A study for evaluating the effect of the deltoid-flap repair in massive rotator cuff defects
The repair of massive cuff defects by direct suture often is impossible. In these cases, a repair by musculo-tendineous flaps (latissimus-dorsi, pectoralis or deltoideus) is required. It was the goal of this study to evaluate the result of delta-flap repair in case of massive cuff defects with a diameter of 5 cm or more. Between 1998 and 2000 for all patients who were suffering from a massive rotator cuff tear more than 5 cm a deltoid transfer was performed. A total of 20 patients (14 male, 6 female; age: 60.9 +/- 8.7 years) were available for a follow-up after 47.2 +/- 8.0 (range, 36 to 60) month. The operation included an arthroscopic evaluation, acromioplasty with resection of the lateral clavicular end, and biceps tenodesis. The cuff defect was repaired by transfer a muscular flap from the anterior part of the deltoid (about 2x6 cm) into the defect. The patients subjectively rated their result-10 excellent, 9 good, and 1 poor. Preoperatively, the Constant amounted 26.3 +/- 5.1 points. At follow-up, the score significantly increased to 74.5 +/- 8.5 points. The acromiohumeral distance increased from 4.9 +/- 1.1 to 9.2 +/- 1.7 mm. In MRI examination of 11 patients all had an intact flap. Two complications (a wound hematoma and a deep infection) did not influence the result. The repair of massive rotator cuff tears by a deltoid transfer produces acceptable clinical and radiological results

Arthroscopic electrothermal shrinkage of chronic posterolateral elbow instability - Good or moderate outcome in 21 patients followed for an average of 2.5 years
Background The lateral collateral ligament complex is the key structure involved in recurrent elbow instability. Treatment is surgical, by repair or reconstruction of the lateral collateral ligament complex. We evaluated the effect of arthroscopic electrothermal shrinkage for treatment of chronic posterolateral rotator elbow instability. Methods 21 patients, median age 32 (24-50) years, suffering from chronic lateral elbow instability underwent arthroscopic electrothermal ligament shrinkage with a bipolar shrinkage probe. All patients were available for follow-up after median 30 (848) months. Results No complications were seen. The Morrey score increased from 40 to 77 points. The result was moderate (50-80 points) in 10 patients, and in the other patients a good result was achieved (80-95 points). The manual stress radiography showed a mean lateral joint opening of 13 (8-18) mm preoperatively. During follow-up, it decreased to 2 (14) mm. Interpretation Our findings suggest that arthroscopic bipolar ligament shrinkage is sufficient for the treatment of chronic posterolateral rotator elbow instability
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
Variations on the Author
“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
We 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
We 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
