Study Design. Bibliometric literature review.Objective. The aim of this study was to recognize and analyze the most frequently cited manuscripts published in the journal Spine. Summary of Background Data. Although the journal Spine is considered a premiere location for distributing influential spine research, no previous study has evaluated which of their publications have had the most impact. Knowledge and appreciation of the most influential Spine publications can guide and inspire future research endeavors. Methods. Using the Scopus database, the 100 most cited articles published in Spine were accessed. The frequency of citations, year of publication, country of origin, level-of-evidence (LOE), article type, and contributing authors/institutions were recorded. The 10 most cited articles (per year) from the past decade were also determined. Results. ''Guidelines For The Process Of Cross-Cultural Adaptation Of Self-Report Measures'' by Beaton DE was the most cited article with 2960 citations. 2000 to 2009 (n ¼ 46) was the most productive period. A LOE of III (n ¼ 35) followed by II (n ¼ 34) were the most common. Deyo RA (n ¼ 8), Bombardier C (n ¼ 6), and Waddell G (n ¼ 6) produced the most articles. University of Washington (n ¼ 8) and University of Toronto (n ¼ 8) ranked first for institutional output. Clinical Outcome (n ¼ 28) was the most recurring article topic. The United States (n ¼ 51) ranked first for country of origin. Conclusion.Using citation analysis as an objective proxy for influence, certain publications can be distinguished from others due to their lasting impact and recognition from peers. Of the top cited Spine publications, many pertained to clinical outcomes (28%) and had a LOE of I, II, or III (60%). Although older publications have had longer time to accrue citations, those in the most recent decade comprise this list almost 2:1. Knowledge of these ''classic'' publications allows for a better overall understanding of the diagnosis, management, and future direction of spine health care.

Whiplash injury is a common diagnosis and causes substantial economic burden. Numerous papers have been published to provide new insights into whiplash injury. However, so far there has not been a comprehensive analysis of the most influential publications on whiplash injury. This study aimed to determine the 100 most cited publications on whiplash injury and analyze their characteristics. A keyword search was conducted using the Web of Science database. The top 100 cited publications relevant to whiplash injury were gathered. The main characteristics including title, year of publication, citation, authorship, journal, country, institution, and topic were generated. The number of citations of the top 100 cited publications ranged from 82 to 777. Fifteen countries contributed the top 100 publications. Australia had the largest number of publications (26), followed by the United States (21), and Canada (12). The majority of the publications were from Europe (40) and North America (33). A total of 19 institutions and 17 authors published more than one publication. The University of Queensland (16) and the author Sterling M (7) had the leading publication record. This is the first citation analysis to identify and characterize the highest impact researches on whiplash injury. The present analysis provides the most influential studies on whiplash injury, and reveals the leading journals, counties, institutions, and authors with special contributions in this filed. The list may serve as an archive of historical development of whiplash injury and a basis for further research.

“…Although the number of citations is not the only surrogate for determining the quality of scholarly works, it provides valuable data to determine classics that have shaped medical practice, fostered new research ideas, and predicted emerging trends and hotspots. [5][6][7] Several citation analyses have been conducted regarding various medical specialties and subspecialties, including diabetes [8][9][10] and podiatric medicine. [11][12][13] While studies on the diabetic foot comprise over a quarter of the top-cited publications in the field of foot and ankle surgery, 12 only a single bibliometric review has specifically addressed DFU to date.…”

The aim of this study was to determine the top-cited articles in the field of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) research. A cross-sectional bibliometric analysis was conducted in January 2021 by using Boolean search terms in the Scopus and the Web of Science databases. The 50 top-cited articles that met the inclusion criteria were ranked and evaluated for several characteristics, including year of publication, country of origin, authorship, publishing journal, topic categories, publishing type, and level of evidence. The median number of citations per article in the list was 442 (interquartile range [IQR], 320-520), with a median of 21.8 citations (IQR, 16.5-34.5) per year since publication. The publication years ranged from 1986 to 2017, with 1998 accounting for the greatest number of studies ( n = 7). The citation classics were published in 20 journals and originated from institutions in 9 countries. The majority of the studies were clinical, of which expert opinion/review with Level V evidence and clinical studies with Levels I and II evidence comprised the greater proportion in the list. This study provides useful insights into the history and development of DFU research. The top-cited list may serve as a quick reference for education curriculums and clinical practice, in addition to providing a foundation for further studies on this topic.
