    [Instrumental diagnosis in shoulder instability]

    No full text
    The authors call attention to the pathology caused by glenohumeral instability and, in particular, to painful shoulders in athletes which so often cause problems in diagnosis. An instrumental protocol for diagnosis is suggested, based on several specific radiographic views, Ct scan and arthro-Ct scan, with double contrast medium, the latter having the task of determining lesion which would not otherwise be able to be studied

    [A modified Putti-Platt surgical method in the treatment of habitual luxation of the anterior shoulder: our experience]

    No full text
    Fifty cases of recurrent dislocation of the shoulder operated according to the Putti-Platt method modified by lateralization of the insertion of the coracoid processes are reported. Excellent results were obtained in 86% of the cases. There was neither incidence of recurrence, nor degenerative joint alteration. Mild limitation in extrarotation (less than 10 degrees) was observed in 7 cases

    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
