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

[Breast Milk Nutrient Composition, Immunology and COVID-19] Komposisi Nutrien Susu Ibu, Imunologi dan COVID-19
Get PDFBreast milk is the best food that a mother can give to a newborn baby up to the first six months of age. The purpose of this writing is to provide information on the nutrient content found in breast milk, the antibodies involved in helping reduce the infection of COVID-19 and how to breastfeed. The composition of breast milk will change according to the nutrient needs of the baby at every moment. The enzyme content in breast milk will help digestion and the nutrient content can prevent the baby from getting infections that cannot be replaced by formula milk. Antibodies or immunoglobulins are proteins produced by cells in the body's immune system to fight allergens, bacteria, and viruses that cause disease. The body has different types of antibodies such as IgA, IgG, IgM, and IgE. Newborns have immunoglobulins from the placenta. This immunoglobulin will quickly decrease immediately after the baby is born, while the newborn baby's body is not yet able to form the immunoglobulin. This condition will decrease when the baby gets breast milk. This is because breast milk contains a high level of secretory immunoglobulin A antibodies (sIgA) that will protect babies from various bacterial, viral, parasitic and fungal infections. Antibodies help the body's immune system recognize and destroy pathogens such as COVID-19. All mothers who recover from COVID-19 have antibodies to COVID-19 in their milk. These antibodies are very good at fighting diseases that attack the lining of the lungs such as COVID-19. Women with COVID-19 can breastfeed and the virus cannot be detected in breast milk. Safe breastfeeding involves following good respiratory hygiene, skin-to-skin contact for newborns, sharing a room with their baby, washing hands before and after touching the baby, and keeping all surfaces clean.
Susu ibu merupakan makanan terbaik yang dapat diberikan ibu kepada bayi yang baru lahir sehingga usia enam bulan pertama. Tujuan penulisan ini memberikan informasi mengenai kandungan nutrien yang terdapat dalam susu ibu, antibodi yang terlibat membantu menurunkan jangkitan COVID-19 dan cara penyusuannya. Komposisi susu ibu akan berubah sesuai dengan keperluan nutrien bayi pada setiap saat. Kandungan enzim dalam susu ibu akan membantu pencernaan dan kandungan nutrien pula mampu mencegah bayi mendapat infeksi yang sememangnya tidak boleh diganti oleh susu formula. Antibodi atau immunoglobulin adalah protein yang dihasilkan oleh sel dalam sistem imuniti tubuh untuk melawan alergen, bakteria, serta virus penyebab penyakit. Tubuh memiliki pelbagai jenis antibodi seperti IgA, IgG, IgM, dan IgE. Bayi yang baru dilahirkan mempunyai immunoglobulin daripada plasenta. Immunoglobulin ini akan cepat menurun segera setelah bayi dilahirkan, sedangkan tubuh bayi yang baru lahir belum mampu membentuk immunoglobulin tersebut. Keadaan ini akan berkurangan apabila bayi mendapatkan susu ibu. Hal ini kerana susu ibu mengandungi kadar antibodi immunoglobulin A rembesan (sIgA) yang tinggi yang akan melindungi bayi daripada pelbagai penyakit infeksi bakteria, virus, parasit dan kulat. Antibodi membantu sistem imuniti tubuh mengenali dan menghancurkan patogen seperti COVID-19. Semua ibu yang pulih daripada COVID-19 memiliki antibodi untuk COVID-19 dalam susu mereka. Antibodi ini sangat baik dalam melawan penyakit yang menyerang lapisan paru-paru seperti COVID-19. Wanita yang menghidap COVID-19 boleh menyusukan bayi dan virus ini tidak dapat dikesan pada susu ibu. Penyusuan yang selamat harus mengikuti kebersihan pernafasan dengan baik, melakukan kontak kulit ke kulit untuk bayi yang baru lahir, berkongsi bilik dengan bayi mereka, mencuci tangan sebelum dan selepas menyentuh bayi, dan menjaga semua permukaan agar bersih
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
