Evaluation of Nutritional Recommendations Provided by the ChatGPT Language Model to Bariatric Surgery Patients
(Sciendo, 2025-03) Kumru Yildirim, Merve; Bayam, Hikmet; Yildiz, Nida; Gök Kahraman, Fatma; Acar, Nazli; 256218
ChatGPT is recognized as a promising tool in healthcare by providing continuous support, quick accessibility, and personalized guidance for weight management [1]. In the field of bariatrics, the potential of ChatGPT in post-surgery weight management and nutrition is particularly noteworthy. In a study, the accuracy of the model’s general responses to bariatric questions was confirmed; however, the reliability of its responses to nutrition-specific issues has not yet been examined [2]. In this study, the aim is to evaluate the nutritional recommendations provided by the ChatGPT language model for patients following bariatric surgery through expert dietitians.
This study was designed as a cross-sectional study. The responses provided by the free version of the ChatGPT 3.5 were evaluated by three experts in bariatric surgery. Initially, frequently asked postoperative nutrition questions were identified based on input from three experts who consult bariatric patients. This process led to the creation of 27 questions, which were then posed to ChatGPT in Turkish, with responses recorded immediately. For evaluation, responses were categorized as: '1: consistent with the guidelines', '2: consistent but incomplete', '3: consistent but contradictory', and '4: inconsistent'. The responses were assessed by two experts, with a third expert reviewing any disagreements.

Increasing Cases of Retroperitoneal Fibrosis After Covid-19: Case Report, Did She Die Retroperitoneal Fibrosis or Cancer?
(Emergency Medicine Physicians Assoc Turkey, 2024-03) Deniz, Gulnihal; Cakir, Murteza; Bilgin Akyagci, Serpil
This case report details the unfortunate journey of a 59-year-old breast cancer survivor who developed secondary Retroperitoneal Fibrosis (RPF) in 2022. Despite diligent treatment efforts, her condition took a devastating turn when, in June 2023, she was diagnosed not only with persistent RPF but also with advanced liver, omental, and duodenal cancer. Tragically, her condition deteriorated rapidly, leading to her passing on day 41 following her presentation. This case underscores the challenges of diagnosing and treating RPF. It highlights the importance of considering cancer development in advanced RPF cases that do not respond to treatment, often leaving limited options for effective intervention.

Pure-Cubic Optical Soliton Solutions of the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation Including Parabolic Law Nonlinearity in the Absence of the Group Velocity Dispersion
(Springer, 2025-03) Ozisik, Muslum; Altun Durmus, Selvi; Secer, Aydin; Bayram, Mustafa; 226795
This article investigates the third-order dimensionless nonlinear Schr & ouml;dinger equation with a parabolic law media term, while deliberately excluding the group velocity dispersion term, which typically governs the propagation of ultrashort pulses. The Generalized Kudryashov approach, a powerful and novel technique, is applied for the first time to obtain pure-cubic optical soliton solutions for this model. Using this method, bright, kink, and dark soliton solutions are derived. To illustrate the dynamics and physical properties of these solutions, 2D, contour, and 3D visualizations are presented. In particular, 2D plots with carefully selected parameter values are provided to investigate how the presence of the parabolic law media term and the absence of the group velocity dispersion term influence soliton behavior. The results clearly demonstrate the physical relevance of the model and emphasize the effectiveness of the Generalized Kudryashov approach as a reliable technique for obtaining analytical solutions to the equation under consideration.

Kalabalık Yalnızlık Ölçeği
(İKSAD, 2025-02) Karayaman, Saffet; Boz, Dursun; Şener, Murat; Güler, Kahraman; 331826; 374719; 307837; Toper Kaygın, Azize; Ulutaşdemir, Nurgül; Çiftçi, Hasan
Türk Dil Kurumu, yaklaşık 1 milyon kişinin katılım sağladığı oylamanın sonunda "2024 Yılı Kelimesi/Kavramı" olarak "kalabalık yalnızlık" terimini seçtiğini duyurmuştur. Değerlendirme Kurulu, bu kavramın seçilmesine dair gerekçesini şöyle belirtmiştir. 2024 yılında, insanların kalabalıklar içinde yalnızlık hissettiklerine dair yapılan araştırmaların sayısının arttığı gözlemlenmektedir. Birbirinin zıttı gibi görünen; "yalnızlık"ı çağrıştıran teklik ile çokluğu simgeleyen "kalabalık" kavramı, aynı anda var olabilmektedir. Psikolojik, sosyolojik ve iletişimsel gerekçeler ile açıklanan bu olgu, bireylerin günlük yaşamlarında ve kurdukları ilişkilerde kendini açıkça göstermektedir. Dijitalleşen dünyada, medenileşme amacıyla kurduğu şehirlerde kalabalıklaştıkça, aslında insan yalnızlaşmıştır. Sonuçta, iki kelam edecek bir dost arayışına düşmüştür. Kendi yarattığı çarkın içinde yalnızlaşan insanın en büyük sorunu yine kalabalıklar içinde yalnızlıktır.

The End of The World: Unveiling Dystopian Apocalypse in Caryl Churchill’s Far Away
(RumeliYa Yayıncılık, 2025-02) Özçelik, Kaya; 351393; Yılmaz, Yakup
Being a seminal work, Caryl Churchill’s Far Away delves deep into the layers of the end of the world by merging both dystopian and apocalyptic visions. Offering a fragmented narrative that reflects the disintegration of social, moral and natural orders of the world, Churchill’s play brings her reader/audience closer to face how the end of the world will be. The play’s structure and tone progressively immerse the audience in a world unravelling into chaos, where the boundaries between good and evil blur, and nature itself becomes embroiled in humanity’s conflicts. Through minimalist dialogue and surreal imagery, Churchill presents her reader/audience with a disturbing portrayal of a society where fear, violence, and moral ambiguity are the mere causes of the apocalypse. While the dystopian elements in the play are underlined through the depiction of authoritarian control, systemic violence, and the erasure of individual agency with Churchill’s chilling commentary on the fragility of democratic and ethical structures, themes such as the collapse of ecological and social harmony that eventually lead to an inevitable descent into global destruction form the backbone of apocalyptic discourse in Far Away. Endowing her play with postmodernist techniques such as fragmented storytelling and open-ended conclusion, Churchill invites the audience to grapple with the moral consequences of complicity and the pervasive impact of war and ecological crisis. This study examines how Far Away interweaves dystopian and apocalyptic elements to criticise contemporary sociopolitical and environmental issues. Exploring themes of dehumanization, systemic oppression, and environmental decay, the play compels its reader/audience to confront the urgent ethical dilemmas of the modern world. All in all, Churchill’s work offers a potent warning about the interconnected nature of societal collapse and ecological destruction, with a specific urge to enable humanity to reconsider its role in shaping a sustainable and near future.
