Dear Annals of Medical Reseach family, The October 2021 issue of our journal has been published online, again with your contributions, with quality original research articles. In the last 2 years, when we experienced the pandemic process, face-to-face scientific meetings could not be held or were held online with limited participation. Therefore, by publishing original research articles online in our journal with free full-text access, the results of these studies have been made available to large audiences internationally. We would like to thank all our readers, writers and referees for their valuable contributions. We wish the pandemic process to end as soon as possible, wish you healthy days,
