    La presente investigación tiene de objetivo describir los trastornos temporomandibulares que presentan etiología multifactorial, las alteraciones en la postura como dorsalgias corporales tienen influencia en estas patologías. Métodos: Investigación cualitativa. Se utilizaron el método de medición el Test de Krogh-Paulsen, es menester de este trabajo evidenciar los trastornos temporomandibulares y su relación con dorsopatias posturales, en estudiantes de la Universidad Nacional Daniel Alcides Carrión Pasco 2019, de los cuales obtuvimos derivaciones cualitativas. Con 87 pacientes mayores de 17 años. Para esta investigación descriptivo se aplicó un nivel de confianza de 95%. Llegando a conclusiones de resultados: El grupo del estudio fue entre 17 y 27 años, con 40.23% (35). Donde participaron pacientes del género masculino con 55.17% (48).

    Objetivo: Determinar los factores de riesgo asociados a Tuberculosis Extrapulmonar (TBEP) en el Programa de Control de Tuberculosis (PCT) del Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo (HNDM) de enero – diciembre 2024. Metodología: Estudio observacional, retrospectivo y transversal con registros del PCT-HNDM (enero–diciembre 2024). Muestra total n=148 (Tuberculosis Extrapulmonar TBEP=66; Tuberculosis Pulmonar TBP=82). Se aplicó estadística descriptiva; contraste TBEP vs TBP para Hipótesis específica 1 e Hipótesis específica 2 H1i–H2i (χ² o Fisher; OR crudo, IC95%); y, dentro de TBEP, contraste TB-SNC (sí/no) para Hipótesis específica 3 H3i (Fisher; OR, IC95%); α=0,05. Resultados: En TBEP predominó el sexo masculino (59,1%) y la adultez 25–59 años (54,5%). Tabaquismo (22,7%) y alcohol (21,2%) fueron los hábitos más frecuentes; Virus de Inmunodeficiencia Humana (VIH) y comorbilidad (≥1) alcanzaron 9,1% cada uno. En TBEP vs TBP, no hubo mayor prevalencia de TBEP por sexo ni por adultez; comorbilidad (≥1) resultó significativa a la inversa (más frecuente en TBP). En el intragrupo TBEP, VIH se asoció con TB-SNC (OR=10; p=0,026); el resto de factores (sexo, comorbilidad, tabaquismo, alcohol, drogas, antecedente de TB) no mostró asociación. Conclusiones: La TBEP mantiene alta participación en la carga de TB del HNDM (=45%). El perfil sociodemográfico de TBEP es adulto y masculino, con mayor proporción de secundaria y solteros. En antecedentes, tabaquismo y alcohol son los más frecuentes; VIH está presente en -9%. Para el análisis asociativo dentro de TBEP, VIH emerge como factor de riesgo de TB-SNC, mientras que otros factores no muestran asociación estadística en esta poblaciónTesi

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We 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
