    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Progenitor cell-derived smooth muscle cells in vascular disease

    No full text
    Accumulation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in the tunica intima plays a major role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and restenosis following endovascular procedures. Arterial VSMCs are heterogeneous even in the normal vessel wall and display different phenotypes in physiological and pathological conditions. In the classical paradigm, vascular wall injury induces VSMC de-differentiation, proliferation and migration from the media into the intima in response to growth factors and proteolytic agents. Accordingly, VSMCs in atherosclerotic plaques and in restenosis display a de-differentiated or 'synthetic' phenotype compared to a 'contractile' phenotype in the normal media. In contrast, recent studies have identified bone marrow and peripheral blood-derived endothelial and VSMC progenitors that may contribute to intimal formation in atherosclerosis, after arterial injury and in transplant atherosclerosis. The precise frequency of these bone marrow-derived vascular precursor cells is controversial and their role is unknown. In addition, additional data support the presence of a resident progenitor cell subpopulation and its involvement in the response of the adult arterial wall to damage or ischemia. This review will examine the evidence for and the putative role of progenitor cell-derived VSMCs in arterial disease, a necessary prerequisite before deciding whether progenitor cells are therapeutic targets in vascular disease

    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

    Full text link
    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
