    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

N. Shukhtina *, A. A. Avramenko ** * SE Ukrainian Research Institute of Transport Medicine of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, Odessa ** Petro Mohyla Black Sea National University, Nikolaev (Ukraine) [email protected] Abstract The frequency of detection and the degree of colonization of the gastric mucosa by the active and inactive form of Helicobacter pylori infection was analyzed in 50 patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis, suffering from chronic constipation, and in 50 patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis, who did not suffer from constipation. In the group of patients suffering from chronic constipation, the frequency of occurrence of the active form of Helicobacter pylori infection in different topographic zones of the stomach ranged from 46% to 56% with an average degree of mucosal seeding from 1.12 ± 0.13 (+) to 1.48 ± 0.13 (+), the frequency of occurrence of an inactive form of Helicobacter pylori infection in different topographic zones of the stomach ranged from 0% to 48% with an average degree of mucosal colonization from 0 ± 0.0 (+) to 1.30 ± 0.13 (+), while while in the group of patients who did not suffer from chronic constipation, the frequency of occurrence of an act distinct Helicobacter pylori infection in different topographic zones of the stomach ranged from 36% to 52% with an average degree of mucosal seeding from 1.02 ± 0.13 (+) to 1.34 ± 0.13 (+), and the frequency of occurrence of the inactive Helicobacter pylori infections in different topographic zones of the stomach ranged from 0% to 58% with an average degree of mucosal seeding from 0 ± 0.0 (+) to 1.56 ± 0.13 (+). In patients of the first group, the frequency of detection of intracellular "depots" of HP infection was 2.3 times higher than in patients of the second group

Zaporizhya State Medical University, Ukraine; e-mail: [email protected]. Summary. The objective. 1. To analyze both domestic and foreign articles published and study the posibbilities to use mifepristone as a blocker of progesterone receptors in a daily gynecological and obstetrical practice. 2. To elect optimal doses of mifepristone used to the treatment of different gynecological states. Materials and Methods. Literary sources for 1992-2018 concerning preventive and therapeutic use of mifepristone. Results. Mifepristone is a progesterone receptor antagonist that has also antagonistic properties to glycocorticoids, mineralocorticoids and androgen receptors. Single use of mifepristone in dose 600 mg combined with low doses of prostaglandins is an effective medical abortion remedy in I and II trimesters of pregnancy. In the III trimester it can be used once or twice with interval of 24 hours to stimulate contractions of uterus and start the process of childbirth. As an emergency contraceptive agent mifepristone can be used in a dose 10 mg. 3-6 months of 50 mg/day. It can reduce the size of leiomyoma by 50-74%. To treat endometriosis and breast neoplasies miferinone can also be used in combined schemes. However, doses are not defined and vary from 2.5 to 200 mg/day. Amenorrhea is the most common side effect of mifepristone use that appears in nearly 100% of cases independently of applied doses. Conclusions. Mifepristone is an effective anti- gestagene medication that can be used for acute contraception, artificial termination of pregnancy in I and II trimesters, stimulation of childbirth in III trimester, treatment of leiomyoma, endometriosis and breast neoplasy in doses that vary from 5 to 600 mg according to the objectives. Key words: mifepristone, medical treatment, myoma

    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.

    No full text
    Features of the embodiment of the author’s position in the essay by I. A. Goncharov “Pepiniere” are considered. The relevance of the study is due to the poorly studied poetics of this work. A review of the scientific literature on relevant topics is performed. Methodological and theoretical definitions are given. The scientific novelty of the article is in the fact that for the first time attention is paid to artistic techniques that allow to identify the author's position in the specified literary text. The author of the article grounds her opinion from the fact that, despite the dominance of the subjective point of view, other characters’ views stand out in the work. It is concluded in the study that the text of the work represents a biographical author and author-creator. It was established that the position of the author-creator is expressed through the title, epigraphs, which are quotes, as well as through different points of view, including the author-character, the author-narrator, the characters of the work. The author of the article dwells in detail on different ways of expressing the points of view of the author-character and the author-narrator. It is proved that the point of view of the author-character and the author-narrator can intersect, they are interchanged. The author's development of the term comic “point of view” is presented in the article

This research deals with the analysis of the main parameters of the freight operation at the railway station. The modern scientific works on improving the interaction of the station and sidings were analysed. In order to improve the operation interaction of sidings with the Dnipro-Holovnyi railway station and to reduce the time of cars` inactivity, an improved technology of work was proposed. The variants of operation interaction of the station and sidings according to the existing and improved technology were compared. The improved technology of the station's operation makes it possible to significantly reduce the inactivity of local car and the average duration of the car's standing under one cargo operation. The track occupancy coefficient in the receiving-departure yard decreases as well.UKR: Підсумок. У цьому дослідженні йдеться про аналіз основних параметрів вантажної роботи на залізничному вокзалі. Проаналізовано сучасні наукові роботи щодо вдосконалення взаємодії станції та набігів. З метою вдосконалення експлуатаційної взаємодії наїздів із залізничним вокзалом Дніпро-Головний та скорочення часу бездіяльності вагонів було запропоновано вдосконалену технологію роботи. Порівнювались варіанти експлуатації взаємодії станції та наїздів відповідно до існуючої та вдосконаленої технології. Вдосконалена технологія експлуатації станції дозволяє значно знизити бездіяльність місцевого вагона та середню тривалість стояння автомобіля під час однієї вантажної операції. Коефіцієнт зайнятості колій також зменшується.RUS: Итог. В этом исследовании речь идет об анализе основных параметров грузовой работы на железнодорожном вокзале.

Коэффициент занятости путей также уменьшается

    Espai i identitat en l'obra de Jordi Pere Cerdà. Una geografia literària cerdaniana

    No full text
    L'obra de l'autor nord-català Jordi Pere Cerdà (1920-2011) teixeix una cartografia literària que abasta tota dimensió espacial -real, imaginada i ficcional. Les prospeccions que assagen els seus texts es fonen en el medi natural i rural, canten a l'amor, als veïns i als éssers fantàstics del folklore català, es comprometen amb els refugiats encarant-se a tota frontera i, també, a tot abisme interior i exterior que oprimesca l'ésser. El mapatge cognitiu i literari que crea Cerdà sobrepassa qualsevol obstacle per construir espais oberts i possibles, en comunió amb l'altre. Partint d'una aproximació teòrica geocrítica, aquest treball d'investigació aprofundeix en diverses nocions sobre l'espacialitat lligades a un context convuls, ple de transformacions a nivell socioeconòmic, polític, cultural i lingüístic, el qual determinarà la vida d'un autor i d'un territori transfronterer com el de la Cerdanya i la Catalunya del Nord. En definitiva, la rica experiència vital de Jordi Pere Cerdà ens permet reflexionar sobre les relacions que vulguem establir entre els individus i amb el nostre hàbitat natural i cultural, a fi d'esdevenir membres actius que participen de la transformació dels espais que configuren les nostres identitats.The work of the North Catalan author Jordi Pere Cerdà (1920-2011) weaves a literary cartography which reaches all spatial dimensions -real, imagined and fictional. The prospections proved by their texts merge with the natural and rural environment, sing to love, neighbours and the fantastic beings of the Catalan folklore. Such prospections also commit themselves with the refugees facing every frontier and, also, facing all interior and exterior abyss that oppresses the being. The cognitive and literary mapping created by Cerdà overcomes any obstacle to construct opened and possible spaces, in communion with the other. Based on the theoretical approach called geocriticism, this research study delves into various notions about spatiality linked to a convulsive context, full of transformations at a socioeconomic, political, cultural and linguistic level; these transformations will determine the life of an author and a cross-border territory such as Cerdagne and Northern Catalonia. In short, the rich experience of Jordi Pere Cerdà allows us to reflect on the relationships we want to establish between individuals, as well as between human groups and our natural and cultural habitat, in order to become active members that participate in the transformation of the spaces that make up our identities.Programa de Doctorat en Llengües Aplicades, Literatura i Traducci

    Treball Final de Grau en Mestre o Mestra d'Educació Primària (Pla de 2018). Codi: MP1840. Curs acadèmic: 2021/2022El treball de fi de grau que aneu a veure a continuació, és un projecte que consisteix en com es poden treballar a les aules de primària els llibres de l’autora i il·lustradora Olga de Dios. Tractant de treballar el llibre com a objecte artístic a nivell elemental. A més, de presentar a l’autora i il·lustradora, donarla a conèixer i veure els valors que transmet, també llegiríem quatre de les seues obres a l’aula com són: “Leotolda”, “En familia”, “Rana de Tres Ojos”, i “Pájaro Amarillo”. Tot açò sumat a la realització d’un quadern de classe on es colorejaria alguns dels seus personatges de les obres seguint pautes a nivell curricular. Realitzaríem també una eixida a la biblioteca municipal, on a banda de rebre una educació no formal, ens facilitaria una mica el fet d’endinsar-nos al món de la il·lustració infantil, on allí dins, el professional encarregat ens guiarà pels llibres que hi haurà a la biblioteca. I, per a concloure, elaboraríem un llibre creat per l’alumnat on seguint unes pautes establertes per Olga de Dios al seu llibre “Leotolda” buscaríem fer una retroalimentació intentant contactar amb ella. D’aquesta manera tancaríem el cicle que vam començar donant-la a conèixer com a escriptora i il·lustradora, i exploraríem on està el límit de la creativitat del propi alumnat.The final degree project you are going to see below is a project that looks at how books by author and illustrator Olga de Dios can be worked on in primary school classrooms. Considering the book as an artistic object at an elementary level. Besides presenting the author and illustrator, introducing her, and seeing the values she transmits, we would also read four of her works in the classroom, such as: "Leotolda”, "In the family", "Three-Eyed Frog", and "Yellow Bird.". All this, in addition to the creation of a class notebook in which some of his characters from her work would be colored following guidelines at the curricular level. We would also go out to the local library, where in addition to receiving a non-formal education, it would make it a little easier for us to enter the world of children's illustration, where inside, the professional in charge will guide us through the books which will be in the library. And, to conclude, we would make a book created by the students, where following some guidelines established by Olga de Dios in her book "Leotolda" we would look for feedback by trying to contact her. In this way, we would close the cycle that we started by presenting her as an author and illustrator, and we would explore where the limit of creativity of the students themselves is

    The construction of Karen Karnak: The multi-author-function

    No full text
    This thesis is situated within the comparatively recent developments of Web 2.0 and the emergence of interactive WikiMedia, and explores the mode of authorship within a Read/Write culture compared to that of a Read/Only tradition. The hypothesis of this study is that the role of the audience has become merged with the author, and as such, represents new functions and attributes, distinct from a more conventional concept of authorship, in which the roles of audience and author are more separate. Read/Write and participatory culture, as defined by this study, is focused on collaboration, and includes the influences of D.I.Y. culture, Open-Source practices and the production of text by multiple authors. Multi-authorship presents a re-thinking of several concepts which support the notion of the individual author, since the focus of multi-authorship is not on attribution and ownership of a finished text, but on the continued malleability of a text. Modes of multi-authorship, demonstrated in the use of the pseudonyms Alan Smithee and Karen Eliot, represent declarative authors whose names signify multiple origins, whilst concurrently indicating a distinct body of work. The function of these names form an important context to this study, since primary research involves the construction of an experimental mode of multi-authorship utilising WikiMedia technology and the interaction of thirty nine participants, who are invited to create a body of work under the collective pseudonym Karen Karnak. The data generated by this experiment is analysed using aspects of Michel Foucault's author-function to identify and determine power structures inherent in the WikiMedia context. The interplay of power structures, including concepts such as identity, ownership and the body of work, affect the resulting mode of authorship and contribute to the construction of Karen Karnak, suggesting further areas of research into the emerging multi-author
