Vaccination programs for the COVID-19 pandemic are progressing on a global scale. With the help of basic and clinical science, we will soon reach our more active, social days. We will never forget the healthcare professionals who carry the heaviest burden of admissions and hospitalizations.
We are launching the fifth issue of the Gülhane Medical Journal since the beginning of the pandemic in 2020. Meanwhile, the increase in the number of submissions and publications on COVID-19 continues.
In the current issue of the Gülhane Medical Journal, we have interesting original articles, review articles, case reports, and editorials. As always, this latest issue covers a wide range of articles from different disciplines.
I would like to express my gratitude to all submitting authors, reviewers, and editors for their contributions.
