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

Activity and Safety of Dose-Adjusted Infusional Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone Chemotherapy With Rituximab in Very Elderly Patients With Poor-Prognostic Untreated Diffuse Large B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
BACKGROUND: This study was designed to assess the activity and safety of dose-adjusted infusional cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone chemotherapy with rituximab (DA-POCH-R) in elderly patients with poor-prognostic untreated diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (DLBCL). METHODS: From April 2006 to November 2009, 23 patients, aged >= 70 years, with an age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (IPI) of 2 or 3, were enrolled. Only patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >= 50% were allowed. The DA-POCH-R regimen was administered every 3 weeks for a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 8 cycles. RESULTS: Median patient age was 77 years (range, 70-90 years); 83% of patients had Ann Arbor stage III to IV disease. Median LVEF at baseline was 62%. Four (17%) patients had a history of abnormal cardiovascular conditions. Twenty-one (91%) patients were evaluable for response. The overall response rate was 90%, with a complete response rate of 57%. The 3-year overall survival and event-free survival rates were 56% and 54%, respectively. Neutropenia (48%) was the most frequent grade 3 to 4 adverse event (AE); no grade 3 to 4 cardiac AEs were observed. CONCLUSIONS: DA-POCH-R was an active and safe combination therapy for patients aged >= 70 years with poor-prognostic untreated DLBCL. This regimen was a reasonable alternative for elderly patients who were not considered to tolerate standard R-CHOP treatment. Cancer 2011;117:964-73. (C) 2010 American Cancer Society
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
