Culture is all of the unique, material and spiritual values that distinguish societies formed as a result of historical accumulation. Values such as customs and traditions nurtured by cultures have shaped the dress codes of societies. Turks, who have a rich culture, have their own traditional clothes. The aim of this study is to deal with the historical dimension of the shalwar which has always played an important role in the life of the Turkish nation with a long history, and which has a place among the traditional clothes. Shalwars contain the cultural and spiritual values of the society. Since this cultural heritage is in danger of extinction in the future, it is important to research, document, preserve and keep alive the material cultural assets without losing these values completely. In the study, a literature review was made on the definition, history, and current status of shalwar. Among the examples of shalwars which have survived to the present day and are few in boxes and museums, two shalwar samples in Kırşehir Province Museum were included in the study. The shalwars were examined through observation slips prepared according to their characteristics. Combining the information obtained with today's trends, one shalwar was sewn. It is thought that this study will contribute to the survival of the shalwar, which is an important part of the Turkish clothing culture. Key words: Turkish culture, Shalwar, Traditional clothing, Kırşehir Region Shalwars

Cultural Monuments

In the article, the author analyzes the modern model of the phenomenon of a monument of history and culture. The author notes that, as carriers of social information, monuments are considered the most popular phenomena that implement the «memory» function in them. If we pay attention to the equivalents of the word «memory» in other languages, then there is no need for further argumentation for this view. Taking into account that the expression “monument of history and culture” itself has a special paradigm of analysis, there is an initial need to analyze the concept of «memory». The author analyzing the correlation of the concept of «abide» with the concepts of «monument», «monument» reveals the general aspects of this phenomenon. The purpose of the article is to attribute the monument of history and culture to the category of cultural heritage. The initial goal of the science of the study of monuments, which began its formation in the late 80s of the last century in post-Soviet countries, especially in Moscow and Leningrad, was initiated by scientists P. Boyarsky, A. Kulemzin, A. Dyachkov, etc., namely the theoretical the study of the scientific essence of this phenomenon. The author noted that since the second half of the last century, historical and cultural monuments have become the object of research in many sciences, such as philosophy, sociology, history, the study of art and culture, pedagogy, philology, natural science, etc. Key words: abide, historical and cultural monument, cultural heritage, memory. Аналізується сучасна модель феномена пам’ятка історії і культури. Автор зазначає, що як носії соціальної інформації пам’ятки вважаються найбільш популярними явищами, які реалізують у них функцію «пам’яті». Якщо звернути увагу на еквіваленти слова «пам’ять» в інших мовах, то немає необхідності в подальшій аргументації для цього погляду. Беручи до уваги, що саме слово «пам’ятка історії і культури» має особливу парадигму аналізу, існує необхідність аналізу поняття «пам’яті». Автор аналізуючи співвідношення поняття «Абиде» з поняттями «пам’ятник», «монумент» виявляє загальні аспекти цього явище. Мета статті – відносити пам’ятку історії і культури до категорію культурної спадщини. Початкова мета науки про вивчення пам’яток почала своє становлення наприкінці 80-х роках минулого століття в пострадянських країнах, особливо в Москві та Ленінграді з ініціативи вчених П. Боярського, А. Кулезмін, А. Дьячков та ін.. Автор зауважив, що починаючи з другої половини минулого століття пам’ятки історії і культури стали об’єктом досліджень багатьох наук, зокрема таких як філософія, соціологія, історія мистецтва та культури, педагогіка, філологія, природознавство. Ключові слова: Абиде, пам’ятка історії та культури, культурна спадщина, пам’ять.

Nonmuscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

Purpose Nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is a challenging disease to manage primarily due to its varied clinical course. The management of NMIBC has witnessed a widespread change with respect to its diagnosis and treatment. Although transurethral resection (TUR) and adjuvant bacillus Calmette–Guerin (BCG) stills remain the cornerstone, newer protocols has come into vogue to achieve optimal care. On the basis of a literature review, we aimed to establish ‘what changes has already occurred and what is expected in the future’ in NMIBC. Methods A Medline search was performed to identify the published literature with respect to diagnosis, treatment and future perspectives on NMIBC. Particular emphasis was directed to determinants such as the quality of TUR and the newer modifications, Re-TUR, current status of newer macroscopic and microscopic imaging, role of urinary biomarkers, clinical, histologic and molecular predictors of high-risk disease, administration of intravesical agents, salvage therapy in BCG recurrence and the current best practice guidelines were analyzed. Results and Conclusions Optimal TUR, restaging in select group, incorporation of newer endoscopic imaging and judicious administration of intravesical chemo-immunotherapeutic agents can contribute to better patient care. Although there is a plethora of urinary markers, there is insufficient evidence for their use in isolation. The future probably lies in identification of genetic markers to determine disease recurrence, nonresponders to standard treatment and early institution of alternative/targeted therapy.

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the necessity of good quality and adequate quantity of healthcare infrastructure facilities. Healthcare facilities were provided for COVID-19 facilities with improvisation and supplementary lateral infrastructure from other sectors. However, the main point of contemplation going into the future was regarding how to quickly develop healthcare facilities. The subject domain of ‘industrial engineering’ (IE) and its associated perspectives could provide some key insights regarding this. The authors undertook a conceptual literature review and provided theoretical argumentation toward this. The findings provided insights regarding the application of industrial engineering concepts in healthcare facilities and services.

This paper deals with innovative fruition modalities of cultural heritage sites. Based on two ongoing experiments, four pillars are considered, that is, User Localization, Multimodal Interaction, User Understanding and Gamification. A survey of the existing literature regarding one or more issues related to the four pillars is proposed. It aims to put in evidence the exploitation of these contributions to cultural heritage. It is discussed how a cultural site can be enriched, extended and transformed into an intelligent multimodal environment in this perspective. This new augmented environment can focus on the visitor, analyze his activity and behavior, and make his experience more satisfying, fulfilling and unique. After an in-depth overview of the existing technologies and methodologies for the fruition of cultural interest sites, the two experiments are described in detail and the authors’ vision of the future is proposed.

Critical Literature

The ability of dairy farmers to keep their cows for longer could positively enhance the economic performance of the farms, reduce the environmental footprint of the milk industry, and overall help in justifying a sustainable use of animals for food production. However, there is little published on the current status of cow longevity and we hypothesized that a reason may be a lack of standardization and an over narrow focus of the longevity measure itself. The objectives of this critical literature review were: (1) to review metrics used to measure dairy cow longevity; (2) to describe the status of longevity in high milk-producing countries. Current metrics are limited to either the length of time the animal remains in the herd or if it is alive at a given time. To overcome such a limitation, dairy cow longevity should be defined as an animal having an early age at first calving and a long productive life spent in profitable milk production. Combining age at first calving, length of productive life, and margin over all costs would provide a more comprehensive evaluation of longevity by covering both early life conditions and the length of time the animal remains in the herd once it starts to contribute to the farm revenues, as well as the overall animal health and quality of life. This review confirms that dairy cow longevity has decreased in most high milk-producing countries over time and its relationship with milk yield is not straight forward. Increasing cow longevity by reducing involuntary culling would cut health costs, increase cow lifetime profitability, improve animal welfare, and could contribute towards a more sustainable dairy industry while optimizing dairy farmers’ efficiency in the overall use of resources available.
