visual symptoms duration, lens status, and visual acuity.
- Results showed no significant differences in surgical approaches or final visual acuity after two years across the different periods, suggesting that lockdowns did not impact the effectiveness of RRD surgeries.
