The Covid-19 pandemic has affected not only the entire world but also the economic indicators and growth rate of Turkey. As a developing economy, Turkey is susceptible to the fluctuations in the value of the United States Dollar (USD), which, in turn, impacts the Turkish Lira (TL) and consequently Turkey's external debt stock.The aim of this study is to reveal whether the USD/TL parity has any moderating effect on Turkey's external debt before and after the Covid-19 pandemic.

Language is a powerful tool for information sharing, catalysing students to evolve into adept global communicators. Learning a new language helps us understand different cultures and ways of life in far-off places. English is a very important language because it's used a lot, and it's like a window that lets us see the whole world. If you're good at speaking English, you can also find more jobs. But sometimes, it's hard for students to take charge of their learning and work well with others. In the past, teachers used to do most of the teaching when it came to English.

Introduction: Parkinson's disease is a chronic and progressive condition with motor and non-motor clinical manifestations due to dopamine deficiency. The respiratory system is affected by alterations in respiratory mechanics and pulmonary ventilation that can be addressed with physiotherapeutic techniques. Objective: Toidentify the respiratory physiotherapy techniques used in Parkinson's disease, their clinical efficacy, and effects on lung function through a systematic review of the scientific literature.

Designing the geographical landscape and transforming it into a place that makes a symbolic, religious, or political statement and connects between landscape, culture and politics is known as "landscape reading". Landscapes etched in a person's memory often take on meanings that go beyond the realistic depictions of the landscape itself. The memory experience depends on the age of the individual or on a particular event that communicates the landscape and is imprinted upon the artist’s individual or collective memory.

This study estimates the technical, allocative and economic efficiency of maize-producing farms in Benin and identifies the determining factors of these efficiencies in a context of adaptation to climate change. To achieve this, data was collected from a sample of 402 corn farmers randomly selected from the municipalities most vulnerable to the effects of climate change and located within the Okpara watershed perimeters.

I will research John Searle’s (1) idea of a social causation as a collective intentionality and (according to my understanding) even more important notion of a background. Furthermore, I will compare Searle’s notions of the collective intentionality and the background of the social to Maurizio Ferraris’s (2) notions of a text as a replacement of the collective intentionality. The problems that Ferraris addresses are understood here in terms of practises. In this article I will look at more contemporary debates in social ontology and in a practise approach.

It's hard to continue believing that women aren't competent, just as it's absurd to hold the argument that all women are eternally incapable or unconcerned about the need to get involved in order to contribute to political governance. So, it's not uncommon to hear it said that women's low presence and participation in decision-making bodies, including political ones, is due to their unwillingness to get involved.

Antecedentes: Una adecuada reanimación hídrica en el paciente neuroquirúrgico, ha demostrado ser un factor relacionado directamente con el desenlace. Existen diferentes métodos y herramientas para guiar la administración de líquidos basado en metas u objetivos, derivado de lo anterior es necesario medir la eficacia y seguridad de la administración de líquidos guiada por Delta CO2 (∆CO2). Estudios reportan que ∆CO2 <6mmHg se correlaciona con mejores resultados. Objetivo.
