    Il diritto alla salute e l'accesso universale ai servizi sanitari: una sfida globale

    No full text
    L'idea di sanità universale è strettamente connessa all'attuazione di politiche che vedano la salute come diritto umano fondamentale. Il necessario rafforzamento dei sistemi sanitari, considerato un obiettivo di massima priorità in quest'ottica, rimane tuttavia un concetto vago, con svariate interpretazioni riguardo al ruolo attribuito ai sistemi nazionali. Questo libro, che si propone di affrontare il problema dell'equità nell'accesso ai servizi sanitari in una visione di sistema, è idealmente diviso in due parti: la prima presenta le sfide poste dalla copertura sanitaria universale secondo diverse prospettive, la seconda analizza alcune esperienze nazionali in paesi a diversi livelli di sviluppo economico e con sistemi sanitari differenti. "La lettura dei contributi che descrivono le diverse esperienze nazionali", sottolinea nella sua presentazione Giovanni Berlinguer, "suggerisce che laddove esista la volontà politica, indipendentemente dal livello di sviluppo di ciascun paese, è possibile procedere nella costruzione di sistemi sanitari che contribuiscano all'obiettivo della salute per tutti"

    Surface effects on turn-off characteristics of AlGaAs/GaAs HFETs

    No full text
    The gate-lag turn-off transient of as-fabricated and hut-carrier stressed power AlGaAs/GaAs NFETs is addressed by quantitatively comparing experimental data with device simulations accounting for the occupation dynamics of surface deep-acceptor trays. Gate-lag waveforms of increasingly degraded devices can be accurately simulated by suitably increasing the surface trap density

    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

    “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 link
    We 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 link
    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
