The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical factors affecting on the complete rate from the clinical pathway in minimally invasive and open surgery for gastric cancer, and to establish a subgroup of patients who can be applied by the early recovery after surgery program through this retrospective analysis.
Methods. In this retrospective study, we analyzed 425 patients who underwent gastric cancer surgery from January 2011 to December 2011 and were managed with conventional clinical pathway. This clinical pathway was made as the patients in minimally invasive surgery group start the diet and discharge from hospital one day faster than them in open surgery group.
Results. The completion rate of the clinical pathway was 62.4%. Despite the different applications of clinical pathway, completion rate in minimally invasive surgery group was significantly higher than it in open group (P< .001).In multivariate analysis, the surgical procedure of minimally invasive surgery (Odd ratio = 4.281) was most predictable factor to complete clinical pathway. Additionally, younger patients (Odd ratio = 1.933) who underwent distal gastrectomy (Odd ratio = 1.999) without combined resection (Odd ratio = 3.069) were predicted to accomplish the clinical pathway without modifications.
Conclusion. We concluded that high efficacy of the clinical pathway for gastric cancer surgery was expected to selected patients through retrospective analysis (Expected complete rate = 85.4%). In addition, these patients would become enrolled criteria for early recovery program in gastric cancer surgery
The Promises and Pitfalls of Taxing Carbon = Las Promesas y los Problemas de Gravar el Carbono
No full textCarbon taxes are an important part of the policy toolbox for addressing climate change. Some economists, like William Nordhaus, have gone so far as to claim that “raising the price of carbon is a necessary and sufficient step for tackling global warming” (Nordhaus 2008, p. 22). Others have expressed skepticism about the efficacy of carbon taxes, at least as they have been configured so far (Green, 2021). Nevertheless, there is broad agreement—especially amongst economists—that carbon taxes are a critical policy instrument for disincentivizing unsustainable behavior and making green alternatives more attractive (Mintz-Woo, 2022; Mintz-Woo, 2024)
Energy Spotlight
No full textFour articles recently published in ACS Energy Letters are featured in this Energy Spotlight. These highlights include bright light-emitting diodes based on FAPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals, an ACS Editors Choice Article of this month (highlighted by Tae-Woo Lee); reversible p-doping of CsPbBr3 nanocrystals via electrochemical hole injection (highlighted by Csaba Janáky); and managing surface defects to improve the perovskite solar cell performance (highlighted by Filippo De Angelis). These and other articles included in this issue provide exciting new advances in energy conversion and storage processes.N

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
