    Post-Truth Populism as an Emerging Electoral Strategy: The Case of Turkey's 2023 Elections
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2025) Eldem, Tuba
    This article develops a new theoretical framework to explain how right-wing populist incumbents mobilise electoral support in competitive authoritarian regimes. It argues that post-truth populism, defined as the strategic fusion of securitised discourse and emotionally charged identity appeals with epistemic manipulation, enables populist leaders to shape the political battlefield through affective and symbolic narratives rather than policy content. Drawing on discourse analysis of President Recep Tayyip Erdo & gbreve;an's 2023 campaign in Turkey, the article shows how the ruling coalition reframed the elections as an existential struggle against internal and external enemies while simultaneously offering emotionally resonant promises of national revival. Rather than focus solely on institutional advantages or voter grievances, this study foregrounds the discursive agency of populist leaders and their ability to manufacture fear, pride and loyalty. By analysing how Erdo & gbreve;an's campaign displaced economic accountability with emotionally saturated, post-factual narratives, the article contributes to literatures on populism, post-truth politics and securitisation. It argues that the convergence of post-truth politics and populist securitisation forms a powerful mechanism for authoritarian endurance in hybrid regimes, transforming elections into moralised referenda on identity and national survival.

    Prevalence of Fecal Incontinence After Childbirth in Turkey: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
    (Springer London Ltd, 2025) Kaya, Husniye Dinc; Gunaydin, Sevil; Kilic, Melek; Ozdemir, Iclal Ilknur
    BackgroundFecal incontinence (FI), defined as the reduced or lost ability to control the elimination of solid or liquid stool and gas due to anal sphincter dysfunction, is mostly caused by childbirth.AimThis study aimed to determine the prevalence of postpartum fecal incontinence in Turkey.MethodsThis systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted between December 1 and December 31, 2024, considering inclusion and exclusion criteria. The literature search was performed using PubMed, Science Direct, Medline, Ovid, Ebsco CINAHL Plus, and Cochrane Library databases. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed using the checklist developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute.ResultsA total of six studies were included in this review. The combined results indicated that the prevalence of postpartum fecal incontinence in Turkey is approximately 3%. Women who delivered by cesarean section had significantly lower rates of FI than those who delivered vaginally (z = 3.10, p = 0.002, CI: 0.39 [0.21, 0.71]). Additionally, the combined results of the studies showed no significant relationship between fecal incontinence and menopausal status, indicating that premenopausal and postmenopausal women had similar rates of fecal incontinence (z = 0.02, p = 0.98, CI: 0.97 [0.10, 9.47]).ConclusionFecal incontinence can occur after childbirth. The postpartum fecal incontinence rate in Turkey is 3%, and it is associated with the mode of delivery but not with menopausal status. A thorough postpartum examination is recommended for the early detection of fecal incontinence.PROSPERO Registration No: CRD420250653603.ConclusionFecal incontinence can occur after childbirth.

    The Earthquakes in Turkey and Their Effects on Nursing and Community Health
    (Wiley, 2023) Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Dikec, Guel; Harmanci Seren, Arzu Kader
    BackgroundSevere damage was experienced in 10 provinces in Turkey, and the north of Syria, with the earthquakes that hit Kahramanmaras at midnight and afternoon on February 6, 2023. AimThe authors aimed to give brief information to the international nursing community about the situation related to earthquakes in the aspects of nurses. ConclusionThese earthquakes caused traumatic processes in the affected regions. Many people, including nurses and other healthcare professionals, died or were injured. The results demonstrated that the required preparedness had not been applied. Nurses went to these areas voluntarily or on assignment and cared for individuals with injured. The universities in the country passed to distance education because of the shortage of safe places for victims. This situation also negatively influenced nursing education and clinical practice by interrupting in-person education one more time after the COVID-19 pandemic. Implications for nursing and nursing policySince the outcomes show a need for well-organized health and nursing care, policymakers may consider getting nurses' contributions to the disaster preparedness and management policy-making processes.
