Abstract

To the Editor: Following an article by Maymone et al1 that listed top dermatologists based on the number of citations, Szeto et al2 described the most highly published dermatologists worldwide using the h-index (a metric that combines the number of published articles and their citation impact), which was calculated from the Web of Science (WoS). For example, 10 publications cited at least 10 times yield an h-index of 10. Although WoS includes many scientific journals, the Scopus database is more inclusive, and an analysis of h-index based on Scopus provides a different ranking of top authors in dermatology.
