“…Our study documents a gap in the proportion of female authorships within CNODES articles (36%) and the citing literature (29%) consistent with other STEMM literature showing a gender gap in productivity 26–28,31,53–56 . The increasing proportion of female authorships in many fields is often not proportional to the percentage increase of women in specific fields or academia, as a whole 31,54,57–60 .…”

“…Despite organizational commitments to increase gender equality, women remain underrepresented in many STEMM disciplines, particularly at senior positions, 1,[20][21][22][23][24][25] and may have lower productivity in some 19,[26][27][28][29] but not all STEMM disciplines. 7,30 In some studies, women have fewer single, first, or last author articles and fewer citations and tweets.…”

Purpose: The Canadian Network for Observational Drug Effect Studies (CNODES) studies the benefits and risks of post-market drugs and evaluates its research mobilization efforts for accountability, demonstrating value, and learning. As part of these evaluation efforts, and acknowledging gender disparity in authorship across many academic disciplines, CNODES examined the relationship between gender and authorship in its own journal articles and the literature citing them.Methods: CNODES articles (published 2012-2017) and all citing articles were identified and extracted using Scopus. Scopus author IDs were used to extract full names and a web service (www.genderapi.com) was used to estimate gender, converting all probabilities <80% to "indeterminate." T-tests and visualizations were used to compare the proportion of females between CNODES and the citing literature.Results: Twenty-eight CNODES articles and 463 citing articles were identified.

“…The female first- and last-authored journal article share increase in all 46 categories 1996–2018 confirms on a systematic level increases found in many previous studies of medical journals or specialisms [19,20,35-39]. The lower rate of increase for female last authors similarly provides a systematic confirmation of previous studies with a more limited scope [20,35,37,38], although two studies had partly conflicting findings [18,40].…”

Female under-representation continues in senior roles within academic medicine, potentially influenced by a perception that female research has less citation impact. This article provides systematic evidence of (a) female participation rates from the perspective of published journal articles in 46 Scopus medical subject categories 1996–2018 and (b) gender differences in citation rates 1996–2014. The results show female proportion increases 1996–2018 in all fields and a female majority of first-authored articles in two-fifths of categories, but substantial differences between fields. A paper is 7.3 times more likely to have a female first author in Obstetrics and Gynaecology than in Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine. Only three fields had a female last author majority by 2018, a probable side effect of ongoing problems with appointing female leaders. Female first-authored research tended to be more cited than male first-authored research in most fields (59%), although with a maximum difference of only 5.1% (log-transformed normalised citations). In contrast, male last-authored research tends to be more cited than female last-authored research, perhaps due to cases where a senior male has attracted substantial funding for a project. These differences increase if team sizes are not accounted for in the calculations. Since female first-authored research is cited slightly more than male first-authored research, properly analysed bibliometric data considering career gaps should not disadvantage female candidates for senior roles.

“…The second approach is through the use of bibliometrics, which is an analytical and mapping method to quantitatively assess the linkages and impact of published articles and citations [ 7 ]. This is useful for gaining an overview of the status and trends in a journal [ 8 ], research field [ 9 ], country [ 10 ] or even globally [ 11 ]. It also enables the identification of influential authors [ 12 ] and publications [ 13 ] through the analysis of citation.…”

Bibliometric analysis is a well-established approach to quantitatively assess scholarly productivity. However, there have been few assessments of research productivity on systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to date. The aim of this study was to analyze global research productivity through original articles published in journals indexed by the Web of Science from 1971 to 2020. Bibliometric data was obtained from the Science Citation Index Expanded in the Web of Science Core Collection database. Only original articles published between 1971 and 2020 on SLE were included in the analysis. Over the 50-year period, publication production in SLE research has steadily increased with a mean annual growth rate of 8.0%. A total of 44,967 articles published in 3435 different journals were identified. The journal Lupus published the largest number of articles (n = 3371; 8.0%). A total of 148 countries and regions contributed to the articles. The global productivity ranking was led by the United States (n = 11,244, 25.0%), followed by China (n = 4893, 10.9%). A three-field plot showed that the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation and the Johns Hopkins University together contributed 18.5% of all articles from the United States. A co-occurrence network analysis revealed five highly connected clusters of SLE research. In conclusion, this bibliometric analysis provided a comprehensive overview of the status of SLE research, which could enable a better understanding of the development in this field in the past 50 years.

A bibliometric analysis assessing temporal changes in publication and authorship characteristics in The Knee from 1996 to 2016

Abstract: The findings indicate that there have been changes in publication and authorship characteristics in this sub-speciality orthopaedic journal during the past 20years. This provides encouraging indication of greater diversification and internationalisation of orthopaedic research.
