Right-to-left shunt and obstructive sleep apnea in cluster headache
No full textIntroduction: Cluster headache (CH) is a trigeminal autonomic cephalalgia characterized by extremely painful, strictly unilateral, headache attacks accompanied by ipsilateral autonomic symptoms. Only few studies investigated a possible role of right-to-left shunt (R-to-LS) and sleep apnea (OSA) in cluster pathogenesis or expression and no prior studies were located that combined the two conditions in CH patients. Objective: To define the potential combined effect of right-to-left shunt and obstructive sleep apnea in patients with cluster headache and their possible influence on the frequency of attacks and on response to oxygen therapy of headache attacks. Methods: 33 patients with cluster headache were recruited and subsequently invited to undergo polysomnography and a transcranial doppler bubble study. Polysomnography is used for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea whereas transcranial doppler bubble study can help diagnose a cardiac right-to-left shunt. Results: Transcranial doppler results demonstrated that 10 out of 31 patients in our cohort had a right-to-left shunt (RLS). Polysomnography revealed that 10 out of 32 patients had obstructive sleep apnea (OSAS). Nineteen out of 33 subjects had one of the two conditions but only one of our 33 patients had both conditions simultaneously. In this sample patients with clear seasonality to their cluster attacks had a higher frequency of obstructive sleep apnea than patients without seasonality. Also a good response to oxygen treatment of the attacks was higher in OSAS patients. Conclusion: the presence of RLS or OSAS, by their possible influence on blood oxygenation, seems to be independently able to predispose to cluster headache or to make it clinically manifest, while the hypothesizable synergistic role between them in favoring cluster headache was not put in evidence. Additionally, our study suggested that the seasonality of cluster headache, may be influenced by the seasonal nature of obstructive sleep apnea. Finally, the presence of sleep breathing alterations seems to be also able to modulate the efficacy of oxygen inhalation on cluster headache attacks

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

Identification of the infant-type R631C mutation in patients with the benign muscular form of CPT2 deficiency.
No full textCarnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (CPT2) deficiency is the most common defect of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation; three different clinical phenotypes have been described but the adult form, involving exclusively the skeletal muscle, is the most frequent. We describe herein 3 families where 4 individuals manifested with the adult form of CPT2 deficiency. CPT2 gene molecular analysis identified the homozygous R631C mutation, so far only reported in severe infantile cases. Our data evidenced that R631C mutation is not exclusively detected in the infantile form but it may be present in a wider spectrum of CPT2 phenotypes. These findings indirectly suggest that other modulators may influence clinical severity of CPT2 deficiency
Localising transnationalism. Researching political and cultural events in a context of migration
No full textSalzbrunn M. Localising transnationalism. Researching political and cultural events in a context of migration. COMCAD Arbeitspapiere - working papers, 17. Bielefeld: COMCAD - Center on Migration, Citizenship and Development; 2007.Migration studies have extensively dealt with networks, transnational spaces and migration fields during the last 15 years. Recently, the focus has gone back to the very local rooting of these transnational spaces: Ludger Pries links geographic and sociological aspects by analysing the "spatial spanning of the social"; Nina Glick Schiller and Ayse çaðlar develop a "theory of locality in migration studies". In francophone social geography there is a similar research agenda influenced by Gildas Simon and in migration sociology there are growing interests in researching local-global embedding processes, such as Alain Tarrius’ "La mondialisation par le bas" (globalization from below). Inspired by these approaches, I give two empirical examples for localising transnationalism: By researching political and cultural events in a context of migration, I will show how the understanding of a specific event within an urban context can help us to recognize the rooting of transnational networks. Therefore, my epistemological focus considers festive events as platforms for the negotiation of inclusion/ exclusion and transformation processes within migration. Minorities and majorities are therefore seen as historically-evolved dynamic categories. This choice avoids taking an a priori-defined ethnic, religious or sociocultural category as a key issue in the processes of communitarization. The link of theoretical debates on rituals and events, on translocal social spaces and on globalization leads to innovative methodological instruments in action theory. These allow us to research festive events and their integrative impact in a migratory context. The 1st example will be the Murid parade in New York, where followers of a Sufi group get successfully integrated in the social and urban space in the United States. The 2nd example shows how origin works temporarily as a resource within festive events in Paris, which finally leads to the emergence of a we-group based on a common belonging to an urban territory
