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
Il sistema penitenziario italiano dopo la condanna CEDU. L’opinione dei detenuti.
No full textIl contributo si focalizza sulle misure che l'Italia ha adottato a seguito della condanna da parte della Convenzione Europea dei Diritti dell'Uomo (2013) per trattamento inumano all'interno degli istituti di pena del Paese. La riflessione iniziale sul caso italiano è supportata dall'esito di un'indagine esplorativa che testimonia i problemi e le aspettative che esistono in un carcere di Palermo (Sicilia)
Introduzione; Progettare architettura, dialogare con gli spazi
No full textAll'interno del catalogo che pubblica gli esiti di alcune tesi di laurea svolte in Architettura e Composizione Architettonica presso la Facoltà d'Ingegneria dell'Università degli Studi dell'Aquila, l'autore che è anche co-curatore del volume, sviluppa alcuni concetti fondamentali posti alla base del proprio lavoro didattico per collegarli agli esiti della ricerca scientifica condotta sui temi teorici della progettazione nella fase delle trasformazioni contemporanee dello spazio urbano e paesaggistico.

Dialysate calcium concentration during calcimimetic treatment: a neglected issue
No full textHypocalcaemia is a well-known effect of the treatment of
secondary hyperparathyroidism when using calcimimetics.
In a retrospective, observational, study, which was published
recently in this Journal [1], Louie et al. investigated
the frequency, predictors, and consequences of cinacalcetinduced
hypocalcaemia in a cohort of over one thousand
haemodialysis patients. They found that hypocalcaemia
occurred in more than two third of the treated patients
and was mild in many cases. Nonetheless, in one third it
was moderate (1.87– < 2.0 mmol/L; 23%) or even severe
(< 1.87 mmol/L; 9%). These results coming from a “realworld”
setting raise questions on the true potentially negative
impact of hypocalcaemia per se or of its treatment,
including the increase of dialysate calcium concentration
