Hysteroscopy as an elective tool in abnormal uterine bleeding in perimenopausal women.
Abnormal Uterine Bleeding is a very frequent pathology particularly in perimenopausal age (> or = 45 years). The Authors report the experience of the 2nd Department of Ob/Gyn. of Rome University "La Sapienza" from January 1985 up to September 1991. The hysteroscopic evaluation of 789 patients in perimenopausal age is reviewed. The Authors analyze in detail the main cause of metrorrhagia describing the hysteroscopic aspect and relative incidence. Finally, some considerations concerning the great usefulness that a simple and accurate diagnostic investigation such as hysteroscopy represents in a routine diagnostic procedure, are reported
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

[Hysteroscopy in septate uterus. Diagnostic and therapeutic features].
Personal experience of diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy of septate uterus is reported. The diagnosis of septate uterus is an integrated diagnosis that makes use of hysterosalpingography, echography, hysteroscopy and laparoscopy. Of 545 hysteroscopies carried out between January and December 1993, 29 evidenced uterine septum, complete in 6 cases, incomplete in the remaining 23. Of the 29 patients, 7 underwent resection of the septum by the hysteroscopic route. No intra or postoperative complications worthy of note were observed. At follow-up after one month, the uterine cavity in 5 patients proved completely regular while in the remaining 2 one case of fundic fibrous synechia and one of small persistent fibrous bridge, of little importance within the context of the cavity, were observed. The purpose of the present paper is to demonstrate the twofold role of hysteroscopy with regard to the septate uterus; is that hysteroscopy is a diagnostic and a precise operative technique that is atraumatic, fast and of low cost
