A new network of coupled maps is proposed in which the connections between units involve no delays but the intra-neural communication does, whereas in the work of Atay et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 144101 (2004)], the focus is on information processing delayed by the inter-neural communication. We show that the synchronization of the network depends on not only the intrinsic dynamical features and inter-connection topology (characterized by the spectrum of the graph Laplacian) but also the delays and the coupling strength. There are two main findings: (i) the more neighbours, the easier to be synchronized; (ii) odd delays are easier to be synchronized than even ones. In addition, compared with those discussed by Atay et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 144101 (2004)], our model has a better synchronizability for regular networks and small-world variants.

Department of Pediatric Rheumatology, Health Science University, Umraniye Research and Training Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey.
Introduction: Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is crucial for saving lives when used appropriately. This study aimed to assess TPE's impact on tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) protein and IL-6 levels in critically ill pediatric patients.
Methods: Conducted between May 2022 and December 2022, the study observed pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) patients undergoing TPE, recording demographics, lab results, TWEAK, and IL-6 levels pre- and post-procedure.

Introduction: Pneumonia is a common symptom of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), and this study aimed to determine how analyzing initial thoracic computerized-tomography (CT) scans using semi-quantitative methods could be used to predict the outcomes for hospitalized patients.
Materials And Methods: This study looked at previously collected data from adult patients who were hospitalized with a positive test for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 and had CT scans of their thorax at the time of presentation. The CT scans were evaluated for the extent of lung involvement using a semi-quantitative scoring system ranging from 0 to 72.

Hacettepe University, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Opthalmology, Ankara, Turkey.
Aims And Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the presence, type, and severity of hearing losses in individuals with Duane Retraction Syndrome (DRS), and to ascertain if there are anomalies in the auditory pathways at the brainstem level in DRS, believed to arise from aberrant interaction between cranial nerves and brainstem nuclei.
Study Design: Cross-sectional observational study.
Setting: Tertiary referral centre.

Faculty of Health Sciences, Nursing Department, Giresun University, Giresun, Turkey.
Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the effect of Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) on apathy, loneliness, anxiety, and activities of daily living of individuals with Alzheimer's disease.
Method: The study was conducted in a daily care center between January 2023 and January 2024 in a randomized control study. A total of 52 people, 26 intervention and 26 control groups, were enrolled in the study and formed the sample of the study.
