Palliativmedizin und Betäubungsmittelrecht - Möglichkeiten und Grenzen
No full textDie Etablierung palliativmedizinischer Versorgungsstrukturen im ambulanten Bereich hat in den vergangenen Jahren die ärztliche Betreuung von Palliativpatienten deutlich verändert. Eine an den spezifischen Bedürfnissen schwerstkranker Patienten orientierte Versorgung im häuslichen Umfeld erfordert es, bestehende gesetzliche Regelungen zu hinterfragen, anzupassen oder fortzuentwickeln. Kontrovers diskutiert wird, wie das Grundanliegen des Betäubungsmittelrechts — Schutz der Bevölkerung vor Abhängigkeit und Missbrauch sowie Sicherstellung der notwendigen medizinischen Versorgung — mit dem palliativmedizinischen Selbstverständnis der Gewährung einer bestmöglichen Behandlung von Schmerzpatienten in Einklang gebracht werden kann. In diesem Spannungsfeld fasst der Band die Beiträge eines Expertenworkshops zusammen, der 2012 von der Klinik für Palliativmedizin sowie dem Zentrum für Medizinrecht der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen veranstaltet wurde. Ergänzt um Beiträge weiterer Autoren werden aktuelle Konfliktbereiche im Verhältnis von (Betäubungsmittel-)Recht und Palliativmedizin aufgegriffen und im interdisziplinären Dialog beleuchtet.The collection is related to a workshop at the Georg-August-University Göttingen from 2012 and refers to the use of narcotics in palliative care. Experts of law and medicine discuss the situation of doctors leaving narcotics at their patients home, the prevailing legal norms and the need for reform

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
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
Recht am Krankenbett - Zur Kommerzialisierung des Gesundheitssystems
No full textMit dem Eintritt in das Zeitalter einer hochtechnisierten, auf ständige Optimierung ausgerichteten medizinischen Versorgung wachsen die Herausforderungen an die Finanzierbarkeit eines leistungsfähigen modernen Gesundheitswesens. Der Wunsch nach bestmöglicher Versorgung trifft unsanft auf die Erkenntnis, dass das System in Zukunft nicht mehr alles für alle wird leisten können. Nicht nur im Hinblick auf die Ausgestaltung der Leistungskataloge der gesetzlichen Kranken- und Pflegeversicherung, sondern ebenso für den Bereich der Transplantationsmedizin muss schon heute die Frage beantwortet werden, wie sich der Anspruch auf eine gerechte Verteilung der knapper werdenden Gesundheitsgüter in Zukunft noch einlösen lässt. Der vorliegende Band geht aus Vorträgen und Diskussionen der im November 2008 in Göttingen veranstalteten ELSA-Konferenz „Recht am Krankenbett – Die Kommerzialisierung des Gesundheitssystems“ hervor, die ELSA-Göttingen zusammen mit dem Göttinger Zentrum für Medizinrecht ausgerichtet hat. Der Band nimmt sich dieser aktuellen Thematiken an und will mit seinen zahlreichen Beiträgen aus gesundheitsökonomischer, medizinethischer und medizinrechtlicher Perspektive das interdisziplinäre Gespräch voranbringen. Verbindende Klammer ist die zentrale Frage nach der im europäischen Vergleich bestmöglichen Ausgestaltung eines ebenso patientenorientierten wie leistungsfähigen Gesundheitssystems
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
