Bendamustine for the treatment of multiple myeloma in first-line and relapsed-refractory settings: a review of clinical trial data.
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy characterized by abnormal growth and/or dysregulation of plasma cells leading to the build-up of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow and increased production of monoclonal immunoglobulins. Treatment modalities for MM include autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT), chemotherapy with conventional and immunomodulatory agents, radiation therapy and adjunct therapies. Bendamustine is a synthetic chemotherapeutic agent combining the alkylating properties of a mustard group with the activities of a benzimidazole ring, giving it a unique alkylating activity compared with other alkylating agents. Bendamustine has proven activity in both newly diagnosed and relapsed-refractory MM. Bendamustine has also demonstrated activity in MM after relapse from ASCT, and has recently been used successfully as a conditioning regimen for ASCT in combination with melphalan. Bendamustine is generally well tolerated, with the majority of adverse events being due to bone marrow suppression. Extramedullary toxicity is infrequent and usually mil

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
