    EFFECTIVENESS OF MEDIA MEDIATED INFORMATION AND AWARENESS PROJECT OF HEPATITIS B ON DIAGNOSIS, MONITORING AND TREATMENT OF HEPATITIS B
    (Carbone Editore, 2013) Dal, Tuba; Celen, Mustafa Kemal; Ulas, Sevilay; Celik, Yusuf
    Background: Incidence of hepatitis B is 8-12% in Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey. In Diyarbakir, Batman, Siirt, Mardin, which are residential areas with a population of 2.2 million, 95000-144000 persons are suffering from this infectious disease. We aimed to increase the awareness of the public about Hepatitis B through the media, to monitor the impact of this disease on patients, and to determine prevention and treatment strategy. Methods: In four cities, 12 television programs lasting about 60-90 minutes, have been broadcasted 60 days apart between 01.01.2010-31.12.2011. At the same time, in a local newspaper, which was read in the whole region, a corner of hepatitis B formed and different topics, opinions, problems, and wrong treatment methods were discussed in, one day a week. Results: Admission of Diyarbakir patients to Dicle University Hospital was increased by 19% and Batman patients was increased by 23%. A significant difference (p < 0.028) was observed in the number of patients admitted to the infectious diseases clinic for hepatitis B. between the years 2009-2011. Conclusion: Continuous media programs, especially in areas with low levels of socioeconomic status will be effective in diagnosis of new cases, monitoring and treatment, preventing of disease, and preventing of the spread.

    Evaluation of oxidative stress parameters and metabolic activities of nurses working day and night shifts
    (Univ Sao Paolo, 2013) Ulas, Turgay; Buyukhatipoglu, Hakan; Kirhan, Idris; Dal, Mehmet Sinan; Ulas, Sevilay; Demir, Mehmet Emin; Eren, Mehmet Ali
    The aim of this study was to evaluate the oxidative stress and metabolic activities of nurses working day and night shifts. Intensive care unit (ICU) (n=70) and ordinary service (OS) nurses (n=70) were enrolled in the study. Just before and the end of the shifts, blood samples were obtained to measure the participants' oxidative stress parameters. Metabolic activities were analyzed using the SenseWear Armband. Oxidative stress parameters were increased at the end of the shifts for all OS and ICU nurses compared to the beginning of the shifts. Compared to the OS nurses, the ICU nurses' TAS, TOS, and OSI levels were not significantly different at the end of the day and night shifts. The metabolic activities of the OS and ICU nurses were found to be similar. As a result, the OS and ICU nurses' oxidative stress parameters and metabolic activities were not different, and all of the nurses experienced similar effects from both the day and night shifts.
