Le cisti dei mascellari: manuale-atlante.
No full textLa novità di questo manuale atlante consiste nel presentare la diagnosi ed il trattamento delle cisti dei mascellari da un punto di vista essenzialmente pratico. Il libro è stato progettato per fornire una guida di rapida consultazione all’odontoiatra e al chirurgo orale che desidera affrontare questo tipo di patologia. Ogni argomento è infatti trattato a partire da una situazione clinica concreta, come la presenza di una tumefazione o di una radiotrasparenza. Per ciascuna situazione vengono suggerite le regole di comportamento che portano a una diagnosi clinica corretta. I diversi interventi chirurgici, sono descritti nei dettagli attraverso fotografie cliniche e disegni. Una sezione a parte è dedicata interamente al trattamento e alla prevenzione delle complicanze più frequenti. Il testo e le illustrazioni sono ordinati secondo lo schema abituale di lavoro clinico e sono divisi in quattro sezioni: la diagnosi, le tecniche chirurgiche, le forme cliniche e le complicanze

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
Structural Fat Grafting
No full textThe authors overview the application of structural fat grafting (SFG) in the management of volumetric deficit in the maxillofacial area. Structural fat grafting was introduced as a way to improve facial aesthetics and in recent years has evolved into applications in craniomaxillofacial reconstructive surgery.A retrospective cohort study population was composed of patients grafted with autologous fat referred to our department from February 2005 to July 2009. Each patient was operated on with SFG technique according to Coleman. Subjects were screened to these possessing an atrophy of facial soft tissues after trauma, tumor resection, congenital deformities and clefts, Parry-Romberg and scleroderma, orbital and periorbital surgery, facial palsy, burns, and scars.Forty-seven patients (27 females and 20 males) with a mean age of 38 years (minimum, 15 years; maximum, 71 years) were enrolled in the current study. The mean postoperative follow-up was 14 months. A total of 548 sites were grafted into 47 patients: malar, n = 103; nasolabial fold, n = 82; lip, n = 86; eyebrow, n = 32; jaw line, n = 18; philtrum, n = 19; forehead, n = 33; temple, n = 34; eyelid, n = 70; chin, n = 16; cheek, n = 25; nose, n = 23; and neck scar, n = 7. Each patient was operated on 1.6 times, and 11.6 was the average number of grafted sites.The authors have performed 548 procedures of SFG in 47 patients with good results as well as improvement in facial morphology, function, shape, and volume and improvement in the patients' appearance
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
