An Evaluation of the Role and Function of ‘Feuilleton’ in the Development of Journalism and Literature

Bu çalışma, gazetede yer alan fakat edebiyatın gelişmesinde de önemli bir role sahip olan tefrikanın işlevlerini ele almaktadır. 19. Yüzyıl, Batılılaşma hareketlerinin siyasî ve sosyal bakımdan hayatın içine girmeye başladığı bir dönemdir. Tanzimat Fermanı, Islahat Fermanı ve Meşrutiyet idaresinin kabulü gibi siyasî gelişmeler, zamanla kültür hayatı üzerinde de önemli etkilere sebep olmuştur. Gazete, bu etkiyi hızlandıran o devrenin en önemli kitle iletişim aracıdır. Roman, Batılı tarzda hikâye, tiyatro gibi Batılı türlerin Türk edebiyatına girişinde ve gelişmesinde gazeteciliğin önemli bir rolü vardır. Türk edebiyatının yeni türler ile değişim yaşamasında önemli bir vasıta rolü oynayan gazete, geniş insan yığınları üzerinde kültürel etkilere sahiptir. Uzun edebî metinlerin belli diziler hâlinde neşredilmesiyle ortaya çıkan tefrika, Türk gazeteciliğinde çok uzun süre etkisini sürdürmüştür. Tefrika, uzun edebî metinlerin gazetede görünmesini mümkün kılarak daha fazla insanın edebiyat ile tanışmasına zemin hazırlamıştır. Türk edebiyatında pek çok genç yazar, gazetelerdeki yazıları ile meşhur olmuştur. Bu yazılar ise genelde ‘tefrika’ ile gazetelerde kendine yer bulmuştur. Tefrika, gazetecilik bakımından kültürel ve edebî bir faaliyet olması, edebiyat açısından ise popüler edebiyat başta olmak üzere telif ve tercüme pek çok eserin okurla buluşması dolayısıyla okur – eser etkileşiminin temini ile edebî mahfilde hızla tekâmül etmiştir. Tefrika aynı zamanda müelliflerin kitap basım masraflarının da önüne geçmiştir. Bu yüzden tefrika, edebiyat ve gazetecilik arasında karşılıklı bir fayda ilişkisi inşa etmiş, fikir hayatının canlanmasına aracılık etmiştir.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Research Trends in Geopolymer.

Geopolymer is an inorganic material formed through the chemical reaction of an aluminosilicate precursor and an alkaline or acidic activating solution. It is seen as a green new alternative binder to ordinary Portland cement (OPC) for sustainable infrastructure development. The strength of the unary or blended geopolymer product is dependent on the composition and properties of the polymeric gel influenced by the ratios of Al2O3/SiO2, CaO/SiO2, CaO/(SiO2 + Al2O3), Na2SiO3/NaOH, SiO2/Na2O, and liquid/binder (L/B). Essential scientific inquiry has been progressively addressed by utilizing expert assessment and research metrics. The network visualization of bibliometric co-occurrence and co-citations is of particular significance. The present study aims to highlight the trends and progress of the most influential publication sources, keywords, authors, articles, and countries in geopolymer research in the last 10 years. Bibliometric data were retrieved through Scopus and visualized in VOSviewer to create bibliometric networks. The yearly distribution and growth trends (April 2011–2022) of geopolymer, geopolymer mortar, and geopolymer concrete before (after) applying inclusion criteria were from 754 to 9887 (5186), 47 to 1374 (866), and 145 to 3721 (2253), respectively, attributed to the discoveries in more precursor materials such as laterite and the growing interest in fire and heat-resistant structures, water and wastewater treatment, cement and concrete, and brick manufacturing. The top three journals in terms of prestige for geopolymer publications were the Journal of Hazardous Materials with an impact factor equal to 14.224 and h-index equal to 307, Cement and Concrete Research with an impact factor equal to 11.958 and h-index equal to 239, and the Journal of Cleaner Production with an impact factor equal to 11.072 and h-index equal to 232. The top three journals in terms of average citation per document were Cement and Concrete Research (135.75), Materials and Design (75), and Cement and Concrete Composites (68.35). Keywords such as “geopolymers”, “inorganic polymer”, “geopolymer”, “compressive strength”, “fly ash”, and “geopolymer concrete” had the highest occurrences in publications. John Provis—University of Sheffield, Prinya Chindaprasirt—Khon Kaen University, and Jay Sanjayan—Swinburne University of Technology had the highest total citations of 6377, 5626, and 4311, respectively. The highest number of publications were from China, India, Australia, the United States of America, and Malaysia. The bibliometric findings from this study can act as a tool for academicians and policymakers to exchange research expertise, collaborate on novel geopolymer research, and create innovative joint ventures.

Marginalizing Russian science. What to expect for Russian publishers and authors

No country in the world has yet surpassed Russia by imposed sanctions volume and their severity. One of the of the sanctions goals is the marginalization of Russian science. The joint international statement of organizations such as Clarivate and Harvard Kennedy School states that the exclusion of Russia will have little effect on global science, especially on the leading countries of the West, since “Russia’s science system is weak, deteriorating and increasingly marginalised.” How true this is, what risks it carries and how to level them off is demonstrated by dozens of examples in Russian authors and journals in terms of Academic SEO, internationalization and other indicators.

Charting variety, scope, and impact of open access diamond journals in various disciplines and regions: a survey-based observational study

Purpose: The variety, scope, and impact of open access (OA) diamond journals across disciplines and regions from July 22 to September 11, 2020 were charted to characterize the current OA diamond landscape.Methods: The total number of diamond journals was estimated, including those outside the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). The distribution across regions, disciplines, and publisher types was described. The scope of journals in terms of authorship and readership was investigated. Information was collected on linguistic diversity, journal dynamics and life cycle, and their visibility in scholarly databases.Results: The number of OA diamond journals is estimated to be 29,000. OA diamond journals are estimated to publish 356,000 articles per year. The OA diamond sector is diverse in terms of regions (45% in Europe, 25% in Latin America, 16% in Asia, and 5% in the United States/Canada) and disciplines (60% humanities and social sciences, 22% sciences, and 17% medicine). More than 70% of OA diamond journals are published by university-owned publishers, including university presses. The majority of OA diamond journals are small, publishing fewer than 25 articles a year. English (1,210), Spanish (492), and French (342) are the most common languages of the main texts. Out of 1,619 journals, 1,025 (63.3%) are indexed in DOAJ, 492 (30.4%) in Scopus, and 321 (19.8%) in Web of Science.Conclusion: The patterns and trends reported herein provide insights into the diversity and importance of the OA diamond journal landscape and the accompanying opportunities and challenges in supporting this publishing model.

Knowledge atlas of the involvement of glutamate and GABA in alcohol use disorder: A bibliometric and scientometric analysis.

IntroductionAbnormal neurotransmission of glutamate and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a key characteristic of alcohol-related disorders. To track research output, we conducted a bibliometric analysis to explore the current status and trends in this field over the past decades.MethodsStudies related to neurotransmitters and alcohol use disorder published in English from 2005–2021 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection and Scopus databases. The R–bibliometrix package was used for a descriptive analysis of the publications. Citespace, WOSviewer, and R–bibliometrix were used to construct networks of countries/institutions/authors based on co-authorship, co-citation analysis of cited references and co-occurrence as well as burst detection of keywords.ResultsA total of 4,250 unique articles and reviews were included in the final analysis. The annual growth rate of publications was 5.4%. The USA was the most productive country in this field, contributing nearly half of the total documents. The top ten most productive institutions were all located in the USA. The most frequent worldwide collaboration was between the USA and Italy. The most productive and influential institution was the University of California. The author contributing the most productions to this field was Marisa Roberto from the Scripps Research Institute. The top co-cited reference was a review titled “Neurocircuitry of addiction.” The top journal in terms of the number of records and citations was Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research. Comprehensive analyses have been conducted over past decades based on co-cited reference analysis, including modulators, transporters, receptor subtypes, and animal models. In recent years, the research frontiers have been shifting to the identification of risk factors/biomarkers, drug development for alcohol use disorder, and mechanisms related to alcoholic and non-alcoholic fatty liver.ConclusionOur bibliometric analysis shows that glutamate and GABA continue to be of interest in alcohol use disorder. The focus has evolved from mechanisms and medications related to glutamate and GABA in alcohol use disorder, to novel drug development, risk factor/biomarker identification targeting neurotransmitters, and the mechanisms of related diseases.

The Sensitivity of Research on COVID-19

Beall’s list heavily used as a base for selection of predatory journals by large no. of research studies was ceased from internet in 2017. Thus, status of journal declared as predatory in list is debatable. To verify quality of journals in terms of accuracy and standard of peer review, a sample of Medical Science journals from Beall list and indexed in reputed indexing/abstracting databases was taken. sample of journals was put to quality and credibility check by submitting a deliberately flawed research article. deliberate errors exceed an acceptable norm in submitted research paper. It is astonishing to see that majority of journals (61.96%) accept flawed article on such a sensitive issue, i.e., COVID-19 without peer review and desired revisions. Instant mails reporting paper's acceptance, preceded by multiple emails requesting for submission for Article processing fee, were received frequently. It is found that such publishing ventures are a scare story that only wants to generate as much revenue as possible.

The Role of Blood-Brain Barrier Dysfunction in Mild Cognitive Impairment: a Scientometric and Visualization Analysis from 2000 to 2021.

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a pathological stage between normal cognitive aging and dementia. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown is emerging as an early biomarker of MCI. This study aimed to visually analyze the literatures related to MCI caused by BBB dysfunction in recent 20years, systematically identify collaboration networks, track research trends, highlight current hot spots, and predict future frontiers in this field. The related literatures published from 2000 to 2021 were obtained from the Web of Science with the search term "mild cognitive impairment and (blood-brain barrier or neurovascular unit or neurovascular coupling)". VOSviewer software was used to present knowledge map, CiteSpace software was used to extract literature information and make tables, including the top most influential countries, authors, institutions, periodicals, keywords, and references. A total of 333 literatures were used for visual analysis. After 2013, the literatures in the field of BBB dysfunction-induced MCI showed an increased trend in terms of year of publication and quantity of material, with more than 40 publications published each year. USA, England, China, and Sweden cooperated closely. In terms of institutions, Harvard Med Sch ranked first in the number of papers published, followed by Mstricht Univ and Univ Washington. In terms of journals, three of the top five co-cited journals belonged to USA, the other two journals were Neurobiol Aging and J Alzheimers DIS, which were from England and Netherlands respectively. A total of 1752 authors were identified, with Abhay P Sagare the most published and Zlokovic BV the most cited. Keyword emergence detection analysis showed that inflammation, oxidative stress, and memory were new research hot spot in this field. Overall, the research on BBB dysfunction-induced MCI is booming. In the future, cooperation and communication between different countries and institutions should be strengthened.

Investigating individual differences with qualitative research methods: Results of a meta-analysis of leading applied linguistics journals

The aim of the present article is to provide a systematic review of qualitative studies in the leading journals of our field focusing on their distributional properties in the various journals as well as topic choice and selected quality control issues. In order to achieve this aim, we carried out a systematic review of research articles published in leading journals in our field, namely, Applied Linguistics, Language Learning, Language Teaching Research, Studies in Second Language Acquisition and Modern Language Journal between 2016 and 2020. Our sample contains 93 articles in which researchers employed qualitative research methods or mixed methods including a qualitative component. Our main results indicate that there is great variation among journals in terms of the number of qualitative studies. As for topic considerations, some traditional individual difference variables seem to have a dominant role, with cognitive processes involved in language acquisition gaining some ground as well. Concerning quality control issues, there could be room for improvement with regard to reporting the quality control measures, including the tools employed in the studies. Based on our results, we can conclude that a more systematic understanding of acceptable processes in the field of applied linguistics could increase not only the number of qualitative articles published but also their topical importance.

Knowledge Mapping of Multicriteria Decision Analysis in Healthcare: A Bibliometric Analysis.

ObjectiveMulticriteria decision analysis (MCDA) is a useful tool in complex decision-making situations, and has been used in medical fields to evaluate treatment options and drug selection. This study aims to provide valuable insights into MCDA in healthcare through examining the research focus of existing studies, major fields, major applications, most productive authors and countries, and most common journals in the domain.MethodsA bibliometric analysis was conducted on the publication related to MCDA in healthcare from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database on 14 July 2021. Three bibliometric software (VOSviewer, R-bibliometrix, and CiteSpace) were used to conduct the analysis including years, countries, institutes, authors, journals, co-citation references, and keywords.ResultsA total of 410 publications were identified with an average yearly growth rate of 32% (1999–2021), from 196 academic journals with 23,637 co-citation references by 871 institutions from 70 countries/regions. The United States was the most productive country (n = 80). Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (n = 16), Université de Montréal (n = 13), and Syreon Research Institute (n = 12) were the top productive institutions. A A Zaidan, Mireille Goetghebeur and Zoltan Kalo were the biggest nodes in every cluster of authors' networks. The top journals in terms of the number of articles (n = 17) and citations (n = 1,673) were Value in Health and Journal of Medical Systems, respectively. The extant literature has focused on four aspects, including the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), decision-making, health technology assessment, and healthcare waste management. COVID-19 and fuzzy TOPSIS received careful attention from MCDA applications recently. MCDA in big data, telemedicine, TOPSIS, and fuzzy AHP is well-developed and an important theme, which may be the trend in future research.ConclusionThis study uncovers a holistic picture of the performance of MCDA-related literature published in healthcare. MCDA has a broad application on different topics and would be helpful for practitioners, researchers, and decision-makers working in healthcare to advance the wheel of medical complex decision-making. It can be argued that the door is still open for improving the role of MCDA in healthcare, whether in its methodology (e.g., fuzzy TOPSIS) or application (e.g., telemedicine).

Scoping review of domestic and overseas hospital-based health technology assessment

This paper systematically sorted out the related research on hospital-based health technology assessment(HB-HTA) and clarified the research status of this field to provide a basis for the future research direction and focus of HTA in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) hospitals. Based on the scoping review, relevant research papers were retrieved from Chinese databases(including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and SinoMed) and PubMed and analyzed. Among the included 99 papers, the earliest one was published in 2005 in China, and the number of papers has been increasing since 2016. In terms of journals, the included papers were published in 39 journals, including 24 core ones and 2 SCI ones. In terms of the number of publications, the Chinese Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine accounted for the majority(n=6). Among the 175 authors involved, three of them published 15 papers, respectively, accounting for 20.83% and ranking the top, and they came from Renmin University of China and the National Health Commission of China. There were 38 first units dominated by hospitals. Hebei General Hospital published the most papers(n=10), followed by Renmin University of China(n=9) and the National Health Commission of China(n=7). In terms of research type, the research papers were dominated by evaluation and practice ones(n=29), followed by reviews(n=20). In terms of research topic, the research was mainly carried out from devices(n=26) and macro-perspective scope(n=24). Half of the research in China was funded. For 27 research papers published abroad, the number of publications in the past five years was small, with 16 countries involved. Developed countries paid more attention to this field than developing countries. Especially in Europe and the US, the publishing institutions were mainly universities, and the types of research were mainly interviews and evaluation or practice. In recent years, the attention of HB-HTA in China has been increasing year by year, and the development of related projects has provided a scientific decision-making basis for the admission and management of new technologies in hospitals in China. However, there are few researchers and institutions in this field, and the research scope is small. In the future, more investment is needed to encourage more hospitals, especially TCM hospitals, to carry out HB-HTA, explore the HB-HTA system suitable for Chinese conditions, and improve the scientific decision-making of hospitals.

Exploring Current Status and Evolutionary Trends on the Paid Use of State-Owned Forest Resources in China: A Bibliometric Perspective

State-owned forest resources occupy an important position in China, and the development of their paid use will help to improve the economic benefits of these resources. For this study, 451 journal documents involving the paid use of state-owned forest resources in the CNKI database of China from 2008 to 2021 were selected as samples. Combining qualitative reviews with quantitative analysis, statistical analysis software was used as an analytical tool. The knowledge maps can be visualized by cluster analysis, multidimensional scaling (MDS), and co-occurrence network analysis. The change laws of this research in the time dimension were obtained using developing trend analysis. The results are as follows: 1. The number of research documents on the paid use of state-owned forest resources is increasing. 2. The core authors account for 29.27%; the research impact is relatively scattered. 3. Research institutions are primarily colleges and universities. 4. The support of provincially funded projects accounts for the highest proportion. 5. There is a relatively stable number of journals in this research field. Forestry Economy, Green Science and Technology and China Forestry Economy are the top three journals in terms of citation impact. 6. The existing research topics mainly focus on the development status of paid use, forest tourism and forest health, and the under-forestry economy (under-forestry planting, breeding, and product processing). 7. The intermediary centralities of state-owned forest farms and under-forestry economy are the highest, followed by forest tourism and forest experience, etc. With time and the promulgation of policies, the research focus in this field has gradually shifted from forest assets and forestry economics to ecotourism and forest health, and research on forest carbon sequestration is a technical branch worthy of attention in the future.

Journal packing density of Library and Information Science journals published across Asia

The purpose of the study is to compute the Journal Packing Density (JPD) i.e. the average research articles published in each volume or each issue of a research journal. Library and Information Science (LIS) journals published across Asia and indexed in Scopus during the period 2015 to 2019 were taken as samples. The study is based on secondary data retrieved from SCImago Journal and Country Ranking (SJCR), which includes the journals and country scientific indicators developed from the information contained in the Scopus database. In all, 14 LIS journals were identified from Asia. It was found that there are 51 sovereign nations in Asia, and 43 (84.31%) countries are actively undertaking research in LIS and only 8 (18.60%) countries are publishing LIS journals. India and Taiwan are the two leading countries in the region publishing 3 journals each. In all, 1558 articles were published by 14 LIS journals across Asia from 2015 through 2019 in 58 volumes with a JPD of 26.86 articles per journal per volume. Apart from these, research deficit in terms of journals and research articles has also been computed alongside a brief overview on how JPD of a journal can help in identifying the possibility of its predatory nature.

Objectives: Bibliometrics is being used to assess the quantity and quality of scientific research output. This study is aimed to evaluate the worldwide research productivity in the field of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) use in osteoarthritis (OA) knee. Materials and Methods: Scopus and PubMed databases were searched to identify published articles on PRP and OA knee. The contributions of authors, countries, institutions, and collaborations across the world were analyzed. The top journals publishing in this field were analyzed for the citations and other parameters. Results: Total publications on this topic were 1309 in Scopus and 921 in PubMed, and the yearly average of publication numbers has seen a steady increase over the past 10 years. Top journal in terms of number of articles and citations was Arthroscopy and AJSM, respectively. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage published the maximum preclinical studies. Kon E emerges to be the leading author in both the databases. Original clinical research articles (15.31% and 22.15%) are less compared to review articles (34.6% and 28.3%) in both PubMed and Scopus, respectively. The largest number of articles in this field was from the USA and six of the top 10 productive universities were also from the USA. Conclusion: There has been a rapid increase in the scientific research productivity in the past 10 years and this topic has gained attention in the recent past. There is a need for more clinical trials in this field.

PSRMTE: Paper submission recommendation using mixtures of transformer

Nowadays, there has been a rapidly increasing number of scientific submissions in multiple research domains. A large number of journals have various acceptance rates, impact factors, and rankings in different publishers. It becomes time-consuming for many researchers to select the most suitable journal to submit their work with the highest acceptance rate. A paper submission recommendation system is more critical for the research community and publishers as it gives scientists another support to complete their submission conveniently. This paper investigates the submission recommendation system for two main research topics: computer science and applied mathematics. Unlike the previous works (Wang et al., 2018; Son et al., 2020) that extract TF–IDF and statistical features as well as utilize numerous machine learning algorithms (logistics regression and multiple perceptrons) for building the recommendation engine, we present an efficient paper submission recommendation algorithm by using different bidirectional transformer encoders and the Mixture of Transformer Encoders technique. We compare the performance between our methodology and other approaches by one dataset from Wang et al. (2018) with 14012 papers in computer science and another dataset collected by us with 223,782 articles in 178 Springer applied mathematics journals in terms of top K accuracy (K=1,3,5,10). The experimental results show that our proposed method extensively outperforms other state-of-the-art techniques with a significant margin in all top K accuracy for both two datasets. We publish all datasets collected and our implementation codes for further references.11https://github.com/BinhMisfit/PSRMTE.

Development of Public Administration Research with a Bibliometric Analysis

Recently, several studies adopted bibliometric methodology to estimate the development of the field of public administration (PA). However, only a small scope of journals was covered in their analyses. Few of those investigated the evolution of the entire field. To make a progress, this paper included a 19-year timespan, 53 journals, and more than 20,000 items for analysis in a bibliometric way. Both the activity and the quality indicators of research results were applied from the bibliometric perspective with 3-year and 5-year citation windows at three aggregation levels including journal, country, and institution by using publications in PA indexed in Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI). “Resident” journal is proposed as a new concept to explore differences between traditional and emerging research forces. The results suggest that resident journals maintain a large advantage over other journals in terms of higher quality journal indicators and citation impact indicators. Moreover, international and national collaboration shows a growth tendency, especially for the international type. The majority of active institutions are from the US and the UK, which indicates their dominant position over others. This study provides more comprehensive comparisons through large-scale data and acknowledged methods to explore the development of PA field research.
