Açıklamalar
1. Dil ile İlgili
Soru:
In line 39, you changed to "The number of cell cultures
obtained was more than expected…" But I think "The number
of cell cultures were more than expected…" is appropriate.
Which is better "was" or "were"?
Cevap: Note that a singular/plural
verb is used based on whether the subject is
singular or plural. Also, when using "the
number of," you should use a singular verb. In
the mentioned sentence, the subject is
"number," which is singular, and the
definite article "the" is used. Therefore,
"was" is the appropriate verb in this
case. Please rest assured that the edit is correct,
and we hope that the explanation is satisfactory.
2. Dil Kullanımı ile İlgili
Soru: In the 4th line of Material & Method
section, "Ethanol solution of 6-MP" was suggested to be
changed to "6-MP ethanol solution." I am wondering that
sentence should not be started with Arabic numerals.
Cevap: Thank you clarifying the
change.
In this case, the numeral 6 in the term
"6-MP" does not signify a quantity or a
measurement and is a part of the compound name.
Hence, the rule about a sentence starting with a
numeral does not apply here. For example, a sentence
can start with "5-Carboxymethyl…" but not
"5 patients were enrolled." Moreover,
since the edited term has been used later in the
document, you may retain the edit.
3. Özel Değişiklikler ile İlgili
Soru: Thank you for your editing. I have questions
about third paragraph. Why do you use the word “parameter”? What
differences between the word “parameter” and “categories”?
Cevap: Thank you for your
questions. We have changed “categories” to
“parameters” since each of the three phrases, “the
era of the works,” “the genre,” and “the
narratives”, are characteristics of art. Multiple
categories can be created for any one parameter. For
example, if you distinguish works of art based on
their genre, they can be categorized into
renaissance art, abstract art, postmodern art, etc.
Thus, the usage of the word “parameters” here is
appropriate.
4. Etiketler ile İlgili
Soru: About Paragraph 2,line1 Tag 2.1
Visual Thinking Strategies is not textbook but art appreciation
materials.( for teacher's guide) How can I write it?
Cevap: Based on your clarification,
we feel that “resources” is a better word for
“materials.” However, resources for art appreciation
such as Visual Thinking Strategies, a teacher’s
guide published by Visual Understanding in
Education…
5. Açıklamalar ile İlgili
Soru 1: You said I should mention the limitations
of the investigation in the Introduction section
But what exactly are you pointing out? limitation has the meaning of
"limit", "realm", etc, but what exactly are you
pointing out?
Cevap: Thank you for your response.
Note that journals usually encourage the mention of
limitations of the study in the Introduction and
Discussion sections. By "limitations," we
mean the "obstacles" or
"problems" faced during the course of the
study, which may have hindered or affected the
results in some way, i.e., factors that may affect
the outcomes of the study or are important to
interpretation of the study findings. The commonest
examples are small sample size, volunteer bias,
incomplete follow-up, etc.
Please consider mentioning these in both the
above-mentioned sections only if applicable to your
present study.
Soru 2: In the Acknowledgements, you refer to this
in the more common term “slaughterhouse.” Please check if you can
use one term for consistency and reader clarity.
Reply: Ok, I will use “abattoir” in the manuscript for consistency.
Cevap: Thank you for clarifying and
acknowledging this.
6. Formatlama ile İlgili
Soru: Cover Letter: Please submit, as part of the
covering letter with the manuscript, the names, full affiliation
(department, institution, city and country) and email addresses of
up to 5 potential Referees.

Soru 1: Thank you for your helpful editing. I made
following change after editing: "A discrepancy of 14 mm or <
14 mm between MRI and pathological major axis size occurred in 50 ‰
(5/10) of cases." Is it OK?
Cevap: Thank you for your response.
Please make the following minor revisions: "A
discrepancy of 14 mm or < ?14 mm between MRI and
pathological major axis size occurred was observed
in 50% (5/10) of cases."
Soru 2: I want to change note 6 as follows. Is this
change all right? BEFORE: 6 Fujita interview. Fujita called the book
"a best seller among legislators." AFTER: Fujita called
the book "a best seller among legislators" in the
interview with the author.
Cevap: Yes, you may revise the
sentence as suggested.
Soru 3: Could you tell me which is better I use
"crops" or "cropping"?
In line 27 of final file with insertions and deletions, "gap
between crops."
Cevap: Note that the usage of terms
"crops" and "cropping" differs
with the context. The term "crop" refers
to the yield of a plant in a single growing season
and "cropping" is usually used to refer to
the period when this yield occurs (cropping of
spring wheat or cropping time). Nevertheless, you
may revise the sentence to "Early sprouting
could therefore allow us to fill the gap between
cropping periods" for further clarity.
Soru 1: Dear corrector Thank you for editing, I
have more questions, and e-mailed to you. I am going to submit
journal. The words limit of abstract is 450, but the word count of
my abstract is over (273 words). So I removed the sentence
reluctantly, "The incidence of obesity at baseline examinations
was 3.7% and the incidence of individuals who developed obesity over
the 5-year follow-up was 1.6%."
Please comment my decision was appropriate or not.
Cevap: Thank you for your response.
Note that the sentence mentioned by you for deletion
represents the key results of the manuscript and
would hamper the clarity as well as flow and
transition of the abstract since the subsequent
sentences are linked to this sentence. Therefore, we
are providing a concise version of the abstract,
which is well within the prescribed word count of
the journal (Present word count ~248 words). Please
check. [revised abstract was provided]
Soru 2: The instructions to authors say that a
running title not exceeding 35 letters and spaces should be
provided. So I have to shorten to "Heart function affects hip
fracture results." I hope you will give me a good idea.
Cevap: Thank you for your response.
Note that in order to achieve the desired character
count of 35 characters (including spaces), as
specified by the journal guidelines, we suggest you
to retain the original running title, i.e.,
"Heart function affects hip fracture" for
accuracy.
