What do surgeons want to know about clinical law?
No full textIntroduction: what do surgeons want to know about law pertaining to their practice? We have found nothing in the literature to address this subject. We present evidence to answer our question.Methods: retrospective review was conducted of all enquires to a clinical law service in a university hospital between 2009 and 2023. Each ‘case’ originating from a surgeon was categorised according to its fundamental legal phenotype.Results a total of 1,476 enquiries relating to clinical law were received from the clinical workforce in the hospital and the region. Of these, 154 enquiries (13%) were made by surgeons representing all 10 specialty groups and dentistry. The largest groups of enquiries related to professional conduct (n=49), competence/capacity (n=33), consent (n=23) and refusal of treatment (n=23). The incidence of the surgical enquiries relating to refusal of care, consent, standards of care and capacity mirrored those made by non-surgical specialties. The surgical enquiries concerning confidentiality, candour and withdrawal of treatment were notably infrequent. We discuss the detail of some of the clinical scenarios arising from these enquiries that reveal the breadth and depth of legal complexities faced by surgeons of all specialties.Conclusions: patterns or phenotypes of surgical legal dilemmas have emerged that could provide a framework for preparing surgeons to deal better with the patient in front of them. Enquiries indicative of what surgeons want to know suggest gaps in surgical legal knowledge that may be a focus of future education. Near-absence of enquiries in candour and confidentiality are notable, without immediate explanation
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
