Highest Number Of Citations Research Articles

Cardiology as seen through social media

The use of social media (SoMe) has spread worldwide among doctors, scientific societies, and researchers. SoMe offer a powerful platform to accelerate or create new contacts, spread scientific news, and increase visibility. A social media promotion strategy for cardiovascular medicine papers seems to be associated with increased online visibility and a higher number of citations. This effect is independent of the type of article and the total number of followers of the authors. Indeed, SoMe are democratic and even non-senior researchers may be popular on Twitter: your title is not as important as what you do on Twitter. Nevertheless, some physicians may be over-celebrated due to their presence on SoMe. This is why a new author index, the K-index, has been proposed. The K-index correlates the citations of a scientist with the number of Twitter followers. Even scientific journals and societies have recognized the importance of SoMe and in the last years they have appeared on SoMe with official accounts. Therefore, besides the classic impact factor, publishers now pay more and more attention to other parameters, such as the Altmetric score, which takes into account the number of citations, but also the number of downloads, mentions on SoMe, newspapers and tv news, web sites, and blogs. The COVID-19 pandemic has boosted the importance of SoMe for scientific content distribution, particularly for congresses. For all these reasons, it is important to understand the pros and cons of SoMe. It is also possible that SoMe will become a new education medium for continuing medical education.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the leading cause of skin-related disease burden worldwide, affecting a large percentage of the population. Bibliometrics is the statistical analysis of academic literature in a certain field. We aimed to perform the latest bibliometric analysis of atopic dermatitis literature. We searched the Web of Science database on 29th Nov 2021. We used the keywords "atopic dermatitis," "atopic eczema," and "eczema" for our search. All items published between 2001 and 2021 were included. The top 100 most cited articles were identified and analyzed. Our study provided a detailed bibliometric analysis of the top 100 most cited articles on atopic dermatitis. These articles were published between 2002 and 2019 and were from 15 different countries, mostly in the USA and Germany. Most articles have focused on the pathogenesis and treatment of AD. The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology made the greatest contribution to the top 100 list, with 28 articles. The most cited article originated from Lancet. The highest number of citations was seen in 2006, with 9220 citations, while the highest number of publications was seen in 2006 with 12 publications. Our study aims to provide physicians and researchers with a historical perspective for the scientific progress of atopic dermatitis, and help clinicians effectively obtain useful articles that have a significant impact on the field of atopic dermatitis.

Cerebellar Liponeurocytoma: Publication Trends, Scientometrics Analysis, and Critical Review

The literature on cerebellar liponeurocytoma (CL) has never been systematically assessed using bibliometric analytic methodologies. We quantitatively analyzed the major trends and scientific output regarding CL, highlighting potential avenues for research. Elsevier's Scopus database was used to collect all published studies relevant to cerebellar liponeurocytoma from 1978 to 2021. The specific bibliometric parameters were extracted and analyzed with R v4.1.2. Our search yielded 108 documents published in 67 sources from 1978 to 2021. The annual growth rate of publications regarding CL has been 7.47% per year since 1978. Journals with the most publications on CL include Clinical Neuropathology and Neurology India (n= 5), followed by Acta Neuropathologica and Journal of Neuro-oncology (n= 4). A total of 529 authors have published on CL and they have been cited 598 times. The 10 most influential authors in the field were determined using their total number of citations and the local H-index. Kleihues P has the highest number of citations (n= 177) with a local H index of 3, followed by Chimelli L with 167 citations and a local H index of 4. Davis DG has 149 citations and a local H index of 3. China had the most single country publications followed by India, Italy, and the USA. France and Austria have the most multiple country publications followed by China, Tunisia, Brazil, United Kingdom, Egypt, and Israel. Our study is the first bibliometric analysis evaluating the present literature and publication trends in CL. Generally, the current literature has a few studies regarding CL relative to other neuro-oncological pathologies. This can be due to the low incidence of the disease and highlights a need for high volume database studies that can offer high quality evidence on the subject.

What Drives Faculty Publication Citations in the Business Field? Empirical Results from an AACSB Middle Eastern Institution

This paper examines how journal-, article-, and author-related factors influence citation counts in the business field using 236 journal articles collected from an AACSB medium research output business school in the Middle East between 2017 and 2021. Results from association tests demonstrated that journal rank and format, the subfield of the article, and author prestige are significantly related to the number of citations. Results from CHAID further demonstrated the presence of an interaction/joint effect among variables; in particular: (1) articles published in Q1 WoS journals that are also authored/co-authored by prestige authors resulted in the highest number of citations; (2) articles published in Q2–Q3 WoS journals that also belonged to the business and management domain resulted in an average number of citations, and (3) articles published in Q4 or unranked journals in WoS also ranked Q3–Q4 or unranked in Scimago resulted in the lowest number of citations. These results provide theoretical implications and practical recommendations for faculty and business schools interested in enhancing their scholarly impact and rankings.

EDITORIAL. Leer versus citar un trabajo. Análisis de nuestras publicaciones en los últimos años.

In this editorial, I want to focus on a dilemma: Is the citation of a paper much better than accessing and reading it? What is more important for science in real life? A citation may be relevant, but accessing a journal’s article could be crucial if it has some application. Our inclusion in Crossref has permitted us to determine the communicational impact of the published articles as a measure of their reading extension, revealing a monthly mean of 1050 readings this year. As we expected, most of the readings came from COVID-19 issues and review articles. Another metric of our publications is related to the number of visitors to our journal web page: in 2021, we received 1300 visits. On the other hand, our pres-ence in WoS and Scopus has shown a modest impact on citations, which is more evident in WoS. About different papers published on the subject, Hirsh 1 pointed out that the journal’s impact increases if the readers pay more attention to review articles instead of primary re-search articles. The H-index is another metric used to determine the journal’s impact based on the number of citations. According to Scopus, our journal has an H-index of 22. Jeang 2 mentions, in his article about the H-Index and the differences between the frequency of citations and accessing, that a higher number of readings can produce an increased number of citations. But conversely, a high number of citations of one article does not imply a high number of readings. Finally, in the work of Shanta et al. 3 they concluded that the accurate measurement of the impact of a paper is the number of times a medical practitioner uses the information contained in that paper to improve the quality of the treatment. For our part, we will advocate striving to ensure that the works we publish have sufficient quality to be cited but also to be presented to arouse interest in its reading and their results put into practice.

Current trends and hotspots in drug-resistant epilepsy research: Insights from a bibliometric analysis.

Drug-resistance is a significant clinical issue in persons with epilepsy. In the past few years, many studies have been published investigating the management of drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE); however, no systematic and quantitative evaluation of this research has been performed. Therefore, a bibliometric analysis was conducted to demonstrate the current status of DRE research and to reflect the trends and hotspots within the field. We retrieved publications on DRE published between 2011 and 2021 from the Science Citation Index Expanded of the Web of Science Core Collection. All articles related to DRE were included in this study. VOSviewer, R software, and CiteSpace were used to perform bibliometric research. A total of 3,088 original articles were included in this study. The number of publications on DRE has continued to increase over the past 11 years. The USA published the most papers with the highest number of citations and H-index. The National Institutes of Health and the University of Toronto were the most prolific funding agency and affiliation, respectively. Epilepsy & Behavior and Epilepsia ranked first as the most prolific and co-cited journals, respectively. The keywords "cannabidiol", "neuromodulation", "seeg" and "perampanel" revealed recent research hotspots. The top 100 most cited papers were classified into eight main topics, of which pharmacotherapy, disease mechanisms/pathophysiology, and neuromodulation were the three most important topics. This analysis of bibliometric data demonstrated that DRE has always been a topical area of research. The mechanisms of epilepsy and therapies have been the focus of DRE research, and innovative antiseizure medications and surgical approaches are fast-developing research trends.

Scientific Research Trend in Biorefineries in India: Analysis and Systematic Review

The aim of this article is to provide a comparative analysis regarding the production of the scientific research of biorefineries in India using Web of Science and Scopus databases. The rate of growth of publications, production, citation, correlation and overlap between databases, authors, journals and universities has been analyzed. The results of both databases show exponential growth of publications in India from 2015-2020 on the topic of biorefineries. The index of citations per document is similar in WoS and Scopus. The correlation of citations was found to be high between databases used. Most Indian authors publish in quartile 1 (Q1) journals. Most of the published documents are review and the highest number of citations were found in the journal "Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews". Both databases present a series of publications on the topic of biorefinery by authors from India, the difference between the databases lies in the indexing criteria and the updating of the journals.

A Bibliometric Analysis of High-Intensity Interval Training in Cardiac Rehabilitation.

As global quality of life has improved, the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases have gradually increased in prevalence. People have consequently sought to improve their health through physical exercise. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a cardiac rehabilitation (CR) tool that has been of great interest for several years. However, its feasibility and safety remain controversial. This study aimed to explore hot research topics and new directions regarding the role of HIIT in CR and to describe the dynamic development of the field. We used the Web of Science Core Collection database to develop visualizations using CiteSpace software (v.6.1.R2). The number of articles published, institutional collaboration networks, author partnerships, and keyword co-occurrence and clustering were used to analyze the impact of HIIT on CR. Our results showed that Norway, Canada, and the United States were the most prominent contributors to this field. Articles by Nigam, A and Juneau, M had the highest number of citations. The Norwegian University of Science and Technology had performed the most in-depth research in this area. The European Journal of Preventive Cardiology had published the most articles. The United States had the highest number of publishing journals. Relevant issues focused on coronary artery disease, exercise capacity, heart failure, cardiorespiratory fitness, and physical activity. HIIT in heart transplantation may be at the forefront of research in this field and future studies should focus on this topic. HIIT-based CR can therefore improve the exercise capacity and quality of life of cardiovascular patients and improve patient compliance in a safe manner.

Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis on the Integration of Geographic Information Systems and Building Information Modeling for the Generation and Management of 3D Models

3D virtual management is a topic of growing interest. The AEC industry is undergoing a real revolution because of the technological changes that are taking place. Synchronized 3D visualization is one of the tools being deployed at an accelerated pace. This, together with collaborative work, contributes to optimal management for all stakeholders. The integration of geographic information systems and building information modeling and heritage BIM is one of the most innovative concepts; it enables the generation of collaborative, fluid systems. The objective of this research is to identify the most significant technological developments and potential applications of the aforementioned integration. For this purpose, after a bibliographic consultation (26,245 sources), two analyses are carried out (from the screening of 179 sources), one quantitative (bibliometric) and the other qualitative (focused on five key concepts). The results show that regarding the integration of GIS with BIM and HBIM, the highest concentration of contributions is in engineering with 30.66%, followed by computer science with 21.01%. The country with the highest number of citations is China with 717, followed by Australia and the USA with 549 and 513, respectively, but relativizing the number of citations based on various indices (human development index, gross national income per capita, and population-tertiary education level), Hong Kong (18.04), Australia (10.64), and Egypt (10.16) would take the top positions, respectively. Regarding universities, the entity that has generated the most references is Delft University of Technology (the Netherlands) with 15 papers, followed by University College London (UK) with 13. Finally, the results show that GIS and BIM and HBIM provide virtual 3D models with multiple applications for buildings and infrastructures.

China has made the largest contribution in this field. In terms of institutions, Fudan University has the most number of publications. Recently, IEEE Access is the most published journal. Suri J. S. published most of the articles and had the highest number of citations in this field (29 articles). It's worth noting that, convolutional neural networks (CNN), as a kind of deep learning algorithm, was considered to bring better image analysis and processing ability in recent most-cited articles. According to the analysis of keywords, the latest keyword is “COVID-19” (2020.8). The co-occurrence analysis of keywords by VOSviewer visually presented four clusters which consisted of “deep learning,” “machine learning,” “application in the field of visceral organs,” and “application in the field of cardiovascular”. The latest hot words of these clusters were “COVID-19; neural-network; hepatocellular carcinoma; atherosclerotic plaques”. This study reveals the importance of multi-institutional and multi-field collaboration in promoting research progress.

10 Years of Toxicogenomics section in Frontiers in Genetics: Past discoveries and Future Perspectives.

The Frontiers Media family has over 200 journals, which are each headed by usually one Field Chief Editor, and several thousand specialty sections, which are each headed by one or more Specialty Chief Editors. The year 2021 was the 10th anniversary of the founding of the Frontiers in Genetics journal and the Frontiers in Toxicogenomics specialty section of this journal. In 2021, we also announce one of the newest of the Frontiers journals–Frontiers in Toxicology which is part of the Frontiers Media family of journals but independent of Frontiers in Genetics. Dr. Ruden is the founding, and currently sole, Specialty Chief Editor of Frontiers in Toxicogenomics and one of 9 Specialty Chief Editors of Frontiers in Toxicology. As of 2021, Frontiers in Toxicogenomics has published over 138 articles and has over 370 Editors including 90 Associate Editors and 280 Review Editors. The Frontiers in Genetics impact factor was initially approximately 2.5 when it was first listed in PubMed in 2015 and has risen steadily to its current value of 4.8, which is typical for the majority of the over 200 Frontiers journals that have established impact factors. In this overview of the first decade of Frontiers in Toxicogenomics, we discuss the top 5 articles with the highest Scopus citations, which were all written in the first few years of the journal. The article with the highest number of citations, with 353 Scopus over 600 Google Scholar citations, and the highest average number of citations (67) that steadily increased from 10 citations in 2013 to 119 citations in 2021, was written in 2012 by Dr. Ruden’s laboratory and titled, “Using Drosophila melanogaster as a model for genotoxic chemical mutational studies with a new program, SnpSift.” The five most influential authors who published in the journal in the past 10 years based on Scopus citations of a particular paper are Dr. Ruden’s laboratory, with 353 Scopus citations for the SnpSift paper mentioned above; Drs. Brock Christensen and Carmen J. Marsit, with 86 Scopus citations for their review, “Epigenomics in environmental health”; Dr. Michael Aschner and colleagues, with 61 Scopus citations for their paper “Genetic factors and manganese-induced neurotoxicity”; and Dr. Sandra C. dos Santos and colleagues, with 59 Scopus citations for their paper, “Yeast toxicogenomics: genome-wide responses to chemical stresses with impact in environmental health, pharmacology, and biotechnology.” While the top 5 papers were published in the early years of the journal, we will also discuss a more recent article published in 2018 on a comparison of RNA-seq and microarray methods by Dr. Michael Liguori’s laboratory, “Comparison of RNA-Seq and Microarray Gene Expression Platforms for the Toxicogenomic Evaluation of Liver From Short-Term Rat Toxicity Studies,” that far exceeds the number of downloads and views of all the other articles published in the first 10 years of the journal and will likely be a top cited paper in the second decade highlights of this journal. Finally, we discuss where the Frontiers in Toxicogenomics specialty journal and the Frontiers in Toxicology journal will go to advance the field of toxicogenomics, and more generally, toxicology, in the future.

Harnessing hyaluronic acid for the treatment of osteoarthritis: A bibliometric analysis.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease which usually occurs in middle-aged and elderly people. Hyaluronic acid (HA) has been widely used to treat OA and related researches on the efficacy and safety of HA in the treatment of OA have been published. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to investigate the subject characteristics of harnessing HA for the treatment of OA and to analyse the relevant trends and hotspots by using a bibliometric approach. Methods: The articles published from 1 January 2002 to 31 December 2021 were searched in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) and the relevant information of HA for the treatment of OA was extracted after screening. Then, a total of 2438 publications were analysed by using Microsoft Excel, CiteSpace 5.8.R3, VOSviewer 1.6.18 and the Online Analysis Platform of Literature Metrology (http://bibliometric.com/). Results: A total of 2438 articles were finally included for analysis. The number of publications increased year by year. A total of 83 coutries and 3319 institutions published 2438 manuscripts in the field of use HA for the treatment of OA. The most productive country was United States with total 689 publications and League of European Research Universities Leru (Belgium) was the leading institution with total 126 publicatios. In terms of authors, the most prominent author was KrausVB, who published 28 papers with the highest H-index (19). In addition, Osteoarthritis and Cartilage had the highest number of publications (152 articles) and the highest number of citations (6450 citations). The co-cited references analysis indicated that the article published by McAlindon in 2014 had the most highest number of citations (91co-citations). What’s more, most research hotspots focused on the efficacy and safety of HA, and regenerative medicine researches such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have attracted more and more attentions of researchers. Conclusion: This study visually analyzed the historical evolution and future trends of HA for the treatment of OA, and discussed the research priorities. At present, there are still different views on the efficacy of HA for the treatment of OA. Gradually, research hotspots of this field have focused on the regenerative medicine.

Investigating the Research Trends on Strategic Ambidexterity, Agility, and Open Innovation in SMEs: Perceptions from Bibliometric Analysis

The unprecedented conditions of restrictive measures that were suddenly imposed in 2020 due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic affected business activity globally. To deal with the consequences that were caused by the pandemic, most SMEs had to adopt strategies which will enhance their development and footprint in the business arena. With this study, we aim to propose a theoretical approach, via bibliometric analysis, of a new business model innovation that will be based on the triple-win formula of strategic agility, ambidexterity, and open innovation. Open innovation can help SMEs develop their ambidexterity and agility capacity and become more efficient, which can contribute to gaining competitive advantage. To approach this issue, a bibliometric analysis was conducted based on 606 articles that were published in the timespan of 2008–2021. The bibliometric analysis used various indicators such as the scientific production in the studied field, h-Index, co-occurrence collaboration, Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA), keyword analysis, and thematic mapping. Biblioshiny and VOSviewer were used to process the data, and contributed to the visualization of the results. Of the 476 sources that were analyzed, most of the articles were published by Journal of Business Research; British scholars are those with the highest number of citations on the topic. This research provides insights related to the state of the art of the study area under analysis and highlights the gaps, which contributed to the building of a new business model innovation that will integrate not only ambidexterity and strategic agility, but open innovation, too. The new business model can help SMEs quickly adapt in the new business environment created by the past successive series of crises, such as the most recent financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic.
