Analysis of the characteristics of retracted scientific papers in the field of global liver diseases published by Chinese scholars

Objective: To analyze the characteristics of scientific papers in the field of global liver diseases published by Chinese scholars that were retracted for diverse reasons from the Retraction Watch database, so as to provide a reference to publishing-related papers. Methods: The Retraction Watch database was retrieved for retracted papers in the field of global liver disease published by Chinese scholars from March 1, 2008 to January 28, 2021. The regional distribution, source journals, reasons for retraction, publication and retraction times, and others were analyzed. Results: A total of 101 retracted papers that were distributed across 21 provinces/cities were retrieved. Zhejiang area (n = 17) had the most retracted papers, followed by Shanghai (n = 14), and Beijing (n = 11). The vast majority were research papers (n = 95). The journal PLoS One had the highest number of retracted papers. In terms of time distribution, 2019 (n = 36) had the most retracted papers. 23 papers, accounting for 8.3% of all retractions, were retracted owing to journal or publisher concerns. Liver cancer (34%), liver transplantation (16%), hepatitis (14%), and others were the main areas of retracted papers. Conclusion: Chinese scholars have a large number of retracted articles in the field of global liver diseases. A journal or publisher chooses to retract a manuscript after investigating and discovering more flawed problems, which, however, require further support, revision, and supervision from the editorial and academic circles.

How Did Research on Conservation Agriculture Evolve over the Years? A Bibliometric Analysis

Conservation agriculture has recently been a hot topic of agricultural research and has generated significant global interest. Conservation agriculture has three core principles: minimal soil disturbance, permanent soil cover, and crop rotations. The research on this topic has also witnessed a boom in recent years as the number of peer-reviewed literature on conservation agriculture is rising exponentially. This study critically examines all the peer-reviewed documents published on conservation agriculture from the 1990s to 2021 and indexed in the web of science core database. The search returned 3023 documents, which were then processed in the R-based bibliometric package for annual scientific production trend, source, author, document, citation, keyword analysis, and co-occurrence networking using VOSviewer. Our findings show remarkable growth in conservation agriculture research in recent times, although it witnessed a shortfall in 2021. Notably, 15 core source journals contribute the most to the field, while 8692 researchers have authored or co-authored at least a document on conservation agriculture. While the USA, India, and Australia are front runners in conservation agriculture research, the spread of the topic is worldwide.

A Bibliometric Analysis and Disruptive Innovation Evaluation for the Field of Energy Security

The field of energy security is an important, complex and evolving field with important implications at the international, national and regional levels. Considering that no scholars have conducted bibliometric studies on the current energy security field, the authors of this study chose to use a bibliometric approach to conduct a search on the Web of Science using “energy security” as the keyword, and they conducted a systematic review of 5236 papers published between 2005 and 2022 to determine the current status and development of research in the field of energy security by addressing the following six questions: (1) What are the characteristics of the types of literature in the field of energy security? (2) What are the annual publication and citation frequency trends in the field of energy security? (3) What is the distribution of source journals, countries/regions, institutions, scholars and topics in the field of energy security? (4) What are the research hotspots in the field of energy security in the recent development history? (5) What are the most influential studies and the most disruptive studies in the field of energy security? (6) What are the characteristics of the different levels of cooperation networks in the field of energy security? Finally, we concluded the following: (1) In terms of publication dynamics, the number of annual publications and the citation frequency in the field of energy security maintain an upward trend, with a large number of source journals and a wide range of topics. The number of countries, institutions and scholars involved in research in the field of energy security keeps increasing, but the cooperation is fragmented and geopolitical. (2) From the perspective of research themes, research in the field of energy security has both strong technical characteristics and is associated with social science research themes. The contradictions between energy security and social, economic, environmental, land and climate issues, the interplay between energy supply systems and complex geopolitical and international relations issues and the important role of renewable energy and related technologies in maintaining national/regional energy security are the main issues of concern to researchers. (3) In terms of research centers, although the UK and the US still retain a first-mover advantage in this field, China has gradually overtaken and has become the country with the largest output of literature in recent years. The center of research in the field has also gradually shifted from Europe and the US to the East and South Asia regions. Overall, the governance of energy security issues still requires a combination of policy, economic and technological aspects. The results will help scholars systematically understand the current status of research, research frontiers and future trends in the field of energy security.

The top 100 most cited papers in insomnia: A bibliometric analysis.

The number of citations to a paper represents the weight of that work in a particular area of interest. Several highly cited papers are listed in the bibliometric analysis. This study aimed to identify and analyze the 100 most cited papers in insomnia research that might appeal to researchers and clinicians. We reviewed the Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection database to identify articles from 1985 to 24 March 2022. The R bibliometric package was used to further analyze citation counts, authors, year of publication, source journal, geographical origin, subject, article type, and level of evidence. Word co-occurrence in 100 articles was visualized using VOS viewer software. A total of 44,654 manuscripts were searched on the Web of Science. Between 2001 and 2021, the top 100 influential manuscripts were published, with a total citation frequency of 38,463. The top countries and institutions contributing to the field were the U.S. and Duke University. Morin C.M. was the most productive author, ranking first in citations. Sleep had the highest number of manuscripts published in the top 100 (n = 31), followed by Sleep Medicine Reviews (n = 9). The most cited manuscript (Bastien et al., Sleep Medicine, 2001; 3,384 citations) reported clinical validation of the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) as a brief screening indicator for insomnia and as an outcome indicator for treatment studies. Co-occurrence analyses suggest that psychiatric disorders combined with insomnia and cognitive behavioral therapy remain future research trends. This study provides a detailed list of the most cited articles on insomnia. The analysis provides researchers and clinicians with a detailed overview of the most cited papers on insomnia over the past two decades. Notably, COVID-19, anxiety, depression, CBT, and sleep microstructure are potential areas of focus for future research.

Global Research Trends and Future Direction in Peripartum Cardiomyopathy: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a pregnancy-related myocardial disease. PPCM has a high morbidity and mortality rate, but neither partial nor complete recovery is highly probable. To analyze global scientific production and identify research hotspots related to PPCM. The keyword "peripartum cardiomyopathy" was used to retrieved articles from Scopus database. A total of 509 articles were extracted. We used Scopus database analysis report and VOSviewer (version 1.6.18) to analyze annual publication number, country, citation and H-index, authors, institution, source journal, reference, and research hotspot. The trend of annual publication numbers has increased significantly, with the United States leading the amounts of publication and H-index in PPCM study. Hilfiker-Kleiner, D. contributed the most publications and the most active institution was Medizinische Hochschule Hannover MHH. By employing an overlay visualization, we shed light on the evolving research emphases, wherein prominent topics such as "diagnostic imaging" and "practical guidelines" have emerged as major areas of focus in recent years. From 1971 to 2022, numbers of publications in PPCM research have increased gradually, and this trend is predicted to keep arising. Recent studies are becoming more focused on diagnostic imaging and practical guidelines. In the future, expanding global collaboration and conducting more in-depth studies are needed.
