Mronj incidence after multiple teeth extractions in patients taking oral bisphosphonates without “drug holiday”: A retrospective chart review(Review)
No full textIntroduction. The present retrospective chart review registered Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (MRONJ) occurrence after multiple adjacent teeth extractions in patients taking oral bisphosphonates (BPs) for osteoporosis for at least 3 years without “drug holiday”. Methods. Data from subjects ≥ 50 years old, requiring ≥ 2 tooth extractions of adjacent teeth, treated with oral BPs for osteoporosis for at least 3 years, who underwent multiple adjacent teeth extractions with a 12 months follow-up, at the Complex Operating Unit of Odontostomatology, Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria San Giovanni di Dio e Ruggi d’Aragona, Salerno, Italy, were included in the study. Tooth extractions were planned in case of residual roots, destroying tooth decays, dental fractures and severe endodontic and periodontal infections. No oral BPs suspension was considered. Surgeries were performed by a single expert operator as a part of the standard clinical procedure. Follow-up consisted of weekly controls for the first month after extractions and monthly recalls for the next 11 months. Results. Data from 58 patients charts accounting for 123 teeth extractions were included in the survey. No MRONJ development was registered. Discussion and conclusions. Besides the positive observation, higher evidence level studies should be conducted on wider samples to better estimate MRONJ risk in osteoporotic patients assuming oral BPs without drug holiday and undergoing teeth extractions. © 2019, CIC Edizioni Internazionali s.r.l..

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
