    Paediatric inflammatory bowel disease – brief update on current practice

    No full text
    Paediatric inflammatory bowel disease (PIBD), consisting of Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and inflammatory bowel disease unclassified, is a chronic inflammatory condition associated with significant morbidity. The incidence of PIBD is increasing and disease phenotype remains more severe than adult onset disease. Diagnosis of PIBD is often slow and requires referral to specialist services; however, the emergence of faecal calprotectin as a tool for prioritising further investigation, alongside improved use of treatments (including anti-TNF monoclonal antibody therapy) is changing diagnosis and management. Whilst significant challenges remain in the longer-term treatment of PIBD, including growth, nutrition and management of refractory disease there remains a strong research focus on understanding underlying disease pathogenesis and a move towards personalised medicine. This review describes investigations, diagnosis and management of PIBD and presents the most up to date evidence on nutritional and medical management

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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
