“…This indicates that new knowledge rapidly replaces old knowledge and is frequently used. [38][39][40][41] Berlinberg et al [40] stated in their study that the authors sent their studies to journals with high impact factors and that the number of citations in these journals was high. Similar to this study, in our study, the number of citations of the studies published in Q1 journals was found to be higher.…”

In our study, the 100 most cited publications in the field of “Infectious Diseases” in the WOS database were evaluated bibliometrically. “Web of Science” database “advanced mode” feature was used. A search was made in the field of “Infectious Diseases.” The top 100 most cited publications were determined. The total number of citations of the publications, the annual number of citations, the authors, the information of the study and the journal were analyzed. There were a total of 552,828 publications in the field of “Infectious Diseases” in the WOS between 1975 and 2023. The total citation average of the 100 most cited publications was 2246.02 ± 2165.35 and the annual citation average was 208.04 ± 215.00. The first 3 subjects in the first hundred articles were listed as antibiotic resistance (21%), coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (17%) and gram positive agents (10%). The first 3 journals in which the studies were published the most were determined as “Clinical Infectious Diseases” (33%), “Lancet Infectious Diseases” (20%), and “Emerging Infectious Diseases” (9%). A significant relationship was found between the subject of the study, the quarter (Q) category of the journal, the continent of authors and publisher, the funding status, the year of publication, the open access status and the number of citations per year (P < .0001). Our study is the first to analyze the top 100 most cited studies in the field of “Infectious Diseases” in the literature and their citation characteristics. Most of the most cited studies on the subject were on antibiotic resistance. The study subject, author, journal, publisher and publication access features, funding status and publication year affect the number of citations per year.

“…These findings are not surprising, given that these factors have previously been shown to influence the AAS, social media attention, and citation rate an article receives. 4,15,17,31 It is plausible that with more institutions contributing to an article there are more resources to share a particular article published from their institution, whereas epidemiological studies are useful for hypothesis generation and therefore could be highly shared. Disclosing a conflict of interest, although critical in providing transparency, may cause hesitancy by readers regarding their willingness to promote or share an article.…”

Open Access Articles Garner Increased Social Media Attention and Citation Rates Compared With Subscription Access Research Articles: An Altmetrics-Based Analysis

et al. 2022

Background: To better understand the research impact on social media, alternative web-based metrics (Altmetrics) were developed. Open access (OA) publishing, which allows for widespread distribution of scientific content, has become increasingly common in the medical literature. However, the relationship between OA publishing and social media impact remains unclear. Purpose: To compare social media attention and citation rates between OA and subscription access (SA) research articles within the orthopaedic and sports medicine literature. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Articles published as either OA or SA in 5 high-impact hybrid orthopaedic journals between January 2019 and December 2019 were analyzed. The primary outcome was the Altmetric Attention Score (AAS), a validated measure of social media attention. Secondary outcomes included citation rates, article characteristics, and the number of shares on social media. Independent t tests and chi-square analyses were used to compare outcomes between OA and SA articles. A multivariable linear regression analysis was performed to determine the association between article type and AAS while controlling for bibliometric characteristics. Results: A total of 2143 articles (246 OA articles, 11.5%; 1897 SA articles, 88.5%) were included. The mean AAS among all OA articles was 62.4 ± 184.6 (range, 0-2032), whereas the mean AAS among all SA articles was 18.4 ± 109.8 (range, 0-3425), representing a statistically significant difference ( P < .001). The mean citation rate among OA articles was significantly higher (17.0 ± 22.5; range, 0-139) than that of SA articles (8.6 ± 13.4; range, 0-169) ( P < .001). Multivariable linear regression analysis demonstrated that OA status (β = 15.15; P = .044), number of institutions (β = 2.13; P = .023), studies classified as epidemiological investigations (β = 107.40; P < .001), and disclosure of a conflict of interest (β = −11.18; P = .032) were significantly associated with a higher AAS. Conclusion: OA articles resulted in significantly greater AAS and citations in comparison with SA articles. Articles published through the OA option in hybrid journals as well as those with a higher number of institutions, those that disclosed a conflict of interest, and those classified as epidemiological investigations were positively associated with greater AAS in addition to a greater number of citations. The potential for more extensive research dissemination inherent in the OA option may therefore translate into greater reach and social media attention.

“…Among the various B/P studies, a dozen or so were mainly aimed at investigating the pain literature through citation analysis as indicated in their titles ("Top-cited articles in …" or "Most frequently cited papers in …"). Two studies considered all papers in the pain-related literature (16,47); others were restricted to literatures of specific pain such as fibromyalgia (76,91), neuropathic pain (116), back pain (58,61), postoperative hyperalgesia (122), headache (68,120) trigeminal pain (72); and one study combined the literatures of pain and depression (84).…”

“…Although most of the citation studies were similarly arranged; that is, by the distribution of the top-cited papers over journals, countries and/or institutions, some studies were limited to brief descriptions (16,58,61,72,76,84), while others were more comprehensive in either discussing their findings (47,105,133,137,141,200), integrating their results with Altmetric analysis (91), or using existing methods such as PageRank and HITS (Hyperlink-induced topic search, see http://pi.math.cornell.edu/ ∼mec/Winter2009/RalucaRemus/Lecture4/lecture4.html) to augment citation analysis in the PubMed database (184).…”

During the last decades, the emergence of Bibliometrics and the progress in Pain research have led to a proliferation of bibliometric studies on the medical and scientific literature of pain (B/P). This study charts the evolution of the B/P literature published during the last 30 years. Using various searching techniques, 189 B/P studies published from 1993 to August 2022 were collected for analysis—half were published since 2018. Most of the selected B/P publications use classic bibliometric analysis of Pain in toto, while some focus on specific types of Pain with Headache/Migraine, Low Back Pain, Chronic Pain, and Cancer Pain dominating. Each study is characterized by the origin (geographical, economical, institutional, …) and the medical/scientific context over a specified time span to provide a detailed landscape of the Pain research literature. Some B/P studies have been developed to pinpoint difficulties in appropriately identifying the Pain literature or to highlight some general publishing pitfalls. Having observed that most of the recent B/P studies have integrated newly emergent software visualization tools (SVTs), we found an increase of anomalies and suggest that readers exercise caution when interpreting results in the B/P literature details.
