Towards a European consensus on gestational diabetes mellitus: A pragmatic guide for diagnosis, management, and care. The Italian Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group and FIGO. (Verso un consenso europeo sul diabete gestazionale: guida pragmatica a diagnosi, management e trattamento Gruppo di Studio Italiano Diabete e Gravidanza e FIGO)
No full textIn view of the rising global burden of diabetes and obesity the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) embarked on a new initiative in 2014 to raise awareness about the link between hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HIP) and poor maternal and fetal outcomes, and the risk to the future health of the mothers with HIP and their offspring. FIGO brought together a group of experts to frame the issues and develop a document suggesting key actions to address the public health burden posed by HIP. The FIGO Initiative on gestational diabetes mellitus: A pragmatic guide for diagnosis, management, and care was launched at the FIGO World Congress in October 2015 in Vancouver and published as a special supplement to the International Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics. The document provides pragmatic guidance for testing, management and care of women with GDM in relation to the resource settings and calls for a clearly defined global health agenda to tackle the issue on a world-wide scale

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
