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
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Basic research on the influence of obesity, menopause, lymphatics, and honey on the clean healing of full-thickness cutaneous wounds
Full text linkマウスの皮膚創傷全層欠損創に対する治癒への影響を検討した.エストロゲンは卵巣摘出のマウスで創傷治癒促進効果があったが,雄マウスには効果がなかった.効果は雌のみなのかはさらに検討の余地がある.イソフラボンの創傷治癒促進効果はほとんど無かった.肥満マウスは,創作製後に急激に痩せたので,肥満が治癒を遅延させるかは不明であった.リンパ管新生の抑制は治癒を遅延させるようだ.蜂蜜は種類によって創傷または熱傷創の治癒効果は異なることから,いろいろな種類を試す必要がある.We investigated factors that affect the healing of full-thickness cutaneous wounds in mice. Estrogen was effective for wound healing in ovariectomized mouse, but not in male mouse. There is room for further investigation on whether it is effective only in females. The effect of isoflavone on wound healing was not clear. It was also unclear whether obesity caused a delay of wound healing because the obese mice dramatically lost weight after wounding. It is thus necessary to re-examine models of obesity. Inhibition of lymphangiogenesis seemed to delay the healing. Since the effect of honey on wounds or burn wounds depended on the type of honey, it is necessary to evaluate several kinds of honey.研究課題/領域番号:22592363, 研究期間(年度):2010–2012出典：研究課題「肥満、閉経、リンパ管、蜂蜜がきれいな皮膚創傷治癒にどのように影響するかの基礎研究」研究課題番号22592363

The basic research on the effect of cultured lymphatic transplantation and the barrier of scar to lymphatic regeneration
Full text linkHuman lymphatic vessel endothelial cells and mouse adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells were cultured three-dimensionally by the cell stacking method and lymphatic vessels composed of mouse lymphatic vessel endothelial cells were formed.
We investigated the regeneration of lymphatic vessels penetrating the wound scar after the creation of a full-layer cutaneous wound containing collecting lymphatic vessels in the lateral abdomen of mice. Fine capillaries regenerated in the scar, whereas collecting lymphatic vessels did not. Lymphatic vessels that bypassed the scar appeared. This lymphatic detour was not a collecting lymphatic vessel, but an expansion of the pre-collecting lymphatic vessel. These results indicate that the lymphatic detour was formed by backflow from the collecting lymphatic vessels to the pre-collecting lymphatic vessel.人のリンパ管内皮細胞とマウス脂肪組織由来間葉系幹細胞を細胞積層法による三次元培養し，マウスのリンパ管内皮細胞からなるリンパ管を形成することができた．
マウスの側腹に存在する集合リンパ管を含む皮膚創傷全層創を作製後に，創の瘢痕部を貫通する集合リンパ管が再生するかを検討した．瘢痕部には細かな毛細血管は再生されたが，集合リンパ管の再生は起きなかった．代わりに瘢痕部を迂回するリンパ管が出現した．迂回路は集合リンパ管では無く，前集合リンパ管の拡張であった．すなわち，集合リンパ管から前集合リンパ管への逆流によって迂回路が形成された可能性が示された．研究課題/領域番号:18H03072, 研究期間(年度):2018-04-01 - 2021-03-31出典：研究課題「リンパ浮腫に対する培養リンパ管移植の効果と瘢痕組織のリンパ管再生阻害の基礎研究」課題番号18H03072

A basic research by using small animals for nurse care curing beautifully the cutaneous wound
Full text link皮膚創傷治癒に重要な因子を動物実験で示した。創傷治癒過程のどの時期でもタンパク栄養は重要であった。創に角があるとそこが突出した瘢痕になるので,角を作らないようにすることが重要であった。リンパ管が正常に新生されることが重要であった。エストロゲンの存在は重要であった。キトサンオリゴ糖の液やイソフラボンが創傷治癒に有効かどうかはまだ不明で,今後の検討が必要であった。このような結果を利用することが,看護技術・ケアに重要である。研究課題/領域番号:19592433, 研究期間(年度):2007–2009出典：研究課題「皮膚創傷を美しく治癒させる看護ケアのための動物を用いた基礎的研究」課題番号19592433

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
