No full textThe lower calix is responsible for a significant incidence of kidneys with residual stone fragments. In addition to those with an anatomic caliceal disposition, stones located in damaged and dilated calices should be treated percutaneously.7450350
Bilateral Carcinoma In Situ Of Testis In Infertile Man
No full textAbnormal seminiferous epithelium with atypical germ cells was studied in 2 previous cases. Embryonal carcinoma occurred within four and one-half years of testicular biopsy. Herein is reported another case of bilateral carcinoma in situ of the testis, presenting abnormal germinal morphology and infertility. The abnormal cells differed considerably from normal spermatogonia, presenting an increased diameter and dense chromatin masses. Apparently normal tubules were also present with normal spermatogenesis. Serum gonadotropins and chromosome study were normal. After bilateral biopsy patient was submitted to a right orchiectomy and left varicocelectomy. © 1985.256601604Dixon, Moore, Tumors of the male sex organs (1952) Atlas of Tumor Pathology, , Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Washington, D.C, sect 8, fasc 31 b and 32Witschi, Migration of the germ cells of human embryos from the yolk sac to the primitive gonadal folds (1948) Contribution to embryology, 32, pp. 67-80. , ed. 7, Carnegie Institution, Washington, 209Curtis, Staggers, Treatment of the undescended testis with special reference to pathological anatomy (1960) J Urol, 83, p. 693Gilbert, Hamilton, Studies in malignant testis tumors.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Bacillus Calmette-guerin Immunotherapy Of Infiltrating Bladder Cancer
No full textOral administration of bacillus Calmette-Guerin was used to treat 10 patients with muscle invasive transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. The treatment induced tumor regression in 7 patients (70%), including 1 who died without evidence of recurrent tumor. Skin test reactivity was correlated with response to treatment. Only 1 patient had marked skin test reactivity at the time of tumor recurrence. Our data demonstrated that patients with invasive bladder cancer may derive benefit from immunotherapy.132467567
