“…This growth has also been observed in other pediatric areas, such as in preterm births, where the annual number of publications increased significantly, by 443%, in 2016 compared to in 1997 [23]. In maternal mortality, the annual number of studies related to this topic increased from 87 in 1994 to 397 in 2013 [24], and a similar tendency has been observed in childhood epilepsy [25].…”

(1) Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyze scientific production, collaboration among countries, and research topics focusing on pediatric obesity. (2) Methods: The papers that were included in the study were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection from Clarivate Analytics. A bibliometric analysis of several focuses, including journals of publication, subject categories, most frequent author keywords, and journal impact factors, was conducted. Social network analysis was used to recognize collaboration groups between countries and the co-occurrences of author keywords. (3) Results: A total of 12,171 research articles were published in 2036 journals classified under a variety of subject areas, with pediatrics (27.7%), nutrition and dietetics (18.5%), and public environmental and occupational health (18.4%) accounting for the most frequent study areas, and Pediatric Obesity (309), the International Journal of Obesity (299), and BMC Public Health being the most productive journals. The main challenges identified for pediatric obesity include general topics such as physical activity, nutrition, diet, and prevention as well as other more specific challenges such as metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, eating behavior, and cardiovascular diseases. (4) Conclusions: We observed a growth rate in the number of published articles of 59.8%, which serves as evidence of the importance of the topic. The number of funded papers also doubled from 2010 to 2019. There has been significant global collaboration on the topic, with countries across five continents being involved. The results of the thematic analysis reveal the importance of exercise and nutrition-related topics along with specialized health terms and terms related to public health.

“…Most studies we found examined article, author, journal, and specialty trends in the literature and generated citation classics and top-100 lists, such as the sole bibliometric study of pediatric epilepsy by Kutluk and Danis, which was recently published. 4 Some bibliometric studies that go beyond just trend analysis, examining causations in productivity-for example, the association between degree type and subsequent publication output 24 or in the success of residency matches 25 -or in using bibliometric findings as a way to judge the success of academic programs. 26,28 In contrast to our study of the pediatric epilepsy literature, the study by Kutluk and Danis examined a shorter time period (1980-2018), which resulted in a smaller data set (N = 3424) compared with our data set (N = 6727).…”

Publications in Pediatric Epilepsy: Using Bibliometrics to Determine Readings in the Field

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Bibliometrics and citation analysis are popular forms of analyzing medical literature based on article impact as determined by the number of citations an article has received from other publications. Many bibliometric studies published within the past 10 years have assembled lists of highly cited papers, top 100 papers, or citation classics of specialties, subspecialties, and specific morbidities. For pediatric epilepsy, there is only 1 study that bibliometrically examines articles in this subspecialty. Although bibliometrics generally examines trends in the literature, we used bibliometrics as a methodology for determining a core set of pediatric epilepsy articles with the highest impact (ie, citation count) that could be used as an introductory reading list for residents, fellows, and early career epileptologists. Therefore, we searched Web of Science to identify the 100 top-cited pediatric epilepsy articles and develop 10 topic areas into which we sorted each article. These recommended articles could be used as essential readings for pediatric epilepsy.
