    ABSTRACT THE RELATIONSHIP OF BACTERICIDAL PERMEABILITY INCREASING PROTEIN, CLUSTER OF DIFFERENTIATION 14, INTERLEUKIN 1 BETA, DAN MATRIX METALLOPROTEINASE-16 GENE POLYMORPHISM WITH NEONATAL SEPSIS Mustarim Neonatal sepsis is a health problem because it causes serious morbidity and mortality in the neonatal care unit. The susceptibility of neonates results from immaturity of immune system development as well of maternal and enviromental risk factors which can cause infection. The aim of this study is to find out the relationship of BPI gene polymorphism rs 4358188, CD14 rs2569190, IL1β rs1143643 and MMP16 rs2669349 with the incidence of neonatal sepsis. This was an observational studies with cross sectional study design with genomic DNA samples of infants with sepsis and non sepsis which stored according to the standard storage of genetic materials in the Biomedical Laboratory of FK UNAND. This research materials is part of the previous research by Dr. dr. Prambudi. Continued with PCR examination, sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. Only IL1β gene polymorphism rs1143643 C>T was associated with the incidence of neonatal sepsis (p = 0.017) and was statistically significant. While no significant relationship was found between BPI gene polymorphism rs4358188 G>T, CD14 rs2569190 A>G and MMP16 rs2664349 G>A with neonatal sepsis (p = 1,000; 0,472; 1,000). It can be conclude that isIL1β gene polymorphism rs1143643 C>T associated with the incidence of neonatal sepsis, and this result can be used as a biomarker of a population which allowed early diagnostic and spesific management plans of accurate predictions for patient’s prognosis.

    MUSTARIM SILUBA. 1987.Species abundance Corbicula possoensis and Melanoides granifera Mollusca) in Poso Lake, Central Sulawesi.Berita Bioiogi 3(7): 317 - 320. Corbicula possoensis and Meianoideu granifera are the two dominant species among 18 species of the mollusca that occured in poso Lake.The highly abundance of these two species distributed among three habitat types, i.e. sandy. mudsand, and gTavelly habitat. The study showed that the abundance of C. possoensis is 126,66/m2 in "sandy habitat, 118,66/m2 in mudsand habitat, and 51,00/m2 in gravelly habitat respectively. The abundance of M. granifera was lower then C. possoensis, i.e. 53,00/m2 in sandy habitat, 91.00/m2 in mudsand habitat, and 51,33/m2 in gravelly habitat. It is suggested that the references is done to their preference and their feeding technique

    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

    No full text
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
