This study named as "Lepidoptera Fauna of the Forest Enterprise Directorate of Kastamonu" was made for determining distribution and presence of Lepidoptera fauna in Kastamonu Forest Enterprise region between 2010-2013 years. Light traps and sweep nets were used to collect the samples from the study area. A total of 70 species belonging to 15 families were identified. The family Nymphalidae was the richest with a number of 13 species. This was followed by Noctuidae (12), Pieridae (10), Geometridae (8), Lycaenidae (6), Satyridae (6), Arctiidae (4), Sphingidae (3), Hesperiidae (2), Papillionidae (1), Zygaenidae (1), Pyralidae (1), Lasiocampidae (1), Saturniidae (1), and Drepanidae (1). Thirty four of captured lepidopter species are listed in the Turkish IUCN Red List as Least Concern (LC). Polyommatus cornelia (Gerhard, 1851) (Lycaenidae) and Maniola megala (Oberthür, 1909) (Satyridae) were determined as endemic and near endemic, respectively.
Patients receiving parenteral nutrition at home suffer from a lower quality of life as they receive continuous therapy for up to 16 hours a day. It is not possible to interrupt nutriton therapy for everyday activities, as any interruption poses a health risk to the patient. Therefore, a ambulatory care services comes twice a day to connect and disconnect. The aim of this project is to develop a system that makes it manageable for patients to interrupt their feeding therapy in a self-determined way. In order to achieve this, enginners and social scientists collaborated to conduct an ergonomics study using the Design of Experiments(DoE) method to compare three commonly used connection systems. Analysis of variance(ANOVA) was used to secure the tests. In parallel, the probands were asked about their subiective feelings during the closure process. The results provided indications for the redesign of a home parenteral nutrition system. As safety is a crucial issue, the opening and closing process of the system was virtually simulated with the min. and max. finger force of the test persons in order to ensure a safe connection and disconnection with the system at all times. Overall, this participatory approach enable the design of the closure system to take account patients'fears wishes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
