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

Role of sentinel lymph node biopsy with indocyanine green and site of injection in endometrial cancer
Purpose of reviewThe aim of the present narrative review is to summarize the state of art on sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in endometrial cancer, with a special focus on indocyanine green (ICG) as adopted tracer.Recent findingsOver the years, the surgical nodal staging in patients with endometrial cancer has been intensively investigated. Traditionally, systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy represented the gold standard surgical treatment to assess nodal involvement of the tumor. Through the last two decades, SLNB has gradually replaced lymphadenectomy as a more targeted procedure. A great heterogeneity of tracers and injection techniques have been proposed to perform SLNB. However, no universally accepted recommendations are still available.SummarySLNB has nowadays almost replaced pelvic lymphadenectomy in low-risk endometrial cancers, offering a better safety profile while being related to a comparable nodal involvement sensitivity. Currently, ICG is considered to be the most used tracer among others. Different injection sites have been proposed, with different detection features. While ICG cervical injection is nowadays the suggested technique for SLNB, noncervical injection techniques, such as hysteroscopic and combined procedures, seem to have a better accuracy in para-aortic nodal assessment, which have a role in high-risk endometrial cancers

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
