Bibliometric Analysis and Predictors of Citations for Publications of a Higher Institution

Purpose: This study aims to depict the productivity and impact of publications affiliated with Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST), and to identify bibliometric factors associated with the number of citations. Methods: Using keywords and identification numbers, Scopus and Web of Science were searched for all publications affiliated with JUST from 1987-2022. The retrieved data was imported, cleaned, visualized, and analyzed using stataIC 16, Excel 395 software, and VOSviewer software. The bibliometric analyses were conducted for types of publications, year of publications, type of journals, faculties, departments, faculty members, and most cited publications. Networking analyses were also conducted for international collaboration and keyword analysis using VOSviewer. Univariable and multivariable Poisson regression models were conducted to estimate the impact of several bibliometric factors on citation numbers. Results: A total of 16,830 publications were affiliated with JUST and published between 1986 and 2022. The total number of citations was 330,046. The average citation per publication was 19.6 and the institutional h-index was 165. Most publications were original articles (81.8%) and 71.7% were published in traditional (non-open) journals. Publication and citation numbers increased steadily, until 2013, and then exponentially, afterward. ? The Faculty of Engineering had the highest number of total publications (4,593), while the Faculty of Medicine had the highest number of total citations (148,384). Professor Yousef S. Khader ranks first as JUST's influential faculty? with 640 publications and 110,777 citations. Factors contributing to higher incidence rate for citations include years since publication, indexing in Scopus and WoS, reviews, publication in open-access journals, and collaboration. Network analysis revealed significant clusters of authors and keywords, with strong connections to the United States and Saudi Arabia. Conclusion: The productivity nd impact of JUST publications have improved annually for all faculties and departments. ?However, this improvement seems to be limited and can be explained by several factors. Further improvements in research productivity and impact are needed by implementing relevant strategies such as collaboration and interdisciplinary research, publishing in high-impact journals, considering open-access publishing, considering the potential societal impact of research, increasing visibility and reputation through appropriate affiliations, publishing review articles, and monitoring research output over time.

Rats in Epilepsy Research: A Bibliometric Analysis of Citations Between 1969 and 2020 on Experimental Models in Epilepsy.

Epilepsy stands as a prominent neurological disorder, affecting a substantial number of individuals who, unfortunately, do not respond to conventional antiepileptic medications. To unravel the intricate mechanisms underlying epileptic seizures and explore potential therapeutic avenues, researchers have turned to animal models. Among these models, rats have emerged as one of the cornerstones of epilepsy research. This bibliometric analysis embarks on the crucial task of delving into the role of rat models in deciphering the mysteries of epileptic seizures and, notably, pinpointing the most prevalent models in use. Our study harnessed Scopus' citation tracking feature to review a range of research papers dating from 1969 to 2020, all dedicated to the exploration of epileptic seizures in rats. The citations that emerged from this rigorous process were subjected to thematic coding, primarily centered around the specific epileptic animal models employed, and subsequently, comprehensive descriptive statistics were computed. In this effort, we found a total of 1,318 publications that explore the world of rat studies, accumulating a substantial citation count of 44,824 references. This analysis illuminated the invaluable role that research employing rat models has played in shaping our current clinical understanding of epileptic seizures. Notably, several models have emerged as predominant forces in this field, including those induced by pilocarpine, pentylenetetrazole (PTZ), kainic acid (KA), electric kindling, and electroshock. This bibliometric exploration serves as a resounding reminder of the pivotal position that rat models occupy in advancing our comprehension of epilepsy. These findings resonate strongly, underscoring the continued importance of directing research and development funding toward this debilitating disorder, with the ultimate aim of maximizing the benefits for the patients grappling with this condition. The potential to revolutionize our approach to epilepsy and enhance the quality of life for those affected remains a beacon of hope, illuminated by the contributions of these tireless researchers and their trusty rat companions.

Global trends in research related to functional dyspepsia and anxiety or depression over the past two decades: a bibliometric analysis.

Functional dyspepsia (FD) is a prevalent global disorder of the upper digestive tract characterized by functional impairment. It often coexists with anxiety/depression, significantly impairing occupational productivity and overall quality of life. This study aimed to identify emerging patterns and prominent themes within FD and anxiety/depression research through bibliometric analysis to help explore new innovative avenues for investigating this type of FD. A comprehensive review of literature encompassing FD and anxiety/depression was conducted using the Science Citation Index Extension of the Web of Science Core Collection from 2003 to 2023. Information extracted comprised "Full Record and Cited References." Bibliometric analysis of relevant publications, including country, institution, author, journal, citations, and keywords, was conducted using CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and Bibliometrix package in R and Excel. Studies related to FD and anxiety/depression have demonstrated an ascending trajectory since 2003. Our bibliometric analysis identified 338 studies published by 2023. NEUROGASTROENTEROLOGY AND MOTILITY emerged as the most prolific journal, while GASTROENTEROLOGY retained pre-eminence within the top 10 published journals. China emerged as the most prolific country, with two institutions within the top 10 in terms of volume of publications. The Mayo Clinic stood as the foremost institution in terms of publication volume, with the Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine exhibiting robust collaborative engagement. Eminent author influence was attributed to Talley NJ of Newcastle University, Australia. Clusters of extensively cited papers and prevalent keywords delineate the status and trend of FD and anxiety/depression research. This encompasses FD, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, and functional gastrointestinal disorders. Furthermore, the timeline view map or trend-term analysis suggested that duodenal low-grade inflammation ("duodenal eosinophilia" and "mast cells") might be a new concern associated with FD and anxiety/depression. Employing bibliometric analysis, this study revealed prevalent focal areas and new trends within FD and anxiety/depression research. These insights serve as valuable guidance for scholars seeking to delve into new research avenues.

Human health and climate change – an evolving discourse: A bibliometric citation analysis of top-cited articles within health sciences databases

BackgroundThe body of scientific literature on climate change and human health has exponentially grown over the past two decades, outlining a diverse list of health risks, vulnerable populations, protocols, and public policy frameworks. However, not all of these topics resonated equally among the health sciences community. This bibliometric citation analysis sets out to explore the priorities and interests reflected in the top cited articles on climate change and human health. MethodsWe searched the PubMed database for all publications containing the term "climate change" in either title, abstract, or keywords, published after January 1st, 2009. The NCBI Entrez API was used to collect citation counts for the retrieved articles. The search yielded 55,590 articles. The top 200 cited publications were manually analyzed and classified according to topic and type of article. Findings: Out of the 200 top-cited articles containing “Climate change” in either the title, abstract, or keywords, 40 articles engaged directly with human health or food security, receiving a total of 13,857 citations, with a range of 233–1865 citations (mean = 407.5, median = 316). Only 11 of the 40 articles were original studies. Infectious diseases were discussed in 24 of the 40 articles - 23 discuss vector-borne diseases. In comparison, only 11 refer to temperature extremes, 10 discuss nutritional insecurity and only 3 discuss migration and climate refugees. 50.9 % of all citations were published in either “Science” or “The Lancet”. InterpretationWhile climate change and human health had captured the attention of public policymakers, the consistent selection of resources and topics – favoring the Lancet commissions over environmental health publications and the IPCC, citing infectious diseases more frequently than mental health, air pollution, and extreme weather, and the overall relatively low number of citations – could indicate a low level of interest amongst the broader health sciences community.

A comparative study of international and Chinese digitization from the perspective of mapping knowledge domains

As a powerful tool to promote sustainable development, digitization profoundly impacts economic and social development. Systematically reviewing and performing econometric analyses of the literature in the digitization field can provide reference for the next stage of research. Based on the theory of bibliometric citation analysis and the knowledge domain mapping method, this study takes Web of Science United States (WOS) and Chinese Social Science Citation Index (CSSCI) as data sources and uses CiteSpace analysis tools to carry out data mining and visual comparative analysis on Chinese and international research hotspots, knowledge structure, and scientific research co-operation in the digitization field. The results show that (1) Chinese research hotspots and frontiers focus on digitization practice, while international research hotspots and frontiers focus on digitization theory, (2) that there is an ageing fault in the classic Chinese digitization literature, and the classic international digitization literature constantly changes with research hotspots, (3) and that the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom are at the centre of the international digitization scientific research cooperation network. There is close cooperation among international institutions and authors. There are few contacts between Chinese institutions. Chinese authors have less cooperation with authors from other countries in the world.

Intellectual capital and sustainable startup performance: A bibliometric analysis

Intellectual capital (IC) and sustainable startup performance (SP) are the two pillars required for the survival of ventures. Besides, the competitiveness of new ventures is ensured by the importance of intangible assets within the firm as well as strategies implemented by the startup founders. This study aims to map the conceptual structure of research on intellectual capital and sustainable startup performance conducted between 2002 and 2021 using bibliometric citation analysis. For that purpose, 292 papers from the Scopus database are scrutinized further to determine the publication activities of the concerned area. Vosviewer and Excel software were used to analyze the data. It is found that the publication activities of IC and SP are a relatively new concept that emerged in 2002 and is showing a favorable trend. The study discovered that most intellectual capital studies focus on sustainable startup performance, innovative capabilities, and knowledge management practices.

Coastal Adaptation and Vulnerability Assessment in a Warming Future: A Systematic Review of the Tourism Sector

The uncertainty behind a warming climate produces significant risk for communities that rely on tourism, but vulnerability assessment can help inform planning for adaptation and mitigation efforts. Since coastal regions have significant tourism economies, and rely on the tourism sector for socio-economic stability, we seek to understand how assessments of vulnerability have been applied in coastal communities by systemically assessing literature that describes the concepts of adaptation, resilience, and vulnerability. We conducted a systematic search across three peer-reviewed journal databases (Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed) to compare the types of methods and models used to determine coastal adaptation and vulnerability in various geographical and demographic settings. The systematic process found 205 unique articles; 143 were deemed relevant as they focused on adaptation, resilience, or vulnerability assessment. A qualitative analysis of the key themes of relevant studies, identified using thematic coding, found that vulnerability and adaptation research in tourism-based coastal communities is predominantly done through qualitative methods, researched more frequently in higher-populated areas of Europe and North America, have a focus on water as a driver of vulnerability, focus on socio-economic impacts of vulnerability, and emphasize locally-based knowledge in understanding adaptive capacity. Bibliometric analysis of citations and mentions in social-media reveal a larger number of papers with a higher citation rate focused on coastal-based systems (salt-water) with an emphasis on regional studies rather than those with a specific urban or rural focus. We found few studies aimed at coastal communities using tourism operators as informants, but rural coastal communities had higher social-media metrics indicating their comparative public importance. Thus, we highlight the need for locally-informed case studies in vulnerability and adaptation assessment for small coastal communities.

Past, present and future impact of social media on health workers’ mental health: a text mining approach

PurposeThe COVID-19 epidemic has brought attention to the variables that influence the mental health of health workers who are entrusted with nursing individuals. Despite the fact that many articles have examined the effects of social media usage on mental health, there is a lack of research synthesizing learning from this body of research. The purpose of this study is to use text mining and citation-based bibliometric analysis to conduct a detailed review of extant literature on health workers’ mental health and social networking habits.Design/methodology/approachThis study conducts a full-text analysis of 36 articles selected on health workers' mental health and social media using text-mining techniques in R programming and a bibliometric citation analysis of 183 papers from the Scopus database in VOS viewer software. But the limitations of the methods used in this study are that the bibliometric analysis was limited to the Scopus database because the VOS viewer program did not support any other database and the text-mining approach caused the natural processing redundancy.FindingsThe bibliometric analysis reveals the thematic networks that exist in the literature of health workers’ mental health and social networking. The findings from text mining identified ten topic models, which helped to find the related papers classified in ten different groups and are provided alongside a summary of the published research and a list of the primary authors with posterior probability through Latent Dirichlet Allocation.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first hybrid review, combining text mining and bibliometric review, on health workers’ mental health where social networking plays a moderating role. This paper critically provides an overview of the impact of social networking on health workers' mental health, presents the most important and frequent topics, introduces the scientific visualization of articles published in the Scopus database and suggests further research avenues. These findings are important for academics, health practitioners and medical specialists interested in learning how to better support the mental health of health workers using social media.

A Curious Case of Eroded Citations and the Current Status of Top 50 Cited Articles by Indian Periodontists: A Bibliometric Analysis

Context: The bibliometric studies on topmost articles on many subjects are available and fascinating, but there is no research available analyzing the fate of top-cited articles. The citation to an article is a dynamic process which is dependent on a multitude of factors and may indicate the direction of research. Aims: The aim of this study was to analyze using bibliometric approach the current status of the top 50 cited articles by Indian periodontists based on the PubMed database published in 2014. Settings and Design: The study was conducted at the Departments of Periodontology at Dental Council of India recognized Maharashtra Institute of Dental Sciences & Research, Latur. It is a comparative follow-up bibliometric citation analysis of publications by Indian Periodontists. Subjects and Methods: All the 50 top-cited articles were individually searched on PubMed and Google Scholar databases for their availability and citations. The citations received by these articles till November 25, 2022, by 11.00 a.m. Indian Standard Time were subjected to detailed analyses. Statistical Analysis Used: Descriptive statistics using mean, median, range, percentages, and proportions were used for analysis. Results: Total citations to the 50 articles were increased from 597 (2012) to 932 (2022) with an overall increase of 6.7 citations/article. Seventeen (34%) articles showed a decrease in citations as compared to 2012 numbers; a decline of 99 citations with an average of 5.8 citations/article. One article showed no change, and the rest 32 (64%) noted an increase by 434, averaging 13.6 citations/article. The topmost 2012 article was relegated to the 10th spot in 2022 while it remained at the 6th spot in Google Scholar citations. In 2022, the topmost article received 57 PubMed and 466 Google Scholar citations. Conclusions: A top-cited or classic article may not remain at that position through its lifecycle, but goes on receiving citations. There are instances of “erosion in citations” as well which needs to be recognized and awareness among researchers is necessary. There is a need to identify the current top 50 classic articles and compare them with these to understand the focus on current research topics.

Publications on COVID-19 in radiology journals in 2020 and 2021: bibliometric citation and co-citation network analysis.

The pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has led to the rapid publication of numerous radiology articles, primarily focused on disease diagnosis. The objective of this study is to analyze the intellectual structure of radiology research on COVID-19 using a citation and co-citation analysis. We identified all documents about COVID-19 published in radiology journals included in the Web of Science in the period 2020-2021, conducting a citation analysis. Then we identified all bibliographic references that were cited by these documents, generating a co-citation matrix that was used to perform a co-citation network. Of the 3418 documents indexed in WoS, 857 were initially "Early Access," 2223 had citations, 393 had more than 20 citations, and 83 had more than 100 citations. The USA had the highest number of publications (32.62%) and China had the highest rate of funded studies (45.38%). The three authors with the most publications were affiliated with Italian institutions, while the five most cited authors were Chinese. A total of 647 publications were co-cited at least 12 times and were published in 206 different journals, with 49% of the documents found in radiology journals. The institutions with the greatest presence among these co-cited articles were Chinese and American. This co-citation analysis is the first to focus exclusively on radiology articles on COVID-19. Our study confirms the existence of interrelated thematic clusters with different specific weights. • As the pandemic caused by SARS-Cov-2 has led to the rapid publication of numerous radiology studies in a short time period, a bibliometric review based on citation and co-citation analysis has been conducted. • The co-citation analysis supported the identification of key themes in the study of COVID-19 in radiology publications. • Many of the most co-cited articles belong to a heterogeneous group of publications, with authors from countries that are far apart and even from different disciplines.
