    Why Is the Lack of Support for Women's Rights Appealing? Considering the Roles of Dispositional System-Justifying Motives and Ambivalent Sexism
    (American Psychological Association, 2024-11) Özdemir, Fatih; Tayyar, Merve; Topuz, Ömer
    Although the women's rights movement has made various gains in recent years, there are many negative attitudes toward women and their rights in Turkey. This study aimed to examine the relationship between dispositional system-justifying motives and tendency to support women's rights and to test the mediating role of sexist attitudes in this relationship. A total of 530 Turkish adults participated in the online study, with a mean age of 26.20 years (SD = 5.56). The results show that people with high system justification motivation (including dispositional system-justifying motives, high death anxiety, low need for cognition, and high need for recognition) indicated stronger ambivalent sexism toward women (including hostile and benevolent sexist attitudes). In turn, people with ambivalent sexist attitudes had less willingness to support women's rights (considering attitudes toward women's disadvantaged position in society and awareness and support for the Istanbul Convention). © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Genetic Variants in Genes Correlated to the PI3K/AKT Pathway: The Role of ARAP3, CDH5, KIF and RELN Primary Lymphedema
    (International Society of Lymphology, 2024-08-28) Dundar, Mehmet Sait; Belanová, I.; Bonetti, Gabriele; Gelanová, V.; Kozáčiková, R.; Vešelényiová, Dominika; Donato, Kevin; Michelini, S.
    Genetic anomalies affecting lymphatic development and function can lead to lymphatic dysfunction, which could manifest as lymphedema- Understanding the signaling pathways governing lymphatics function is crucial for developing targeted diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. This study aims to characterize genetic variants in genes involved in the PUKIAKT signaling pathway, which plays a critical role in lymphangiogenesis. 408 patients diagnosed with primary lymphedema were sequenced usinga next-generation sequencing (NGS) gene panel composed of 28 diagnostic genes and 71 candidate genes. The analysis revealed six variants in genes RFLN, ARAP3,CDHS and K1F11. Five of these variants have never been reported in the literature. All these genes have been correlated to lymphatic activity and are involved in the P13K/AKT pathway. As the P13K/AKT signaling pathway plays an essential role in lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic function, genetic variants in genes correlated to this pathway could lead to lymphedema. Our findings underscore the potential of the P13K/AKT pathway in lymphedema pathogenesis, supporting the role of RELN,ARAP3,CDH5,and KIF11 as diagnostic and therapeutic targets. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
