Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to conduct bibliometric analysis on orthognathic surgery in class III malocclusions, a frequently investigated topic in orthodontics.
Methods: The study analyzed all articles in the Web of Science database from March 1987 to June 2023 using VOSviewer software (version 1.6.14). Initially, all 1173 articles were analyzed in the Web of Science browser and later exported for further analysis in the VOSviewer program. The VOSviewer program was utilized to map relationship networks based on co-authorship, co-occurrence, citation, bibliographic coupling, or co-citation links. Additionally, the study examined the distribution of publications by year, analyzed articles related to keywords, identified authors with the most publications on these topics, and compiled the 10 most cited articles containing the words "orthognathic surgery" and "class III" in the title, abstract, and keywords using the Web of Science browser.
Results: The most publications on these topics were published in 2022. Seung-Hak Baek was the most cited author (413 citations). Chang Gung University ranked highest in terms of citations (729 citations) and had the most extensive publication record (60 articles) in the bibliometric network map. South Korea led in both article production (227 articles) and citation count (2587 citations).
Conclusions: Orthognathic surgery for class III malocclusion has gained significant attention over the years due to technological advancements and increasing aesthetic concerns among patients. The interest in this field is expected to grow, leading to more studies exploring related applications and topics.

Ortognatik Cerrahide Sınıf III Maloklüzyonlarının Bibliyometrik Analizi: 1987-2023

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, ortodontide sıklıkla araştırılan bir konu olan sınıf III maloklüzyonlarda ortognatik cerrahi üzerine bibliyometrik analiz yapmaktır.
Metot: Çalışmada, Mart 1987'den Haziran 2023'e kadar Web of Science veri tabanındaki tüm makaleler VOSviewer yazılımı (1.6.14 sürümü) kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Başlangıçta, 1173 makalenin tamamı Web of Science tarayıcısında analiz edilmiş ve daha sonra VOSviewer programında daha fazla analiz için dışa aktarılmıştır. VOSviewer programı, ortak yazarlık, ortak oluşum, atıf, bibliyografik bağlantı veya ortak atıf bağlantılarına dayalı ilişki ağlarını haritalamak için kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada ayrıca, yayınların yıllara göre dağılımı incelenmiş, anahtar kelimelerle ilgili makaleler analiz edilmiş, bu konularda en çok yayını olan yazarlar belirlenmiş ve Web of Science tarayıcısı kullanılarak başlık, özet ve anahtar kelimelerde "ortognatik cerrahi" ve "sınıf III" kelimelerini içeren en çok atıf alan 10 makale derlenmiştir.
Bulgular: Bu konularda en çok yayın 2022 yılında yayımlanmıştır. Seung-Hak Baek en çok atıf alan yazardır (413 atıf). Chang Gung Üniversitesi atıflar açısından en üst sırada yer almaktadır (729 atıf) ve bibliyometrik ağ haritasında en kapsamlı yayın kaydına (60 makale) sahiptir. Güney Kore hem makale üretiminde (227 makale) hem de atıf sayısında (2587 atıf) önde gelen ülkedir.
Sonuç: Sınıf III maloklüzyon için ortognatik cerrahi, teknolojik gelişmeler ve hastalar arasında artan estetik kaygılar nedeniyle yıllar içinde büyük ilgi görmüştür. Bu alana olan ilginin artması ve ilgili uygulamaları ve konuları araştıran daha fazla çalışmaya yol açması beklenmektedir.
