Low-Intensity Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy for Erectile Dysfunction in Diabetic Patients
No full textIntroduction: The cause of erectile dysfunction (ED) in diabetic patients is complex and involves both neurogenic and vasculogenic components and is often hard to treat. Aim: To study the effect of low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (Li-ESWT) therapy on a subgroup of diabetic patients with ED who are responders (PDE5I-R) and non-responders (PDE5I-NR) to phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors (PDE5I). Methods: Analysis of pooled data from 5 double-blind, sham-controlled trials was performed. In this sub-analysis, of 350 patients in the PDE5I-R group and with vasculogenic ED, we found 61 patients with diabetes mellitus who underwent LI-ESWT. Another 48 patients (of 53) belonged to the PDE5I-NR group. Baseline efficacy was evaluated with the International Index of Erectile Function–Erectile Function domain questionnaire (IIEF-EF) for the PDE5I-R and with Erection Hardness Score, IIEF-EF, and flow-mediated dilation technique for the PDE5I-NR. Main Outcome Measures: Change in the IIEF-EF score after treatment of diabetes-induced ED with Li-ESWT in the PDE5i-R group vs the PDE5i-NR group. Results: LI-ESWT therapy was found to be effective in both subgroups of diabetic patients. Minimally clinical important difference in IIEF-EF score was achieved in 50%, 79.5%, 77.3%, and 65.9% of the subjects in the active group in after the sixth shockwave (SW) treatment evaluation (just before initiating the seventh SW session) and at 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months after the last SW treatment, respectively. The difference among the groups was significant (P < .05) after the sixth treatment and in all the follow-up periods. In the PDE5I-NR group, 55% of the active group were converted to PDE5I-5-R after LI-ESWT. The difference between the active and sham groups was statistically significant in all the tested measures (P < .001). Conclusion: LI-ESWT is safe and effective for the treatment of ED in PDE5I-R and PDE5I-NR groups. Spivak L, Shultz T, Appel B, et al.

Reframing Agribusiness: Moving from Farm to Market Centric
No full textAgribusiness is moving from farm to market centric, where effective activities anticipate and respond to customers, markets, and the systems in which they function. This evolution requires a broader conceptualization and more accurate definition, to convey a more dynamic, systemic, and integrative discipline, which increasingly is committed to value creation and the sustainable orchestration of food, fiber, and renewable resources. We discuss the forces driving this shift to the market, offer a new and more representative definition of agribusiness, provide models to illustrate some of the most compelling trends, and articulate key elements and implications of those models.agribusiness definition, conceptual models, market centric, market systems, Agribusiness, Marketing, Production Economics,
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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

Square Dancing with the Stars to Enhance Dynamic Hirschman Linkages?
No full textIn this Presidential Address, the author takes the reader on a reconnaissance of his life and time as a regional scientist. He points out scenery he found scintillating along the way, hoping that some may pick up the banner and chew on a few of the ideas for a while. He suggests a revisit to Albert O. Hirschman’s notion of key sectors and more empirical analysis related to Marcus Berliant’s and Masahisa Fujita’s notion of knowledge creation and transfer.Presidential Address, San Antonio, Texas, March 29, 2014 (53rd Meetings of the Southern Regional Science Association
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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

This photo is found on pg. 27 of the 1955 yearbook. One of the remaining two lads is Ken Schultz, but which one is not specified. Identities confirmed by J. Mills in 2014, but she was unable to find any other photo or mention of K. Shultz in any yearbook from the 1950's.Written in red ink along right and left edge: 'crop 1.' Written in pencil on reverse: '603' and '209.0.' Came in white mat with '209.0' written in pencil on reverse. Note from Art Gallery identifies four men as 'Eric Thersault [Theriault], Jack Carey, Ken Shultz, Joe Murphy'. From Art Gallery. Jack Carey and Joe Murphy can be found in 98.04.0301, which was photographed by Arthur Davies in 1953
