    The Rise of Artificial Intelligence in Vascular Surgery: a Bibliometric Analysis (2020-2024)
    (Turkish National Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Society, 2024) Tosun, Burcu; Demirkılıç, Ufuk
    Aim: This study aims to perform a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of academic publications on AI applications in vascular surgery, identifying key authors, influential journals, prevalent research themes, and international collaborations, focusing on infrastructure, conceptual structure, and social networks within the field.Material and Methods: The analysis covers 815 documents published from 2020 to 2024, retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. Metrics analyzed include publication growth, citation rates, key contributors, leading journals, prevalent themes, and international collaborations.Results: The research output showed a 15% annual growth rate, peaking in 2023. Despite increasing publications, the average citation rate per article declined. The study identified 5039 contributors with significant international co-authorship. Leading authors included Lareyre F and Raffort J, and the \"Journal of Vascular Surgery\" was the most influential journal. The USA and China led in contributions, reflecting robust research infrastructure. Key themes include risk assessment, diagnostic methods, and patient management, highlighting AI's role in enhancing diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and patient outcomes in vascular surgery.Conclusion: The analysis highlights the rapid growth and collaborative nature of AI research in vascular surgery. Key contributors, influential journals, and emerging themes were identified, emphasizing AI's role in improving diagnostics and patient outcomes. Limitations include the focus on one database and a five-year period, suggesting future research should include more databases and a longer timeframe. Exploring high-impact studies and practical applications will further advance the field.

    Revolutionizing Glaucoma Care: Harnessing Artificial Intelligence for Precise Diagnosis and Management
    (Gazi Eye Foundation, 2025) Ucgul, A.Y.; Aktaş, Z.
    Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, necessitating early detection and effective management to prevent vision loss. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have revolutionized glaucoma care by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, monitoring disease progression, and personalizing treatment strategies. AI models, including machine learning and deep learning algorithms, have demonstrated exceptional performance in analyzing fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, and visual field data, surpassing traditional diagnostic methods. Convolutional neural networks have shown high sensitivity and specificity in detecting glaucomatous changes, while vision transformers and hybrid AI models further refine risk assessment and prognosis. Additionally, AI-powered monitoring systems utilizing multi-modal data integration allow for more precise prediction of disease progression and the need for surgical intervention. The incorporation of AI into telemedicine and wearable intraocular pressure sensors extends glaucoma management to remote and underserved populations. Despite these advancements, challenges remain, including issues related to algorithm generalizability, data standardization, bias, and ethical concerns regarding AI-driven clinical decision-making. To maximize AI’s potential in glaucoma care, further interdisciplinary research, regulatory oversight, and multi-center validation studies are needed. By addressing these challenges, AI can be effectively integrated into clinical practice, leading to improved early detection, enhanced treatment strategies, and more personalized patient care. The future of AI in glaucoma management holds great promise, paving the way for a more data-driven and patient-centered approach to combating this sight-threatening disease. © 2024 The author(s).

    University Librarians’ Perceptions Of Artificial Intelligence, Its Application Areas İn Libraries, And The Future;
    (University and Research Librarians Association (UNAK), 2024) Cuhadar, Sami; Gurdal, Gultekin; Erken, Mehmet; Mert, Selma; Gezer, Cagatay; Helvacıoğlu, Ece; Atli, Songül
    Günümüzde kütüphaneler, değişen teknoloji ve yeniliklerden etkilenen kurumlar arasında yer almaktadır. Yapay zeka teknolojilerinin popüler hale gelmesi, kütüphane hizmetlerini de dönüştürmeye başlamıştır. Bu araştırmada, Türkiye’deki üniversite kütüphanelerinin yapay zeka teknoloji ve uygulamalarının gelişim sürecinde yapmış olduğu ve yapmayı planladığı düzenlemeleri tespit etmek ve ilgili döneme özel geliştirdikleri hizmetleri belirlemek amacıyla bir anket uygulanmıştır. Anket, Türkiye’deki 208 üniversite kütüphanesinden 111 üniversite kütüphanesi yöneticisinin katılımıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Verilerin analizi ile üniversite kütüphanelerinin yapay zeka teknolojileri ve uygulamaları hakkındaki durumu, bilgi ve farkındalık düzeyleri belirlenmiş, eksik ve zayıf yönlerin geliştirilmesine yönelik önlemler ve öneriler sunulmuştur. İlgili araştırma, yapay zeka konusunda Türkiye’de üniversite kütüphanesi yöneticilerinden görüş ve öneri alarak gerçekleştirilen ilk ve en kapsamlı çalışmadır. Araştırma bulguları, üniversite kütüphanelerinin ChatGPT, Gemini, Grammarly vb. yapay zeka uygulamalarını belirli düzeyde kullandıklarını ancak yapay zeka ile ilgili kurumsal politika geliştirme, personele yetkinlik kazandırma ve planlama konularında ihtiyaçlarının olduğunu ortaya çıkarmıştır.
