A bibliometric analysis and typology of drug pricing policies across the globe.

Limited research exists on pricing policies from a bibliometric and visualization perspective, and there is a lack of understanding of their typology. This study aims to address these gaps in knowledge and provide a deeper understanding of the research topics and development trends in this field. A bibliometric study was conducted on drug pricing approaches in healthcare literature, published between 2000 and June 2023. The literature was identified through an extensive search of healthcare databases and was then classified based on the year of publication, research topics, corresponding authors, location of corresponding authors, and journal titles. The citation data analysis was conducted using Bibliometrix, which consisted of descriptive, geographical, and time-series analyses and visualization. Between 2000 and June 2023, 173 articles were disseminated across 98 distinct publication sources. During the analysis, we observed a significant and consistent rise in literature reports on drug pricing approaches in healthcare, especially in 2010. The research topics were distributed almost equally, discussing improvement or issues with drug pricing models and addressing drug pricing applications. Our analysis revealed that the top ten corresponding authors were responsible for 19% of the total articles, with those based in the United States being the most productive. Furthermore, the "Health Economics" journal ranked first among the top ten journals. These findings align with the overall publication trends of drug pricing methods reported in other fields. The current study offers a comprehensive overview of drug pricing techniques utilized in medicine through visualization and bibliometric techniques. Analysis of authors, journals, institutions, and countries could serve as a reference for new researchers and guide them differently. Researchers can also consider emerging trends when determining the focus of their studies.

Review about the history of thermal analysis in Hungary

AbstractThis review discusses the development of the Derivatograph in the 1950s and the history of thermal analysis in Hungary. This device was the first commercial simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) instrument of the world. It initiated the development of thermal analysis and its application possibilities in a wide range during the second half of the last century. As a result, very strong thermoanalytical schools were established in Hungary, and the first thermoanalytical journal in the world, i.e., the Journal of Thermal Analysis was started in 1969, which is still a leading journal in the field, now under the title of Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry. In addition, several periodicals and books were published in thermal analysis in Hungary. In the paper, the most important Hungarian thermal analysis-related associations, events, acknowledgements and awards are also mentioned, together with names of major Hungarian researchers in this field. Presently, beside the internationally acknowledged research groups and the JTAC, the flagship of the Hungarian thermal analysis is the Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry Conference (JTACC) series.

Methods to Enhance Accessibility of Japanese Medical Literature in English Journals.

To address the challenges of accurately citing Japanese medical literature in English journals, the essential guidelines "Citing Medicine" by the National Library of Medicine were reviewed, focusing on practical adjustments to enhance accessibility. Key proposals include the use of persistent identifiers (Digital Object Identifier, PubMed Identifier, and International Standard Book Number), proper citation of online content, and the inclusion of romanized Japanese article titles. The selection of accessible journal titles and the importance of consistency were also discussed to avoid confusion. Given the significant volume of Japanese medical literature, cross-lingual citation is critical for preventing the isolation of scientific discoveries. These proposals highlight the need for improved citation practices to make Japanese research activities more accessible to the global research community.

Is orthodontic research falling prey to obscure and predatory journals? A bibliometric study.

To evaluate where orthodontic research papers are published and to explore potential relationships between the journal of publication and the characteristics of the research study and authorship. An online literature search of seven research databases was undertakento identify orthodontic articles published in English language over a 12-month period (1 January-31 December 2022) (last search: 12 June 2023). Data extractedincluded journal, article, and author characteristics. Journallegitimacy was assessed using a ternary classification scheme including available blacklists and whitelists, cross-checking of indexing claims and history of sending unsolicited emails. The level of evidence (LOE) of all included studies was assessed using a modified Oxford LOE classification scale. Univariable and multivariable ordinal logistic regression analyses were performed to examine possible associations between the level of evidence, journal discipline, and authorship characteristics. A total of 753 studies, published by 246 unique journal titles, were included and further assessed. Nearly two-thirds of orthodontic papers were published in non-orthodontic journals (62.8%) and over half (55.6%) of the articles were published in open-access policy journals. About a fifth of the articles (21.2%) were published either in presumed predatory journals or in journals of uncertain legitimacy. Journal discipline was significantly associated with the level of evidence. Higher-quality orthodontic studies were more likely published in established orthodontic journals (likelihood ratio test P < .001). The identification and classification of predatory journals are challenging due to their covert nature. The majority of orthodontic articles were published in non-orthodontic journals. In addition, approximately one in five orthodontic studies were published in presumed predatory journals or in journals of uncertain legitimacy. Studies with higher levels of evidence were more likely to be published in established orthodontic journals.

Cultural and multicultural topics in Neuropsychology Journal titles from 2010-2020

Objective The values of a field are reflected in the science it publishes. The goal of this study was to present a historical analysis of the extent to which the field of clinical neuropsychology publishes journals with titles that address culture in the context of brain function and behavior between 2010 and 2020. Methods Titles from articles published in 13 neuropsychology journals from 2010–2020 were collected and coded with regard to culture and multicultural content. The aims of the study were to (1) determine how often cultural or multicultural topics were represented in journal titles, (2) determine if cultural or multicultural content in neuropsychology journal publication titles increased over time, and (3) to explore other neuropsychological content that was most and least likely to appear in publications pertaining to culture or multicultural issues. Results Results indicated that titles for publications in clinical neuropsychology journals with content relevant to cultural or multicultural neuropsychology represented 1.1% to 13.4% of titles across the 13 journals. The number of cultural/multicultural titles increased over time. The number of cultural/multicultural titles per journal was not significantly correlated with the journal impact factor. Normative data were addressed significantly more often in cultural/multicultural titles versus non-cultural/multicultural titles, whereas psychiatric issues were addressed significantly less often. Conclusions There are many actions that clinical neuropsychologists can take to increase the field’s attention to the effects of culture on brain function and behavior. It is vital to update our data from 2021 to the present, given the substantial increase in awareness of social justice issues that occurred since 2020.

Top 100 most‐cited scientific articles in regenerative endodontics 2019–2023: A bibliometric analysis

AbstractBackgroundBibliometric analysis is a critical indicator of the influence and relevance of scientific papers, whilst also highlighting key contributors and gaps in knowledge in a scientific field.ObjectivesTo update and analyse the 100 most‐cited papers in regenerative endodontics from 2019 to 2023.MethodsA search of the most‐cited recent papers focusing on regenerative endodontics using journals included in the category, ‘Dentistry, Oral Surgery &amp; Medicine’, in the Clarivate Web of Science database from 2019 to 2023 was performed. Three researchers conducted the study selection and data extraction. Data extraction included publication title and year, authors, number and mean number of citations, institution, country and continent, study design, journal title, keywords and research topic. Citation counts were also collected in Google Scholar and Scopus databases. Graphical bibliometric networks were created using VOSviewer software.ResultsThe number of citations of the 100 most‐cited articles ranged from 6 to 85. Most were published in 2020 (n = 48), principally in the Journal of Endodontics (47%), followed by International Endodontic Journal (13%), Journal of Dental Research (6%) and Dental Materials (6%). Laboratory study was the most common study design amongst the included papers (n = 47), followed by narrative reviews (n = 17) and observational studies (n = 16). The most frequent first author on the top three most‐cited papers was Hacer Aksel, whilst Adham A. Azim (n = 6; 89 citations) contributed most to the top 100 articles. The institution from which most articles originated was the University of Hong Kong (China) (n = 5; 81 citations), whereas the corresponding authors were predominantly from the United States of America (USA) (n = 31; 560 citations). The VOSviewer map of co‐authorship demonstrated research collaborative clusters. ‘Regenerative endodontics’ and ‘stem‐cells’ were the most employed keywords (37 and 36 occurrences respectively).DiscussionThe current study was designed not only to showcase the most influential papers in regenerative endodontics since 2019 but also to provide a better understanding of global research in this area over the last five years.ConclusionsThis bibliometric analysis highlighted papers, authors, institutions and keywords in regenerative endodontics. The 100 most‐cited papers primarily consisted of laboratory studies published in the USA, focusing on evaluating biomaterials and scaffold design strategies in contact with stem cells. Clinical studies and systematic reviews representing higher levels of scientific evidence are currently not the most influential in the regenerative endodontic field.

Global scholarly output on orthodontic temporary anchorage devices (TADs): A silver jublee scientometric analysis.

This study aimed to analyze the global scholarly production of articles related to temporary anchorage devices (TADs) from 1998-2023 in peer-reviewed dental journals indexed in the Web of Science. Adatabase of TADs-related articles was created via aWeb of Sciences structured search. The bibliometric characteristics of the studies, including the number of citations, publication year, journal title, journal impact factor (IF), authorship, contributing institutions and countries, thematic field, and study design, were extracted. Keyword co-occurrence network analyses and the correlation between the number of citations and the article age, journal IF, and journal quartile of each article were performed. The top50 cited articles were published from 1999-2016, and the total number of citations ranged from 82-602, with 160.36 citations/paper on average. Most of the articles originated from Japan (n = 12), with the most remarkable contributions from Nihon and Okayama Universities, Japan (n = 5, each). The American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics had the most cited articles, with 196.57 citations/paper on average. Asignificant positive correlation occurred between the number of citations and publication age (rho = 0.392, P = 0.005). Our scientometric analysis reported the characteristics of TADs-related articles published over 25years. Most highly-cited articles were published between 2005 and 2008. The positive correlation between articles' publication date and the number of citations might impact the top50 within the next 5-10years.

Enhancing bibliographic reference parsing with contrastive learning and prompt learning

Bibliographic references, typically comprising author names, journal titles, paper titles, and publication dates, play a vital role in academic research. Accurately identifying these structured pieces of information from references is a crucial step in developing intelligent bibliographic management systems. However, existing methods often rely on extensive high-quality training data. To mitigate the reliance on extensive training data, we propose a method that integrates prompt learning and contrastive learning for extracting structured information from bibliographic references, named CONT_Prompt_ParseRef. This approach aims to utilize contrastive learning to deepen the understanding of different metadata label types and employ prompt learning to provide specific guidelines for processing and recognition. We constructed a dataset comprising 12,000 samples, available in both Chinese and English versions. The experimental results on this bilingual dataset demonstrate the model's superior performance over existing techniques. Notably, CONT_Prompt_ParseRef shows remarkable robustness in low-resource environments, particularly in scenarios with limited training data, both contrastive and prompt learning play pivotal roles in label extraction from bibliographic references. The ablation study illustrates that omitting either component leads to a decline in performance, with contrastive learning being slightly more influential.

Unlocking the hidden realms: analysing the Ukrainian journal landscape with Ulrichsweb

AbstractAlthough Ukraine is one of the leading countries in Central and Eastern Europe in terms of its number of scholarly journals, most of these journals are not widely recognized by the scientific community. This paper presents an in‐depth analysis of scholarly journal publishing in Ukraine, using data from the Ulrichsweb Global Serials Directory. The study aims to provide insights into the quantity and characteristics of Ukrainian journals, with a specific focus on historical context, publisher diversity, language of publication, and subject distribution. The findings reveal that Ulrichsweb encompasses details on over 1,500 active Ukrainian journal titles, some tracing their origins back to the 19th century. Notably, 85% of these journals are disseminated by academic institutions, including universities and research organizations. This study exemplifies the utility of Ulrichsweb as a valuable tool for investigating national scholarly journals underrepresented in other databases.

Grandparenting children with disabilities: An introductory review with focus on theories and measurements

The research on the experiences of grandparents involved in caring for children with disabilities is a neglected area in empirical studies. Using a survey design, titles of articles from national and international journals, books, and databases were collected in the fields of family science, gerontology, and disability studies. Out of 165 references available to the author until December 2023, 82 entries were reviewed by analyzing aspects such as format, timelines, journal titles, and themes that resulted in the identification of 20 relevant research articles primarly focusing on theories and measuremen. Grandparents were found to face unique challenges such as emotional stress, isolation, lack of peer support, the demanding nature of caregiving, and concerns about the future of their grandchildren with disabilities. Financial burdens for medical expenses, therapies, and special education services were other areas of concern. Issues like intergenerational conflicts, language barriers in multicultural settings, transportation difficulties, and toxic grandparenting are also highlighted. The study revealed a scarcity of information on grandparenting theories and measurement tools across different cultures and time periods. It calls for researchers to reassess, revise, and update existing theories, paradigms, models, tools, and measurements to adapt to the evolving landscape of caregiving for children with disabilities in the digital era.

COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy among Malawians: a scoping review

BackgroundThe best chance of eradicating the COVID-19 pandemic lies in a successful vaccination campaign against the virus. There is still hesitancy among some of the Malawians over the use of COVID-19 vaccines that are readily available. This review’s objective was to currently analyze COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy among Malawians.MethodsThis scoping review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) extension for Scoping Reviews. An electronic database search was performed using CINAHL, OVID Medline, PubMed, and Google Scholar for studies published between January 1, 2020, and July 10, 2023, on the topic of reluctance toward COVID-19 vaccine in Malawi. A review of the journal titles and abstracts was performed to establish a match within the selection criteria. Based on the parameters of interest, this paper included publications that explicitly mentioned COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in Malawi.ResultsA total of seven articles were identified as meeting the inclusion criteria. Some of the eligible Malawian population’s poor response to COVID-19 vaccination was due to hesitancy. Misinformation is primarily to blame for COVID-19 vaccine reluctance. COVID-19 vaccines are viewed as dangerous or intended to cause harm such as the myth that the COVID-19 vaccine would cause infertility, severe disability, and even death. The review revealed that some people choose not to receive vaccines due to religious convictions and beliefs. Some individuals also think that getting the COVID-19 vaccine could result in receiving a triple-six (666) mark from the devil. There were also reports that the COVID-19 vaccination is being considered experimental and ineffective.ConclusionsThe Malawi government should focus on fear and misinformation regarding COVID-19 vaccination campaigns, using interventions, motivational interviews, and individual sensitization. Traditional, religious, and youth-led organizations should provide practical information on COVID-19 vaccine safety and efficacy.

Implementing Creative Approaches within Google Scholar’s Advanced Search Interface to Retrieve Higher Likelihood for Journal Articles: A Quantitative Study into Google Scholar’s Lack of Format Limiters

This quantitative study seeks out creative approaches (CA) to solve some of Google Scholar’s shortcomings, notably a lack of clear database controls for resource format selection, along with an absence of a peer-reviewed button. As the primary endeavor, the research proposal targets three (theology-specific) research questions at Google Scholar to discover if certain techniques bring back a higher likelihood of journal articles. As a secondary concern, do the same approaches help readers identify peer-reviewed articles? In its findings, the CAs impacted the overall research questions differently. As intended, CA-3A and CA-3B both removed capstone papers from the search results; however, CA-3B cut too many journal articles, whereas CA-3A only reduced journal formats marginally. Successfully, all three variations of CA-4 deducted some book titles without affecting the journal formats; CA-4A performed the most helpful in both outcomes. For CA-5, it labeled journal articles with high precision, though not systematically. CA-5 also reflected the only approach of any value to assist detecting a peer-reviewed journal title. Lastly, all three CA-6 approaches considerably reduced the size of the search results. Notably, CA-6B aggressively removed book formats, while not inadvertently throwing out journal articles. Key terms: Academic dissertations; academic librarianship; book format; Boolean searching; comparative studies; database searching; Google Scholar; information retrieval

Country names in journal titles: shaping researchers’ perception of journals quality

Numerous academic journals incorporate geographic names, including countries and regions, in their titles. This practice is not uniform, as some journals opt to internationalise by omitting these affiliations. To gauge the impact of country names in journal titles on researchers' perceptions of journal quality, 408 researchers in sociology, psychology, environmental sciences, and physical chemistry in Brazil, Canada, Germany, Malaysia, Nigeria, and the USA were surveyed. The study reveals that most researchers believe that a journal's association with a specific country influences their perception of its quality (74.6%) and international readership (76.8%). Consequently, researchers tend to avoid journals with country-specific titles, suspecting limited readership or a predominant focus on papers from that country. However, exceptions exist, primarily in terms of perception, especially for American journals, which are often perceived as indistinguishable from mainstream international journals. Disciplinary variations emerge, with subject matter influencing perceptions. Subjects such as sociology, closely tied to local and national issues, exhibit a more (compared to e.g., chemistry) significant tendency toward recognising national journals. The inclusion of the term "international" in journal titles elicits mixed opinions, with some associating it with low quality or predatory journals, a perception that stems from the proliferation of predatory journals in some Asian and African countries. This study offers insight into researchers’ preferences and underscores the important role of journal titles in shaping researchers' perceptions of journals’ scope, quality and readership. In a challenging metric-driven research and publishing landscape, it is important to strike a balance between internationalisation and fostering diversity in scholarly journal publishing.

Linguistic Characteristics of Research Article Titles in National and International ELT Journals

Researchers have extensively studied the linguistic characteristics of research article (RA) titles. However, no research has investigated RA titles viewed from research design types published in national and international English Language Teaching (ELT) journals. Thus, the present study aims to fill this gap by investigating the average word length, syntactic structure, and syntactic structure type based on research design. This study used a comparative mixed method design to analyze 120 RA titles published in 2022-2023. The average length of titles was analyzed by counting the parts of speech of the tiles, the syntactic structures of titles were analyzed using the Framework of Cheng et al. (2012), and syntactic structure types based on research design were analyzed by reading the method section of the articles. Results indicate that the average length of the RA titles was 12 words in national journals and 13 words in international journals. Nominal structure was the most used RA title type in national journals, while compound structure was the most used in international journals. Furthermore, the nominal structure was often used for experimental design in international journals, while it was often used for descriptive study design in national journals. The compound and Verb-ing phrase structures were often used for case study design in both international and national journals. In conclusion, there are important differences and similarities in RA title characteristics between the two groups of ELT journal rankings. The findings contribute to the scholarship on the contrastive aspect of titling practices in English for Publishing Purposes.

Business faculty publications, a local citation analysis: 2019 – 2020

To determine whether the Angelo Bruno Business Library was meeting the needs of business faculty in the College of Business (COB) at The University of Alabama, and to measure the frequency of publishing via Open Access (OA) journals, a comprehensive citation analysis of business faculty (tenured/tenure-track/non-tenure track/clinical/instructor/etc.) publications was conducted for the years 2019 - 2020. There are other reasons, as well, for considering the exercise of a citation analysis. The following data were collected from Scopus: all citations from works listed by each faculty member per the COB Faculty and Staff Directory (each department in the COB was included), title of reference, authors, year of publication, source title, volume/issue, and publication type. The results were analyzed collectively as well as for each department. This study also determined how often OA journal titles were chosen as the outlet for publication. Only 24% of published works by COB authors during this time frame are OA. This research also revealed the dismal results that none of the 100 most-cited journals were OA. It is to libraries’ financial advantage that more authors use OA publishing for their works as well as their places for cited research.

Presence of Geographic Names, Title Length, and Title Changes

Journal titles serve as crucial indicators of journals’ scope and affiliation and influence researchers’ perceptions of journals’ quality. This study explores the prevalence of geographic names, title length, and changes among journals indexed in Scopus. Out of 23,702 active English-language journals, 14.7 per cent incorporate geographic entities in their titles, with country names (60.4 per cent) being the most common, followed by continents (20.9 per cent), cities or universities (10.2 per cent), and regions (8.5 per cent). Approximately 12.3 per cent of these journals have undergone title changes, with a notable 40 per cent decrease in geographic name usage post-change. Alterations include broadening or removing geographic identifiers, language shifts to English, and adding the word international. On average, titles consist of 31 characters, often shortening after the removal of geographic identifiers. This research highlights the dynamic nature of journal titles in reflecting evolving trends in focus, language, and internationalization.
