The ICAM-1 antisense oligonucleotide ISIS-3082 prevents the development of postoperative ileus in mice
1 Intestinal manipulation (IM) during abdominal surgery triggers the influx of inflammatory cells, leading to postoperative ileus. Prevention of this local muscle inflammation, using intercellular adhesion molecule-1 ( ICAM-1) and leukocyte function-associated antigen-1-specific antibodies, has been shown to shorten postoperative ileus. However, the therapeutic use of antibodies has considerable disadvantages. 2 The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effect of ISIS-3082, a mouse-specific ICAM-1 antisense oligonucleotide, on postoperative ileus in mice. 3 Mice underwent a laparotomy or a laparotomy combined with IM after treatment with ICAM-1 antibodies, 0.1-10 mg kg(-1) ISIS-3082, saline or ISIS-8997 ( scrambled control antisense oligonucleotides, 1 and 3 mg kg(-1)). At 24 h after surgery, gastric emptying of a (TC)-T-99m labelled semi-liquid meal was determined using scintigraphy. Intestinal inflammation was assessed by myeloperoxidase ( MPO) activity in ileal muscle whole mounts. 4 IM significantly reduced gastric emptying compared to laparotomy. Pretreatment with ISIS-3082 ( 0.1-1 mg kg(-1)) as well as ICAM-1 antibodies ( 10 mg kg(-1)), but not ISIS-8997 or saline, improved gastric emptying in a dose-dependent manner. This effect diminished with higher doses of ISIS-3082 ( 3-10 mg kg(-1)). 5 Similarly, ISIS-3082 ( 0.1-1 mg kg(-1)) and ICAM-1 antibodies, but not ISIS-8997 or higher doses of ISIS-3082 ( 3-10mg kg(-1)), reduced manipulation-induced inflammation. Immunohistochemistry showed reduction of ICAM-1 expression with ISIS-3082 only. 6 ISIS-3082 pretreatment prevents postoperative ileus in mice by reduction of manipulation-induced local intestinal muscle inflammation. Our data suggest that targeting ICAM-1 using antisense oligonucleotides may represent a new therapeutic approach to the prevention of postoperative ileu
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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

Variations on the Author
“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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
