    Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine, using cone beam computed tomography images, the direction and severity of nasal septal deviation as well as the relationship between the presence of concha bullosa with maxillary sinus volume. Materials and Methods: : In this retrospective study, images of 50 individuals who had been referred for cone beam computed tomography imaging for a variety of reasons were used. Age, gender, the direction and severity of the nasal septal deviation, and the presence and types of concha bullosa, were all investigated. The maxillary sinus volume was calculated using the Simplant Pro 16 program (Materialise NV, Leuven, Belgium). SPSS v.22 software was used for all statistical analyses. The statistical significance level was accepted as p<0.05. Results: In the study, cone beam computed tomography images of 50 individuals (29 women and 21 men) were analyzed. Age and mean maxillary sinus volume correlated negatively, weakly, and statistically significantly. There was a statistically significant difference between maxillary sinus volume the values men and women. It was also demonstrated that there was no significant relationship between the right and left maxillary sinus volumes and the nasal septal deviation direction or the existence of concha bullosa. Conclusions: The findings of this study showed that nasal septal deviation and concha bullosa had no effect on maxillary sinus volume. The maxillary sinus volume and increasing age were found to be negatively correlated. It was found that maxillary sinus volume was higher in men than in women.

    How Available are Panoramic Radiographs in the Diagnosis of Interproximal Caries? A Study with Dental Students and Dentists
    (Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi, 2023) Yiğit, Meryem Kaygısız; Akyol, Rıdvan; Yalvaç, Beyza; Dilek, Fatma; Canger, Emin Murat
    Purpose: It was aimed to investigate the usability of panoramic radiographs without bitewing radiographs in the diagnosis of interproximal caries and to compare the performance of trainee dentists and dentists in the diagnosis of interproximal caries on panoramic radiographs. Material and Method: 20 4th grade, 20 5th grade students studying at Erciyes University Faculty of Dentistry and 20 general dentists were included in the study. In the study, images of 11 individuals who had both panoramic and bitewing taken on the same day within the indication in 2020 were used. Initially, radiographs were evaluated by three Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology research assistants, and caries on the interproximal surfaces of posterior teeth were recorded with a consensus on bitewing radiographs. Second, the participants who agreed to participate in the study evaluated only the panoramic radiographs and coded the lesions at the interfaces of the premolar and molar teeth as “0”, “1”, “2”, and “3” according to their depth. Statistical analyzes were performed with SPSS v.22 software. Results: Dentists were the most successful in terms of correct evaluation of teeth in terms of the presence or absence of caries (80.52%). This was followed by class 5 (67.29%) and class 4 (60.12%) students. (p

    Turning performance and factors related to turning in mild and moderate phase Parkinson’s disease patients
    (International Journal of Aging Research, 2018) Soyuer, Ferhan; Cankurtaran, Feyzan; Yiğit, Meryem Kaygısız; Yalvaç, Beyza; Dilek, Fatma; Canger, Emin Murat
    Background/aim: The purpose of study is to determine the turning performance and other factors related to turning in mild and moderate phase Parkinson’s disease patients (PD). Methods: Ninety two patients were followed up for observation. After passing neurological examinations, the Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), Hoehn / Yahr Scale (H&Y), Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Tinetti test, Berg Balance test, 6 m walking test, step count, 360° turning duration, and Functional Independence Measure (FIM) were applied. All cases were evaluated according to the “on” period. Results: Forty one females and 51 males participated in the study. The duration of time it took to turn right was 8.22 ± 6.26 seconds, and the time it took to turn from left was 8.51 ± 6.63 sec. There appeared to be no statistical difference in the turn times of patients either in terms of the socio-economic factors of gender, education level, or employment status. But, statistically significant relationships were found when it came to in both directions, age, duration of illness, UPDRS, FIM, Tinetti, the Berg Test, the walking test, and the number of steps taken. Conclusion: Our results suggest that 360 degree turning performance in mild and moderate stage PD is strongly associated with patient’s age, disease duration and disease severity.
