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
Advantages and implications of high dose rate (HDR) total skin electron irradiation (TSEI) for the management of Mycosis Fungoides. Indian experience
No full textAbstractBackgroundMycosis Fungoides (MF) is an indolent lymphoproliferative disorder affecting dermis caused by abnormal proliferation of CD4+ T-cells. Radiation therapy is the most effective modality of treatment for MF which offers cure in limited stage disease and desirable palliation in advance stage disease. Treating entire skin having many curved surfaces and folds with radiation is the real challenge for the radiation oncologist. Many techniques, dose schedules and modifications in total skin electron irradiation (TSEI) have been tried since 1950s. TSEI treatment is a very time consuming, inconvenient and physically challenging to both patient as well as oncologist.AimAt our center TSEI was performed since 1983 with conventional linear accelerator where the treatment time was prolonged beyond two hours, which was very difficult or the patient, oncologist, technical officer and eating away the machine time hampering the treatment of other patients. From 1998 we shifted to high dose rate (HDR) mode, in order to bring down the treatment time of a single patient every day from two and half hour to 15min. The reduction of treatment time increases patient compliance and at the same time saved machine time.Materials and methodsBetween 1998 and 2003, eleven pathological diagnosed MF patients were treated using HDR TSEI. All the patients were male between 40 and 70 years of age, who had the history of having the disease for 7–22 months. Four patients had T2 and seven patients had T3 stage disease with more than 90% skin surface involvement. TSEI was performed with 4MeV electrons with a daily fraction size of 120cGy to a total dose of 36Gy. At the end of 36Gy, boost dose of 10Gy was delivered to self shielding regions like sole, scalp and perineum. Considering the treatment related toxicities and consequent treatment interruptions, in the first seven patients, the last four patients were treated using similar HDR TSEI technique with modified treatment schedule, where the treatment was given on an alternate day basis following 2nd week of initiation of treatment.ResultsThe patients were followed over a period of 144 months with a median of 72 months. Nine patients are alive without any evidence of disease, one patient relapsed and one died due to progression of disease. The most common radiation related morbidities are erythema, skin blisters, various degree of desquamations, swelling of joints (specially small joints) etc. which are controlled by treatment interruptions and conservative measures. By modifying the treatment schedule, the incidence of toxicity as well as treatment interruptions were brought down.ConclusionsWe can conclude that HDR-TSEI is an excellent and safe therapeutic modality for the patients with MF both curative as well as palliative without any added toxicity profile, provided patient positioning is done properly
Unleashing the Potential of the Internet of Things in Transforming Libraries into Intelligent Hubs of Digital Knowledge
Get PDFInternet of Things (IoT) is a rapidly evolving technology that has the potential to transform the way libraries operate and provide services to their patrons. By connecting devices and systems to the internet, libraries can gain access to real-time data and automate many of their processes, leading to more efficient and effective operations. This paper explores the use of IoT in libraries, specifically focusing on how it can enable smart libraries in the digital era. The paper will discuss the benefits and challenges of implementing IoT in libraries and provide examples of how libraries are currently using IoT to improve their services. The paper will also explore the future possibilities of IoT in libraries and how it can be used to enhance the user experience and support the development of new services. Overall, this paper will provide an overview of the IoT technology and its potential to revolutionize the way libraries operate and provide services to their patrons in the digital era
Electronic Resource Sharing of Libraries: A Footprint Toward Green-E Future
Get PDFThis paper discusses different benefits of electronic resource sharing and described it as a sector, i.e., space, energy, cost, time, organization, and reliability. The authors also have visualized the concept of "Green-E" in the field of libraries and information centers. Through the analysis of electronic resources as a renewable source of energy for libraries, the idea has been explained and supported by showing how electronic resources play an important role as greener energy and help save the earth from global warming and climate change. The future of e-libraries and green libraries may be called the "Green-E Library," and its electronic resources mark the footprint for a green future
