Comparison of safety, efficacy and outcomes of robot assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty vs conventional laparoscopy
Cold snare EMR of a flat lesion in the right colon of a high-risk patient
After cold snare polypectomy (CSP) has gained consensus for the treatment of small colorectal polyps, cold endoscopic mucosal resection (c-EMR) has been recently proposed for lesions of larger diameter, with satisfactory outcomes regarding immediate and delayed bleeding or perforation. In our case, an 88-year-old female patient with recent coronary stenting had an outpatient colonoscopy for chronic anemia. C-EMR en bloc was performed uneventfully, even though the patient was on dual antiplatelet therap

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
ACCUMULATION OF A CELLULAR PROTEIN BEARING C-MYC-LIKE ANTIGENICITY IN HEPATIC AND NONHEPATIC DELTA-ANTIGEN EXPRESSING CELLS
Patients with chronic but not acute hepatitis delta virus infection undergo a strong accumulation of a protein of cellular origin which specifically reacts with a panel of anti-c-myc antibodies and which is expressed in the same nuclei that express the delta antigen. In this paper we report on the in vitro characterization of this phenomenon. The delta antigen induced c-myc antigen accumulation can occur in vitro upon transfection of HBsAg positive and negative cell lines with HDAg expression vectors. Using recombinant vaccinia viruses expressing only p24 or p27 we demonstrate that structures common to the two isoforms of HDAg are responsible for the phenomenon, which is not restricted to cells of hepatic origin

The Right to Strike under the United States Constitution: Theory, Practice, and Possible Implications for Canada
Answering critics of the Canadian Supreme Court's judgment in B.C. Health, the author argues that the Court laid the foundation for a principled and durable doctrine protecting constitutional labour rights, one that goes directly to the heart of the matter — the inequality of workers’ power in the employment relation. In the author’s view, two paths could lead from B.C. Health to the recognition of Charter protec- tion for a right to strike: one that treats the right as an accessory to col- lective bargaining, and one that upholds the right directly on the basis of the Charter values of equality and participation. The author supports the latter approach, contending that constitutional rights should be defined in relation to fundamental values, in a way that is not contingent on time-bound or fact-sensitive assessments about the role of strikes within a particular collective bargaining regime. Although a Charter right to strike may involve the courts in difficult choices about when to defer to legislative policy decisions, and courts may lack the institutional capac- ity to deal effectively with labour law issues, the author points out that judges can look to ILO standards for expert guidance. Noting that the U.S. experience in this area might be of considerable use to Canadians, the author concludes by providing an overview of American case law concerning a constitutional right to strike.Peer reviewe
