Abstract Introduction H‐index is a widely used metric quantifying researcher's productivity and impact based on an author's publications citations. Though convenient to calculate, h‐index fails incorporate collaborations interrelationships between physicians into its assessment of academic impact, leading limited insight grouped networks. We present social network analysis as tool measure relationships quantify their impact. Methods A bibliometric multicenter was conducted physician faculty...
ABSTRACT Background Time from surgery to initiation of postoperative radiation therapy (PORT) less than 6 weeks was recently instituted as the first quality metric within head and neck cancer care. Methods We performed a retrospective single institution cohort study investigate predictors PORT delay impact on survival. Results rate 73.2%, with median time treatment 51 days. Outside facility independently associated increased likelihood (OR 1.94, 95% CI 1.03–3.74, p = 0.043). location did not...
We propose a novel network generative model extended from the standard stochastic block by concurrently utilizing observed node-level information and accounting for network-enabled nodal heterogeneity. The proposed is so so-called covariate-assisted latent factor (CALF-SBM). inference done in fully Bayesian framework. primary application of CALF-SBM present research focused on community detection, where model-selection-based approach employed to estimate number communities which practically...
Introduction Many clinical, social, and even economic factors have been extensively analyzed in the literature shown to influence length of stay (LOS) after spinal procedures. However, surgeon's experience was mostly examined relative a learning curve not regarding time practice. The primary objective this study determine effect one on LOS patients undergoing one- two-level transforaminal lumbar interbody fusions (TLIFs). Materials Methods design retrospective cohort hospital discharge data....
