    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

    In patients with myocardial infarction without revascularization chronic heart failure is characterized by burdened course of disease manifesting in deterioration of clinical condition, decrease in exercise tolerance, significant changes in hemodynamics, intense manifestations of myocardial ischaemia, significant left ventricular remodeling compared to those individuals who underwent endovascular myocardial reperfusion by culprit coronary artery stenting. Percutaneous coronary intervention was found to promote significant increase in left ventricular ejection fraction, a significant decrease in end-systolic volume, myocardial mass and left ventricle myocardial performance index compared to patients without revascularization.Reperfusion therapy improves the course of post-infarction period and therefore should be a priority treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction.

    In patients with postinfarction cardiosclerosis chronic heart failure occurs and progresses in the presence of cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension (HT), diabetes mellitus (DM), dyslipidemia, smoking, obesity, sedentary lifestyle. According to clinical anamnesis and ECG data of post-myocardial infarction patients the course and prognosis of the disease was more favourable in patients who underwent endovascular reperfusion therapy using coronary stenting. Conducting percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) contributed to significant increase in left ventricular ejection fraction, lower end-systolic volume and myocardial mass and reduced LV myocardial performance index compared to patients who didn’t undergo revascularization. Reperfusion therapy improved course of postinfarction cardiosclerosis and therefore it should be a priority treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction.

Importance of constant cooperation between practical training supervisors and students is showed. During thir cooperation primary skills level is evaluated, task for their consolidation and development is put. In the end there is final control of performance level having a significant role for next stage, namely the integration of knowledge and skills, individual profound patients’ examination and treatment, and direct preparation for State Final Certification. Students have practical training during the semester, which is significant as theu work with the department staff more closely in such case.

    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

    Full text link
    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
