Treatment of Moderate-to-Severe Psoriasis in the Presence of Kaposi's Varicelliform Eruption
No full textKaposi's varicelliform eruption (KVE) is a disseminated cutaneous infection usually induced by herpesvirus type 1 or 2, vaccinia virus or Coxsackie A16 virus in a patient with an underlying dermatosis. Risk factors for KVE reported in the literature include erythroderma, systemic sepsis, therapy with immunosuppressants such as methotrexate and systemic steroids, and therapy with systemic retinoids. The occurrence of KVE in psoriasis is rare and it predominantly appears in patients affected by erythrodermic psoriasis during immunosuppressive treatment. We report our experience of a remarkable case of a patient affected by severe erythrodermic psoriasis and KVE that healed after antiviral treatment and after having received secukinumab. After 1 year, psoriasis was cleared and no recurrence of KVE had occurred

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
