Research paper thumbnail of Filiation: A Historical Term the COVID-19 Outbreak Recalled in Turkey

Erciyes medical journal, 2020

Concerning medicine, however, it refers to the connection of things resulting from one another, or contact tracing. The core idea behind filiation as a measure of precaution against outbreaks is to prevent the disease by interrupting the chain of transmission with a systematical tracing and isolation of susceptible individuals having contact with any confirmed cases. Filiation became a widely used medical term in the first quarter of the 19 th century, primarily in French medical literature, soon adapted to English and some other languages. In the Ottoman Empire, it appeared in medical journals in the 1850s, used primarily by some European physicians practicing in the country. As part of various measures that have been taken to tackle the current pandemic of COVID-19, the method of filiation was also recalled by the medical community. Soon after the observance of the first confirmed case of COVID-19 in Turkey on March 11, 2020, the index case and its contacts were identified and the Turkish Ministry of Health launched the procedures of filiation at a national level with ad-hoc medical teams established around the country. Aiming to shed light on the etymological and historical aspects of filiation, the current review discusses the concept based on original resources.

Sie bieten die Gelegenheit, Errungenschaften zu feiern, historische Meilensteine zu reflektieren und das Verständnis sowie die Wertschätzung für unterschiedliche Kulturen und Berufsgruppen zu fördern. Dadurch bereichern sie unsere kollektive menschliche Erfahrung. Vor dem Hintergrund der Gründung der Internationalen Gesellschaft für die Geschichte der Pharmazie am 18. August 1926 in Hall in Tirol, Österreich, schlage ich vor, den Internationalen Tag der Pharmaziegeschichte jährlich am 18. August zu begehen. Dies würde unserem reichen Erbe und den bedeutenden Beiträgen namhafter Pharmaziehistoriker wie Hermann Schelenz, George Urdang und Eugene-Humbert Guitard Anerkennung zollen. Darüber hinaus soll dieser Vorschlag die Gründung der Gesellschaft feiern und die umfassende Geschichte sowie die Errungenschaften im Bereich der Pharmazie würdigen.

We administered a structured questionnaire to 160 undergraduate students (response rate of 86.3%) who have taken pharmaceutical history courses at the Erciyes University Faculty of Pharmacy in the past three years. We observed that 42.8% of the participants valued leadership as a very important skill that a pharmacist should possess through his/her professional career, of which 54.2% were very interested in pharmaceutical history. There is a statistically significant relationship between participants' opinions on the importance of leadership and their levels of interest in pharmaceutical history. Our findings suggest that the participants valuing leadership as a very important skill are more interested in pharmaceutical history than those valuing leadership as an unimportant skill. This result indicates that pharmaceutical history courses can serve as an effective tool for developing pharmacy students' awareness and attitudes toward professional leadership.

We agree with the authors that the phrase "a forgotten disease" aptly describes the subtle aspects of this condition that creates challenges in diagnosis. Herein, we aim to emphasize the salient aspects of this syndrome through a historical and biochemical approach that provides a method for clinicians to perhaps better recall its key clinical features.

Hence, through meticulous observations, these signs complimented other findings found on physical examination to further assist in supporting the diagnosis of pericardial disease.

From Aesop’s Fables to Anderson’s tales, or Doris Buchanan Smith’s A Taste of Blackberries (1973) to Patrick Ness’s A Monster Calls (2011), numerous literary works give reference to death, dying, and bereavement. One of the best examples in children’s literature of modern times is found in the fantasy novel Tuck Everlasting (1975), written by the American author Natalie Babbitt (1932–2016), which has sold more than five million copies and was also adopted into two feature films and a musical. Exploring themes of immortality, life, and death, Tuck Everlasting is very likely to aid children in conceptualizing the meaning of death. Considering the fact that the book has been translated into many major languages of the world, it is widely accessible for young school children as well.
