    Solo considerando le condizioni cliniche correlate ad un eventuale intervento chirurgico subito, le conseguenze relative a un trattamento radiochemioterapico, le possibili complicanze nutrizionali e respiratorie che ne conseguono, la capacità di gestione dell'apporto alimentare nelle sue possibili varie forme, la gestio ne di una cannula tracheale, di un sondino nasogastrico o di una PEG possono permettere di comprendere al meglio anche il quadro disfagico che può insorgere nel paziente con un tumore del distretto testa - collo

    Da molti anni la letteratura nazionale e internazionale sottolinea l'importanza di una accurata valutazione della disfagia in pazienti affetti da patologie neurologiche ad insorgenza acuta. Le linee guida sul paziente disfagico adulto in Foniatria e Logopedia pubblicate nel Consensus Conference di Torino 2007 sottolineano come,nel paziente disfagico post ictus, sia fondamentale valutare il prima possibile le capacità deglutitorie per escludere eventuali fenomeni di inalazione,capacità che andranno ttestate però dopo aver valutato il livello di coscienza e di controllo posturale

    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
