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
Chest wall reconstruction with a novel titanium mesh after partial sternectomy for chondrosarcoma
No full textPrimitive malignant sternal tumours are extremely rare and represent less than 1% of all chest wall tumours. A combination of radical surgery and accurate reconstruction is mandatory to ensure adequate stability and to reduce paradoxical movement. To date, this is one of the few reports on a successful sternal reconstruction using a rigid titanium mesh to restore the skeletal integrity, which was then covered by bilateral muscular flaps
