Medicina Legale
Sull’argomento si è cercato di dare voce al Codice Deontologico, sollecitando una maggiore attenzione ai problemi dell’informazione e del consenso delle persone assistite, ai maltrattamenti delle donne, dei minori, degli anziani e degli inabili, alla certificazione relativa alla tutela sociale degli invalidi. La disciplina Medicina Legale è evoluta di pari passo con l’evoluzione culturale e tecnica della materia Medica. Si è cercato di adeguare a questa evoluzione anche il testo, tenendo il passo con la necessità di conservare un livello di informazione che sia consono alla formazione professionale sia degli studenti della Scuola di Medicina e Chirurgia che di quelli della Scuola di Giurisprudenza. Un testo dunque che vuole essere un invito perché nella preparazione professionale si torni a: cultura, ricerca, ascolto e dialogo
Sindrome delle apnee ostruttive del sonno e rischio di incidenti stradali: doveri del medico e possibili responsabilità del paziente
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) is the most common sleep disorder associated with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), and it is estimated to affect 1,600,000 people in Italy. Untreated OSAS is significantly associated with an increased risk of driving accidents. This article reviews the main professional duties of physicians dealing with patients with OSAS, and the patient’s potential liability in case of sleep-related road accidents. Physician’s duties were divided into the following: 1. duties related to certification according to the law 120/2010 and the Decree 22 December 2015; and 2. duties related to patient education about the risks related to EDS and about his/her potential liability in case of driving accidents. The latter issue was reviewed in light of several Italian Supreme Court decisions about the criminal and civil liability in case of motor vehicle crashes due to sudden “sleep attack”. Finally, since in Italy there is not a specific law requiring physicians to report the drivers affected by OSAS associated with EDS, circumstances in which physicians may (or have to) inform driving licence authorities are discussed. Indiscriminate reporting of patients is not recommended, but it should be limited to selected and actually dangerous patients

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
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
