Cuidados paliativos, cuidados de fin de vida y COVID-19: revisión de alcance
No full textIntroduction:COVID-19 exacerbated the deficit of palliative and end-of-life care provision and increased healthcare services’ burden, but the extent of the literature on that topic is unknown. Objetive: To describe the evidence of palliative and end-of-life care provision in adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and Methods:The scoping review was performed according to Arksey and O’Malley’s methodological framework. The search was conducted in English and Spanish, in PubMed, SciELO, the Virtual Health Library, and the Coronavirus research database. The articles were filtered by title, abstract, and full text. The results were summarized according to the charting technique. Results: Fifty-one publications were included. A total of five categories emerged: 1) Palliative care characteristics, 2) advanced care planning, 3) support for family members and loved ones, 4) telehealth, and 5) nursing role in palliative care. Discussion:The social cost of the pandemic is reflected in the increased burden of palliative care units, higher mortality rates, and the decreased average age of death. Future studies should address the psychosocial impact of COVID-19 on patients’ loved ones, as well as the impact at the community level. Conclusions: Palliative and end-of-life care is an essential tool for COVID-19 patients care. The pandemic has enhanced the development of information and communication technologies to deliver palliative care.

Nursing Interventions for Symptom Management in People with Cancer: A Scoping Review
No full textObjetivo: describir las intervenciones de enfermería para el manejo de los síntomas en adultos con cáncer en tratamiento de intención curativa. Métodos: revisión de alcance; con el uso de descriptores en ciencias de la salud, se adelantó una búsqueda en las bases de datos Cochrane, PubMed y Biblioteca Virtual en Salud (BVS) en idiomas inglés y español en el periodo 2013-2020. Resultados: tras el proceso de búsqueda, análisis y evaluación crítica de la literatura, diecisiete publicaciones (n = 17) conformaron la muestra. Las piezas investigativas del estudio fueron agrupadas en cuatro categorías: intervenciones con el uso de tecnologías de la información y la comunicación, intervenciones personalizadas y adaptadas al individuo, medicina complementaria e intervenciones realizadas en el momento del tratamiento. Conclusión: las intervenciones de enfermería constituyen una importante herramienta para el adecuado manejo de síntomas. Existen varios tipos de intervención y diferentes mecanismos para su ejecución que facilitan el manejo de diversos síntomas, disminuyen la carga general del síntoma y fomentan el automanejo de estosObjective: To describe nursing interventions for symptom management in adults with cancer receiving curative treatment. Method: Scoping review. Using Health Sciences Descriptors, a search in the Cochrane, PubMed, and Virtual Health Library (VHL) databases, in English and Spanish, was carried out in the period 2013-2020. Results: After the processes of search, analysis, and critical evaluation of the literature, seventeen publications (n = 17) made up the sample. The study’s research pieces were grouped into four categories: interventions that use information and communication technologies, personalized interventions adapted to the individual, complementary medicine, and interventions carried out at the time of treatment. Conclusion: Nursing interventions are an important tool for proper symptom management. There are several types of intervention and different mechanisms for implementing them that facilitate the management of various symptoms, decrease the overall symptom burden and foster symptom self-managemen
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
