    La Queiloscopía, se presenta como una herramienta forense valiosa dentro del campo de la odontología legal, al ofrecer un método para la identificación de individuos a través del análisis detallado y la clasificación de las marcas únicas que configuran los surcos en los labios. Por lo tanto el presente estudio tuvo finalidad determinar las características queiloscópicas heredables entre padres e hijos Shipibo-Konibo de la comunidad de Cantagallo, Lima-2023. Fue un estudio de tipo observacional, descriptivo y transversal. Participaron 63 personas la comunidad Shipibo-Konibo de Cantagallo a quienes se les tomo la impresión de su huella labial con ayuda de un lápiz de labio y una hoja bond, las cuales mediante la ayuda de una ficha queiloscópica se recopiló la información de los tipos de surcos labiales, comisuras labiales y grosor labial. Obteniéndose como resultado coincidencias en el grosor de labios entre madres e hijos, el 44.4% en el grosor mediano, 25% labios gruesos y 50% de grosor tipo mixto. Así mismo coincidencias en los labios entre padres e hijos, el 50% de grosor delgado, 44.4% en el grosor mediano, y 50% en el grosor mixto. En el tipo de comisura labial se observó que, dentro de las 21 familias, mostraron semejanza en el tipo de comisura labial horizontal (8) y abatidas (6) entre las madres y sus hijos, y horizontal (7) y abatidas (3) entre padres e hijos. En cuanto a los tipos de surcos labiales se encontró homogeneidad entre los tipos de surcos labiales entre madres, padres e hijos (Chi2 p>0.05), puesto que existe mayor frecuencia de surcos bifurcados o tipo II en los cuatro cuadrantes de los labios. Concluyendo una influencia hereditaria en el grosor de los labios, particularmente en los tipos mediano, y una fuerte semejanza familiar en el tipo de comisura labial horizontal. Respecto a los surcos labiales, la predominancia del tipo bifurcado en todos los grupos indica una característica común dentro de estas familias.Queiloscopy is presented as a valuable forensic tool within the field of legal dentistry, offering a method fot the identification of individuals through the detailed analysis and classification of the unique marks that configure the grooves on the lips. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the heritable queiloscopic characteristics between parents and children of the Shipibo- Konibo community of Cantagallo, Lima- 2023. This was an observational, descriptive, and cross- sectional study. Participants were 63 people from the Shipibo- Konibo community of Cantagallo. Their lip prints were taken using a lip pencil and a bond paper. Information on lio groove types, lip commissures, and lip thickness was collected using a cheiloscopic record. The results obtained showed coincidences in lip thickness between mothers and children, with 44.4% in medium thickness, 25% in thick lips, and 50% in mixed thickness. Likewise, coincidences in lips between fathers and children were 50% in thin thickness, 44.4% in medium thickness, and 50% in mixed thickness. In the type of lip commissure, it was observed that within the 21 families, there was similarity in the horizontal (8) and downturned (6) types of lip commissure between mothers and their children, and horizontal (7) and downturned (3) between fathers and children. Regarding the types of lip grooves, homogeneity was found among the types of lip grooves between mothers, fathers, and children (Chi2 p>0.05), as there is a higher frequency of bifurcated or type II grooves in all four quadrants of the lips. Concluding a hereditary influence on lip thickness, particularly in medium types, and a strong familial resemblance in the horizontal type of lip commissure. Regarding lip grooves, the predominance of the bifurcated type in all groups indicates a common characteristic within these families.Innovación en salud integral y gestión sanitaria

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We 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 text
    We 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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
