Trois lettres inédites de Crébillon fils à Mme de Graffigny
No full textThree unpublished letters from Crébillon fils to Madame de Graffigny, presented by Vera L. Grayson.
Madame de Graffigny met Crébillon fils at the salon of Mlle Quinault in December 1741. In March 1744, she invited him to a dinner at her house ; his letter of acceptance is published here. Attempting to invite him again over the course of the next few weeks, she was annoyed by his constant refusals. Two of his letters of refusal are published in this article. The two continued to see each other at Mlle Quinault' s, and by January 1745 Crébillon was a regular guest at the house of Madame de Graffigny. But by March 1745, the Quinault salon was abandoned and they made no more attempts to see each other, Graffigny complaining of Crébillon' s laziness.L. Grayson Vera.

Grayson Ligament: A Revised Description of its Anatomy and Function
No full textPURPOSE: Grayson ligament has been described as a common pathway for digital contracture in Dupuytren disease. Its anatomical descriptions in the literature are, however, inconsistent. METHODS: We have performed a microsurgical dissection study in 20 fresh-frozen and thawed digits to revisit the anatomy of Grayson ligaments. We also performed dissections in Thiel-preserved hands to be able to study the changes in tension of the ligaments during flexion and extension of the finger. RESULTS: We found the ligaments originally described by Grayson to be the best developed part of a trabecular network of fibers, originating in continuity with the outer adventitial layer of the flexor tendon sheath and running toward their insertions into the skin in multiple planes, all volar to the neurovascular bundle. The most dorsal fibers, which cover the neurovascular bundles, form a chevron shape with its midline apex pointing distally in an extended finger. During flexion, the fibers become more transversely oriented. CONCLUSIONS: We found Grayson ligament comprises a trabecular network of fibers, instead of a ligament, with a dynamic fiber orientation on the volar side of the finger. The main function of this network of fibers seems to be the stabilization of the skin and fat pad in digit extension while the relaxation in flexion allows the skin and volar fat pad to adapt optimally to the form of the object that is held. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The new insights in the anatomy of Grayson trabecular network of fibers may be of importance in the understanding of the pathological anatomy of Dupuytren disease
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
