Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to be with you with our new issue. We are rapidly taking progress in being indexed in national and international indexes from the last days of 2013, when our journal began to be published, until today. In this context, our application to “Turkish Medical Index” is expected to be resulted in 2016.
We are also pleased especially to be able to include more clinical studies in this issue. Our target is to be able to include more of national and international clinical studies to each issue.
In the study conducted by Başaranoğlu et al., it was determined that general anesthesia was more preferred for cesarean section in Turkish population and it was added that further studies on factors affecting this result were necessary.
In another study conducted by Başaranoğlu et al. on the factors affecting the success of students of vocational school in anesthesia courses, it was shown that methods especially like rewarding would improve the success in courses.
In the study by Rasmi et al., in which the respiratory parameters in physically disabled children were evaluated, it was emphasized that pulmonary rehabilitation programs would be effective in this type of patient group.
In the experimental study conducted by Dündar et al., it was determined that hyperbaric oxygen therapy, when combined with sorafenib, showed a synergetic effect in intracerebral tumor model and thus, it was emphasized that this should be supported with further clinical trials.
We would like to remind that our journal, which aims to be indexed in international databases, has an intention to publish more articles in English from now on.
We welcome you to contribute with your articles such as Review, Original Article, Case Report, and Letter to Editor in English and Turkish; as writer and reviewer in order for our journal to be published on time and periodically.
I would like to emphasize once again that the Bezmialem Science Journal is an Open Access electronic journal that is published independently, without any prejudices, and in every field of medicine with a double blinded review principle.
