Studies in the metabolism of cholecalciferol in the Japanese quail
No full textThe metabolism of cholecalciferol in the Japanese quail was studied using liver homogenates and the technique of thin layer chromatography for sterol analysis. 25 Hydroxycholecalciferol was the major metabolite ofcholecalciferol produced in liver homogenates prepared from laying birds. Very little 25 hydroxycholecalciferol was formed by the-livers of immature birds of either sex or by the livers of adult males. Instead a peak lesspolar than 25 hydroxycholecalciferol (peak X) was formed, Ltogether with a more polar (peak P) that remained at the origin. In these homogenates the radioactivity in the aqueous phase of the incubation mixture was also high and the cholecalciferol substrate was extensively metabolised. When cock birds or immature females were treated with oestrogen their livers produced mainly 25 hydroxycholecalciferol and a larger amount of cholecalciferol substrate was recovered unchanged at the end of the incubation.. The administration of oestrogen to cockbirds was thus found to protect 25 hydroxycholecalciferol from further metabolism in the liver to more polar products. Oestrogen treated quail were also found to have much greater Calcium Binding Protein activity in the duodenum than control animals.The oestrogen induced increase in cholecalciferol 25-hydroxylase activity was shown to be microsomal in origin. However, liver microsomes harvested from oestrogen treated birds would only support 25-hydroxylation in the presence of added cytoplasmic fraction. Without the cytoplasmic fraction, these microsomes rapidly degraded cholecalciferol and the production of peaks X and P occurred.The increase in hepatic cholecalciferol 25-hydroxylase activity and the protection of cholecalciferol and 25 hydroxycholecalciferol from further metabolism to more polar products observed after oestrogen treatment may be of fundamental importance to the high calcium turnover found in laying birds. A separate study revealed that both cholecalciferol and 25 hydroxycholecalciferol are accumulated by developing ovarian follicles.</p

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
