(i) We present several limits associated with the Euler-Mascheroni constant. (ii) Let γ = 0.577215 . . . be the Euler-Mascheroni constant, and let Tn = ∑n k=1 1 k − ln ( n+ 1 2 + 1 24n ) and Pn = ∑n k=1 2 2k−1 − ln(4n). We determine the best possible constants α, β, a and b such that the inequalities 1 48(n+ α)3 ≤ γ − Tn < 1 48(n+ β)3 and 1 24(n+ a)2 ≤ Pn − γ < 1 24(n+ b)2 are valid for all int...

Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of probing surgery in patients with congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) according to application time and age groups.&#x0D; Materials Methods: In this retrospective study, CNLDO who were followed up at Cukurova University Faculty Medicine between 2012 2022 evaluated. One hundred thirteen eyes 90 included study. The fluorescein dye disappearanc...

Background: Dermatophytosis (ringworm) is a zoonotic fungal skin infection caused predominantly by Microsporum canis, gypseum and Trichophyton spp. It highly transmissible and, while normally self-limiting, could be problematic due to its potential cause disease in certain human populations. The occurrence associated risk factors of dermatophytoses dogs presented at three veterinary clinics Oso...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the β-lactamase background of ertapenem non-susceptible isolates for the presence of the most commonly detected carbapenemase genes, bla(KPC), bla(OXA-48) and bla(VIM), and the newly described bla(NDM-1). METHODS Two hundred and thirty-five ertapenem-non-susceptible (MIC ≥ 0.5 mg/L) isolates of Enterobacteriaceae from the worldwide Study for Monitoring Antimicrobial ...

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of recipient-donor estrous cycle synchrony on recipient reproductive performance after nonsurgical deep-uterine (NsDU) embryo transfer (ET). The transfers (N=132) were conducted in recipients sows that started estrus 24 h before (-24 h; N=9) or 0 h (synchronous; N=31), 24 h (+24 h; N=74) or 48 h (+48 h; N=18) after the donors. A total of 30 day 5 morulae ...

STUDY OBJECTIVE Treatment with a shortened duration of oral N-acetylcysteine (20 to 48 hours) after acute acetaminophen poisoning is effective in the prevention of subsequent hepatic failure and death when administered to individuals meeting appropriate laboratory criteria. METHODS Individuals with a potentially toxic acetaminophen ingestion according to serum acetaminophen levels were identi...

BACKGROUND Ventricular arrhythmias remain a lethal complication of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, the incidence and prognosis of sustained ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF) in contemporary non-ST-segment-elevation (NSTE) ACS populations are not well described. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the incidence of VT/VF and subsequent survival among 9211 patients en...

This study compared the traditional two-compartment (fat mass or FM; fat free mass or FFM) hydrodensitometric method of body composition measurement, which is based on body density, with three (FM, total body water or TBW, fat free dry mass)- and four (FM, TBW, bone mineral mass or BMM, residual)-compartment models in highly trained men (n = 12), sedentary men (n = 12), highly trained women (n ...
