Full text linkThis interesting case report comes from an alumnus of Henry Ford Hospital - Dr. Carlos Petrozzi who was a medical resident here from July 1961 to 1964. The findings may be of interest to opththalmologists and others because of the rather specific changes in the bulbar conjunctiva which can be easily seen without special ophthalmic instruments
"Gender congruence and acceptance before and after cross-sex hormonal therapy" G. Senofonte, F. Cargnelutti, A. Petrozzi, S. Colangelo, F. Pallotti, D. Paoli, M. Mosconi, F. Lombardo
No full textIntroduction - Gender dysphoria (GD) is a non congruity between an individual’s assigned
gender and the perceived gender identity. This incongruence often produces significant
distress and/or social functioning problems.
Aim – To evaluate gender congruence in FtM and MtF patients using a validated psychometric
scale.
Materials and Methods - We recruited 62 patients (33 FtM and 29 MtF; mean age 27.3 ± 6.7
and 28 ± 6.2 years, respectively) who referred to the outpatient clinic of Endocrinology and
Andrology of the Department of Experimental Medicine for Gender Dysphoria, “Sapienza”
University of Rome, sent by the mental health specialists. Each patient underwent clinical
evaluation, blood hormone testing and completed the Transgender Congruence Scale (TGCS).
This questionnaire is composed of 12 items, exploring Transgender Congruence (TC),
Appearance Congruence (AC) and Gender Identity Acceptance (GIA) (score 1-5). The
evaluation was carried out before the beginning of cross-sex hormone therapy (T0) and after
6 months of therapy (T6).
Results – Baseline evaluation – We detected higher TC scores in FtM patients compared to
MtF (2.65 ± 0.62 vs 2.17 ± 0.73, respectively; p = 0.001), and comparable AC and GIA scores in
both groups (AC: 1.94 ± 0.88 vs 1.69 ± 0.85, p = 0.087; GIA: 4.02 ± 0.26 vs 3.96 ± 0.26, p =
0.409); blood testosterone and estradiol values were within normal cis-gender ranges for all
patients.
FtM post therapy evaluation – At T6 we detected a significant increase of both TC and AC
scores (TC: 2.65 ± 0.62 vs 3.61 ± 0.21, T0 vs T6 respectively, p = 0.001; AC: 1.94 ± 0.88 vs 3.30
± 0.16, T0 vs T6 respectively, p = 0.001). Hormone testing revealed a significant increase of
testosterone levels within eugonadal male range (1.35 ± 0.83 vs 13.36 ± 4.52, T0 vs T6
respectively, p = 0.001).
MtF post therapy evaluation – Similarly, we detected a significant increase of both TC and AC
scores at T6 (TC: 2.17 ± 0.73 vs 3.27 ± 0.57, T0 vs T6, p = 0.005; AC: 1.69 ± 0.85 vs 3.06 ± 0.79,
T0 vs T6, p = 0.011). Blood hormone analysis revealed a significant decrease of testosterone
levels (19.39 ± 10.76 vs 2.70 ± 4.51, T0 vs T6, p = 0.004) without variation of estradiol levels
(24.52 ± 7.61 vs 31.23 ± 14.01, T0 vs T6, p = 0.424). It is noteworthy that TC scores at T6 in
MtF were significantly lower than in FtM (p = 0.048).
Correlations - No significant correlations were detected between sex hormones levels and
TGCS scores in both groups.
Conclusions – Both FtM and MtF individuals show high acceptance of their new gender
identity even before treatment due to their rejection of their birth-assigned gender. Six
months of cross-sex hormone therapy determined an outstanding improvement of selfreported
congruence and appearance scores in both groups, although to a milder extent on
MtF. This reflects the fact that androgen therapy induces marked physical changes in FtM
(menses cessation, hair growth, etc.) and with shorter latency than anti-androgens and
estradiol in MtF. Longer follow-up is required to determine long term maintenance of physical
and psychological effects of therapy
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
An Integrated System for the Energy Production and Accumulation from Renewable Sources: A Rural Tower Prototype
No full textAbstractThe recent growth of renewable sources has led to relevant effects in terms of land consuming, social acceptance, distributed energy generation, non continuous production caused by non-programmable sources such as wind and solar one also characterized by low energy density per surface unit. These issues will be addressed in the next future through the concept of energy smart grid, provided by ICT (Information and Communication Technology). The aims of this paper is to show the preliminary results of the research activities carried out by several operative unities of the Universities of Perugia and Cusano, within a national research project, where one possible solution for renewable energy integration to solve the criticisms in renewable sources application is proposed modeled. The model prototype for energy production could be good applied in existing ancient building with vertical extension such as the dove towers typical of rural areas in central Italy. The preliminary design of the prototype is applied to a chosen case study in Perugia: it consists in an integrated system in which the tower is converted to an energy system for renewable energy production, storage and supply, based on photovoltaic, hydropower and geothermal heat pump with boreholes integrated to micropiles. Energy managing is leaded by an intelligent system, by combining meteorological forecasting to predict energy productions by renewables with the energy demand needs. In particular, the concept of this project is mainly effective because in the rural areas there are many little building centers that are abandoned because they are without any connection to the electricity grid and methane piping: the possibility to create an autonomous energy system is the basis for energy supply
