Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

The most noble and famous travels of Marco Polo [title page of the first edition].
No full textAt the age of seventeen, the Venetian Marco Polo (1254-1324) travelled with his merchant father, Nicolo, and his uncle, Maffeo, to the court of Kublai Khan. Polo was away from Venice for twenty-four years. His account of his travels and of the Peking (Beijing) court and its riches afforded the European world its first knowledge of the East. To some his stories were so fantastic that he was dubbed Marco Millioni, 'man of a million lies'
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Proinflammatory microglial response is a common mechanism of Aroclor 1254- and Tetrabromobisphenol-A-induced neurotoxicity in immature chronically exposed rats
No full textPolychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are dominant environmental and food contaminants. Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is the most widely used BFR in the world to improve the fire safety of laminates in electrical and electronic equipment. Aroclor 1254, one of the PCBs, is widely distributed in the environment due to its extensive use in industrial applications around the world. Both groups of substances are potent toxicants. There is also increasing evidence that they have neurotoxic effects. In this study we tested the pro-inflammatory effects of Aroclor 1254 and TBBPA based on markers of microglial reactivity and levels of pro-inflammatory factors in the brain of immature rats. Aroclor 1254 or TBBPA were administered to the rats by oral gavage for two weeks at a dose of 10 mg/kg b.w. Both light and electron microscopy studies revealed features indicative of microglia activation in brains of exposed rats. Morphological changes were associated with overexpression of pro-inflammatory enzymes such as inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Analysis of cytokine/chemokine array revealed significant secretion of inflammatory mediators following exposure to both TBBPA and Aroclor 1254, which was stronger in the cerebellum than in the forebrain of exposed immature rats. The results indicate a pro-inflammatory profile of microglia activation as one of the neurotoxic mechanisms of both examined toxicants
