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
Uji Efektivitas Antidiabetes Kombinasi Ekstrak Buah Pare (Momordica charantia L.) Dan Kelopak Bunga Rosella (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) Pada Tikus Jantan Putih Sebagai Hewan Percobaan
Full text linkDiabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by an increase in blood glucose levels which can be treated with traditional treatments derived from plants. One of the example is a plant that can reduce blood glucose levels are bitter melon and rosella which contain flavonoids to reduce blood glucose by increasing cell sensitivity to insulin and stimulating insulin release in pancreatic β cells. The objective of the research is to determine the effect of the combination of bitter melon extract and rosella petal extract in reducing blood glucose levels compared to glibenclamide. The method of the research is an experimental study used 21 rats induced by alloxan and divided into 7 groups. Extraction using maceration method with 80% ethanol. From the results of the study, each treatment group experienced a decrease in blood glucose levels. From the 7 treatment groups, the best reduction in blood glucose levels were the third combination group. Among the three combination groups, the combination dose of 225 mg/kgBB of bitter melon and 195 mg/kgBB of rosella flower petals was the best compared to glibenclamide in reducing blood glucose levels. The conclusion of the research is combination of bitter melon extract and rosella flower petals have an effect that are more effective in reducing blood glucose levels compared to glibenclamide and their single extract
Pengaruh Ekstrak Daun Benalu Duku (Dendrophthoe Pentandra (L.) Miq) terhadap Kadar Glukosa Darah (KGD), Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Malondialdehyde (MDA) dan Histopatologi Pankreas Tikus Hiperglikemia
No full textDiabetes mellitus is a disease that causes damage to β-pancreatic cells and
is widely associated with oxidative stress due to an imbalance between oxidants
and antioxidants in the body that causes the development of diabetic
complications. Benalu duku leaves (Dendrophthoe pentandra (L.) Miq) are plants
that have secondary metabolism, namely quercetin type flavonoids. Quercetin
exerts its antioxidant effect by inhibiting the production of lipid peroxides such as
MDA and triggering the production of endogenous antioxidants such as SOD in
NA and STZ-induced diabetic mice. This study aims to assess and analyze the
effect of benalu duku leaf extract (Dendrophtoe Pentandra (L.) Miq) on decreased
blood glucose levels (KGD), increased levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD),
decreased levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), and repair of pancreas β cells in
diabetic mice induced nicotinamide and streptozotosin.
This study used 24 mice divided into 6 groups. The EEDBD dose used in
this study was 100, 200, dn 400 mg/Kg BB, Glibenclamide 0.45 mg/Kg BB was
used as a positive control and CMC Na as a negative control, the normal group
used in this study. Diabetic rats are given benalu duku leaf extract every day.
Blood glucose levels were measured on days 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and 28, while
measurements of SOD, MDA and Histopathology levels were carried out on the
28th day.
The results of statistical analysis showed that the administration of EEDBD
doses of 400, 200, and 100 mg/Kg BB could significantly reduce KGD compared
to the negative control group. Administration of EEDBD 400, 200 and 100 mg/Kg
BB was able to lower MDA levels and increase SOD levels in nicotinamide and
streptozotocin-induced mice. Administration of EEDBD doses of 400, 200 and
100 mg/Kg BB was able to improve the histopathological picture of the pancreas
and increase the surface area of home Langerhans diabetic rats induced
nicotinamide and streptozotocin.167 HalamanTesis Magiste
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

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
