“Mappe e sentieri”. Giovanni Ferraro: un itinerario possibile “attraverso” le discipline della pianificazione
No full textIl testo ripercorre le opere e il pensiero di Giovanni Ferraro, urbanista e studioso di urbanistica formatosi a Venezia presso lo IUAV e poi - fino alla sua dipartita - docente dell'Università di Roma Tre. Un percorso intellettuale di estremo interesse, soprattutto perché fornisce alla disciplina urbanistica una rilettura di testi classici reinterpretandoli alla luce delle nuove emergenze della città e della società, ma soprattutto perché prova ad introdurre nuovi approcci e nuove chiavi di letture su come intendere non solo la comprensione dei processi di trasformazione urbana in corso ma soprattutto per l'elaborazione di nuove politiche urbane capaci di affrontarle
Hepatocellular Carcinoma as a Paradigm for a Systemic Evolutionary Approach to Cancer
No full textThe systemic evolutionary theory of cancer pathogenesis posits that cancer is generated by the de-emergence of the eukaryotic cell system and by the reappearance of its ancestral subsystems, the archaea (genetic material and cytoplasm) and the prokaryote (mitochondria), which operate autonomously or uncoordinatedly. This unpaired coordination can be caused by changes in the eukaryote environment, mainly inflammation, damage to mitochondrial DNA or to mitochondrial membranes by viruses, chemicals, hydrogenated fatty acids in foods, and damage to nuclear DNA controlling mitochondria energy production or metabolic pathways including glycolysis. Here, we propose that an “energy package” is constantly required by the cell to maintain its differentiated status. When the energy flow works normally, the two subsystems, the archaea and the prokaryote, are perfectly integrated and there is no prevalence of one system on the other, so that cellular differentiation is maintained. However, as a consequence of a long-lasting injury (e.g. chronic inflammation), the energy at tissue level is restricted and this may cause, over time, the gradual decoupling of the two subsystems with the “prokaryote” subsystem that becomes predominant. The cirrhotic liver represents a paradigmatic scenario whereby this process may occur, due to altered vascular bed, fibrosis and reduction of the oxygen availability. The prevalence of the “prokaryote” subsystem may explain the metabolic alterations seen in liver cancer cells as well as the capacity for proliferation and invasion, especially toward areas of major oxygen availability (e.g. arterialization of portal vein in the liver). This approach highlights the notion that tissue integrity is essential for the proper flow and availability of energy for the maintenance of cellular homeostatic functions
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
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

No full textDispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
