Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Novel clinically relevant genes in GIST--letter.
No full textSchoppmann and colleagues (1) have recently investigated 174 gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) by DNA array, FISH, exome sequencing, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) and found that the majority of recurrent chromosomal imbalances were located in 12 regions of interest and that the loss of 1p and immunohistochemical expression of RAD54L2, SYNE2, KIT, and DIAPH1 were associated with survival
