Leading countries in global science increasingly receive more citations than other countries doing similar research.

Citations and text analysis are both used to study the distribution and flow of ideas between researchers, fields and countries, but the resulting flows are rarely equal. We argue that the differences in these two flows capture a growing global inequality in the production of scientific knowledge. We offer a framework called 'citational lensing' to identify where citations should appear between countries but are absent given that what is embedded in their published abstract texts is highly similar.

Successful treatment of a dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma of the proximal humerus with a hemicortical articular surface sparing allograft: A case report.

Introduction: Dedifferentiated chondrosarcomas are rare and highly malignant tumors that require wide surgical resection. Survival is extremely poor without adequate surgical margins. We present a case of articular sparing surgery of the shoulder for dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma with excellent functional outcomes and no evidence of disease after fifty-six months.

Clustering knowledge and dispersing abilities enhances collective problem solving in a network.

Diversity tends to generate more and better ideas in social settings, ranging in scale from small-deliberative groups to tech-clusters and cities. Implicit in this research is that there are knowledge-generating benefits from diversity that comes from mixing different individuals, ideas, and perspectives. Here, we utilize agent-based modeling to examine the emergent outcomes resulting from the manipulation of how diversity is distributed and how knowledge is generated within communicative social structures.

Magnetic Intramedullary Lengthening Nails and MRI Compatibility.

Background: Magnetic intramedullary nails (IMNs) are fully implantable lengthening devices that became available in the United States in 2011 for the correction of limb length discrepancies. This device represents a major advancement in the field of limb lengthening surgery as it is typically tolerated better than external fixation. Unlike traditional IMNs, surgeons recommend routine removal following limb lengthening.

Identifying diffusion patterns of research articles on Twitter: A case study of online engagement with open access articles.

The growing presence of research shared on social media, coupled with the increase in freely available research, invites us to ask whether scientific articles shared on platforms like Twitter diffuse beyond the academic community. We explore a new method for answering this question by identifying 11 articles from two open access biology journals that were shared on Twitter at least 50 times and by analyzing the follower network of users who tweeted each article. We find that diffusion patterns of scientific articles can take very different forms, even when the number of times they are tweeted is similar.

The dynamics of nestedness predicts the evolution of industrial ecosystems.

In economic systems, the mix of products that countries make or export has been shown to be a strong leading indicator of economic growth. Hence, methods to characterize and predict the structure of the network connecting countries to the products that they export are relevant for understanding the dynamics of economic development. Here we study the presence and absence of industries in international and domestic economies and show that these networks are significantly nested.
