Editorial Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Health care cost of socioeconomic inequalities: A pioneering population-wide study(American Public Health Association Inc. ajph.subscriptions@apha.org, 2019) Durmuş Özdemir; Hulya Ozkan Ozdemir; Özdemir, Durmuş; Özdemir, Hülya Özkan[No abstract available]Book Citation - Scopus: 3Applied Statistics For Economics And Business(Springer International Publishing, 2016) Durmuş Özdemir; Özdemir, DurmuşThis textbook introduces readers to practical statistical issues by presenting them within the context of real-life economics and business situations. It presents the subject in a non-threatening manner with an emphasis on concise easily understandable explanations. It has been designed to be accessible and student-friendly and as an added learning feature provides all the relevant data required to complete the accompanying exercises and computing problems which are presented at the end of each chapter. It also discusses index numbers and inequality indices in detail since these are of particular importance to students and commonly omitted in textbooks. Throughout the text it is assumed that the student has no prior knowledge of statistics. It is aimed primarily at business and economics undergraduates providing them with the basic statistical skills necessary for further study of their subject. However students of other disciplines will also find it relevant. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.

This article uses quarterly data between 1997 and 2013 to estimate key elasticities of the Turkish demand for wine. No prior study has estimated specific elasticities for wine consumption and the results also indicate that the high taxation policy is significantly reducing the wine demand and production in Turkey. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.

Ari; Hulya Ozkan Ozdemir; Fatma Nur Karaman Kabadurmuş; Selma Yegane Tosun; Durmuş Özdemir; Ari, Alpay; Ozdemir, Hulya Ozkan; Özkan Özdemir, Hülya; Ozdemir, Durmus; Tosun, Selma; Kabadurmus, Fatmanur KaramanThis paper clarifies the medical and socio-economic factors affecting the prevalence of COVID-19 by using clinical and survey data in a binary probit model. Socio-economic factors are associated with risk of infection and can increase exposure to and mortality from COVID-19. Inequalities in socio-economic variables affect the prevalence to different degrees. Disparities in education and poverty are more important than being employed or being a smoker for the spread of COVID-19 we find evidence that confirms the hypothesis. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.

Study is conducted at the Izmir Bozyaka Education and Training Hospital Department of Infectious Diseases and Clinical Microbiology and analyzes the impact of demographic socio-economic and clinical factors of HIV stigma which includes three dimensions of stigma: internalized anticipated and enacted. This paper uses clinic data recorded by patients and healthcare professionals of the outpatient clinic. In order to obtain socio-economic measures patients were interviewed face-to-face. We employ a logistics regression model that aligns with our binary stigma variables. Robustness checks include Ordinary Least Squares and Ordered Logistics models. Our results show that age and marital status are the 2 important demographic factors that affect stigmatized attitudes. Divorced PLWHA have a higher degree of both internalized and anticipated stigma. We find that educated people have a lower degree of internalized stigma. In addition a higher-income level is found to be inversely associated with enacted stigma. Our results also reveal that LGBTs drug users and people who have chronic illnesses have experienced higher stigma levels. This paper explores the complex ways socioeconomic factors contribute to stigma in the Turkish context addressing a significant gap in the literature since the cultural and social dynamics of stigma in Turkey are frequently overlooked. Recognizing the protective influence of education and income policies such as integrating HIV education into school curricula and offering financial assistance to PLWHA especially those from low-income backgrounds can help reduce stigma.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8The determinants of employability of people living with HIV/AIDS in Turkey(WILEY, 2020) Huelya Ozkan Ozdemir; Selma Tosun; Durmus Ozdemir; Elif Korkmaz; Ozdemir, Huelya Ozkan; Ozdemir, Durmus; Tosun, Selma; Korkmaz, ElifBackground This study addresses an important field within HIV research the factors affecting the determinants of the employability of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV) in Turkey. The employability of PLHIV is now even more vital because the use of antiretroviral therapy improves the quality of life of patients. In spite of this the related literature suggests that there are serious impediments to the employment of PLHIV who face considerable levels of discrimination based on their HIV status. Methods This is a cohort study of 170 PLHIV of working age treated at the Izmir Bozyaka Education and Training Hospital. We use a univariate logistic model to determine the effects of all determinants of interest with probit/logit modeling and penalized maximum likelihood estimation to avoid bias and to test the robustness of results. Results Age time since diagnosis work status at diagnosis wealth status illicit drug use and CD4 cell count were significantly related to the employability of PLHIV. Younger individuals had a higher probability of workforce participation. HIV-infected patients aged 19 to 39 and 40 to 54 years were 32% and 20% more likely respectively to be employed. Economically better-off PLHIV were more likely to participate in the labor force and HIV patients who were working at the time of diagnosis were more likely to be re-employed. Time since diagnosis was negatively associated with the employment status. Compared to recently diagnosed patients PLHIV for more than a decade were less likely to be employed. Those with high CD4 cell counts were more likely to be employed. Illicit drug use was negatively associated with employment and drug-addicted HIV patients were less likely to be employed. Higher education did not significantly predict the employability of PLHIV. Conclusions Our results suggest that besides immunological status socioeconomic factors play a substantial role in the employability of PLHIV. We suggest that even if a patient is skilled educated and qualified for the job other factors such as stigma and employment discrimination in the workplace may hinder employment even among highly educated PLHIV.Article Citation - WoS: 26Citation - Scopus: 27The impact of economic and social factors on the prevalence of hepatitis B in Turkey(BMC, 2018) Selma Tosun; Olgu Aygun; Hulya Ozkan Ozdemir; Elif Korkmaz; Durmus Ozdemir; Ozdemir, Hulya Ozkan; Aygun, Olgu; Ozdemir, Durmus; Tosun, Selma; Korkmaz, ElifBackground: Viral Hepatitis is one of the major global health problems affecting millions of people every year. Limited information is available on the impact of social and economic factors on the prevalence of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) in Turkey. This study contrary to other studies in the literature was undertaken with the aim of examining the Majority of the excluded data come from the volunteers. Methods: There are medical and the social-economic factors affecting the prevalence of HBV. This research while taking medical factors as control variables clarify the social and economic factors affecting the prevalence of HBV by utilising clinical data with the use of the Binary Probit Model (BPM). The BPM estimation is a powerful tool to determine not only the factors but explain also the exact impacts of each factor. Results: The estimations of the BPM shows that economic and social variables such as age gender migration education awareness social welfare occupation are very important factors for determining HBV prevalence. Compared to the youngest population the 46 to 66+ age group has a higher prevalence of HBV. The male respondents were 5% more likely to develop HBV compared to females. When region-specific differences are taken into account migrating from the poorest parts of the country such as the eastern and south-eastern regions of Turkey are approximately 16% more likely to be infected. The welfare indicators such as a higher number of rooms in the respondent's house or flat decreases the probability of having HBV and relatively higher income groups are less likely to develop HBV compared to labourers. The Self-employed/Business owner/Public sector worker category are approximately 10% less likely to develop HBV. When people are aware of the methods of prevention of HBV they are 6% less likely to be infected. Previous HBV infection history increases the probability of having HBV again B by 17%. Conclusions: These findings strongly suggest that the impact of social and economic factors on the prevalence of HBV is vital. Any improvements in these factors are likely to reduce prevalence of HBV.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4The impact of socioeconomic factors on the healthcare costs of people living with HIV in Turkey(BMC, 2020) Hulya Ozkan Ozdemir; Selma Tosun; Fatma Nur Karaman Kabadurmus; Durmus Ozdemir; Özdemir, Hülya Özkan; Özdemir, Durmuş; Tosun, Selma; Kabadurmuş, Fatma Nur KaramanBackgroundThis study addresses an important field within HIV research the impact of socioeconomic factors on the healthcare costs of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV). We aimed to understand how different socioeconomic factors could create diverse healthcare costs for PLHIV in Turkey.MethodsData were collected between January 2017 and December 2017. HIV-positive people attending the clinic who had been referred to the national ART programme from January 1992 until December 2017 were surveyed. The questionnaire collected socioeconomic data. The cost data for the same patients was taken from the electronic database Probel Hospital Information Management System (PHIMS) for the same period. The PHIMS data include costs for medication (highly active antiretroviral therapy or HAART) laboratory pathology radiology polyclinic examination and consultation hospitalisation surgery and intervention blood and blood products supplies and other costs. Data were analysed using STATA 14.2 to estimate the generalised linear model (GLM).ResultsThe findings of our GLM indicate that age gender marital and parental status time since diagnosis employment wealth status illicit drug use and CD4 cell count are the factors significantly related to the healthcare cost of patients. We found that compared with people who have AIDS (CD4 cells <200 cells/mm(3)) people who have a normal range of CD4 cells ( 500 cells/mm(3)) have $1046 less in expenditures on average. Compared to younger people (19-39years) older people (>= 55) have $1934 higher expenditures on average. Costs are $644 higher on average for married people and $401 higher on average for people who have children. Healthcare costs are $518 and $651 higher on average for patients who are addicted to drugs and who use psychiatric drug(s) respectively. Compared to people who were recently diagnosed with HIV people who were diagnosed >= 10years ago have $743 lower expenditures on average.ConclusionOur results suggest that in addition to immunological status socioeconomic factors play a substantial role in the healthcare costs of PLHIV. The key factors influencing the healthcare costs of PLHIV are also critical for public policy makers healthcare workers health ministries and employment community programs.
