Aldosterone blockade in post-acute myocardial infarction heart failure
No full textSummary: Developmem ofheart failure (HF) or left ventri cular
systolic dysfunction (LVSD) significantlyincreases mortality
post acute myocardial infarction (A.MI). Aldosterone
contributes to the development and progression of HF post
AMI, and major guidelines now recommend aldosterone
blockade in this setting. However, lack of practical experience
with aldosterone blockade may make cìinicians hesitant to
use these therapies. This review is based on a consensus cardiology
conference that occurred in May 2005 (New York
City) concerning these topics. Potenti al barriers to the use of
aldosterone blockade are discussed and an algorithm for appropriate
in-hospital pharmacologic management of AMI
with LVSD and/or HP is presented

The ESC 2019 CCS guidelines: Have we left our patients and scientific evidence behind?
No full textThe ESC CCS 2019 guidelines recognize that successful management of anginal symptoms relies on effective therapy tailored to individual patient characteristics but do not provide any specific advice or clarity on how to utilize pharmacotherapy in order to achieve these goals. In this review, we are going to summarize and discuss the main points of disagreement
Optimal timing of initiation of oral P2Y12-receptor antagonist therapy in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes. Lessons learnt from the ACCOAST-trial
No full textThe optimal time-point of the initiation of P2Y12 antagonist therapy in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes (NTSE-ACS) is still a matter of debate. European guidelines recommend P2Y12 as soon as possible after first medical contact. However, the only trial which compared the two strategies did not demonstrate any benefit of pre-treatment with prasugrel before angiography compared to starting therapy after angiography and just prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This paper summarizes the results of pharmacodynamic and previous studies, and gives recommendations for the initiation of P2Y12 antagonist therapy in NSTE-ACS in different clinical situations

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

No full textVariations 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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
