From the Editor

Dear Readers;
We are publishing the December 2023 issue of our Journal of Mevlana Medical Sciences with your valuable contributions. With this issue, we have completed the 3rd year of our journal. With this issue, we continue our publishing life with the contributions of many authors from inside and outside the institution. 

Associate Professor Pembe Oltulu has contributed immensely to the development of the journal to where it is today and recently retired from the editorship of the journal. I thank him. He has worked day and night on the careful preparation of each issue and the publication of the journal. We are proud of the point our journal has reached in a short period of three years. I would like to thank Associate Professor Pembe Oltulu for her work so far and wish her continued success in her new position. 

This issue contains 7 research articles and 3 case reports. We believe that these studies, which we believe will contribute to the literature, will be read with interest.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the authors who have chosen us for their articles, to our reviewers who have made their valuable contributions to the articles, to the Associate Editors who have carefully carried out the article evaluation process, and to the NeüPress family who have ensured the publication of the journal.

With your contributions, we aim to publish better issues in our next editions. Under the guidance of science, we aim to produce numbers that support new developments and give new ideas to you, the researchers.
Best regards. 
Associate Professor Abdullah Arslan
