No full textThis study evaluated the use of an aliamide-containing gel in the treatment of skin wounds by employing noninvasive wound volume measurements acquired from wound images of high resolution ultrasonography (HRU). The dorsal thoracolumbar areas of 10 Beagle dogs were clipped and 2 rows of 6 full-thickness 5-mm punch biopsy samples were taken from either side of the midline under general anaesthesia. Wounds were allowed to heal by secondary intention, while treatment gel or base was applied 3 times daily to randomly selected treatment and control groups. Concentric 8-mm punch biopsy samples of the healing wounds were taken on Days 1, 2, 4, 8, and, 14 for histopathological assessment. Wounds were imaged with 20 MHz HRU daily over a period of 28 days. Wound volume was calculated using scanner software based on the disk summation method. The wound volume was calculated in longitudinal, and transverse ultrasound images and the average of the 2 values was used as the final wound volume. Repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to assess whether wound volume differed sighnificantly over time, and between control and treated animals. Mean wound volume decreased significantly during the 28-day experimental period, and there- was a significant time-treatment interaction idicating that the treatment effect varied at different, stages during the healing process. Oerall, application of the aliamide-containing gel appears to improve wound healing over time
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
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
