    Background Onchocerciasis is known in Sudan since 1933. It, now, prevails in three foci: southern, northern and eastern focus (Sundus area). Sundus area was studied last time in mid 1980s. The actual status of the disease in Sundus area was not clear, because some villages to be hyper-endemic at that time, were abandoned and the population resettled in other areas. Objectives This study was designed to provide the actual information of skin and eye lesions due to onchocerciasis, in Sundus area, eastern Sudan. Methodology Two clinics were setup in the area, and all individuals coming to these clinics were included in the study. They were subjected to physical examination for dermatological changes and ophthalmic examination using slit lamp biomicroscope and direct ophthalmoscope. Results Total number of 302 individuals was examined, of which 87 individuals (28.8%) were found to have onchocercal skin disease. The commonest type was lichenified onchodermatitis (18.5%) and chronic papular onchodermatitis (11.6%). The localized onchodermatitis (Sowda) was seen in 19 subjects. No case of blindness was recorded; however, ocular changes were seen in 43 individuals (14.2%) including corneal opacity and cataract.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    No full text
    “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
