Abstract

Objective: Our study aimed to evaluate the 100 most cited publications related to Sjögren's Syndrome (SS) in terms of their bibliometric characteristics.
Methods: Our study was carried out with the appropriate keywords by using the “Web of Science (WOS) "search engine after obtaining ethics committee approval. The search was performed on 23.06.2021, and the top 100 most cited publications were determined. The total number of citations of each publication, the annual number of citations, the authors, the information related to the study and the journal were determined.
Results: In the literature analysis covering the period between 1975 and 2021, it was determined that there were a total of 22,251 publications related to SS. The total citation average of the 100 most cited articles was found to be 333.10±386.10, while the annual citation average was 18.38±21.96. The first three areas that these studies focused on were pathogenesis (42%), clinic (16%), and treatment (12%). A significant relationship was found between the publication year of the article, name and country of the journal, and the mean annual citation number. A significant relationship was found between the subject of the study and the presence of a group author in the study and both the total number of citations and the mean annual citation number (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Our study is the first study evaluating and analyzing the top 100 most cited studies related to SS in the literature. Today, the importance of rheumatological diseases in the clinic is increasing day by day, and SS, which is among these diseases, has a great place.

Sjögren Sendromu Hakkında En Çok Atıf Alan 100 Makalenin Değerlendirilmesi: Bir Bibliografik Analiz

Abstract

Amaç: Çalışmamızda literatürde Sjögren Sendromu(SS) ile ilgili olan ve en çok atıf alan 100 yayının bibliyometrik özellikleri açısından değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntemler: Çalışmamız etik kurul onamının alınması ardından “Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) Web of Science (WOS)” arama motorunun “advanced mode” özelliği kullanılarak uygun anahtar kelimeler kullanılarak yapıldı. Arama 23.06.2021 tarihinde yapılarak konu ile ilgili en çok atıf alan ilk 100 yayın belirlendi. Her yayının toplam atıf sayısı, yıllık atıf sayısı, çalışmacıları, çalışmanın ve derginin bilgileri belirlendi.
Bulgular: 1975 ile 2021 yılı arası literatürün analizinde SS ile ilgili toplam 22.251 yayın olduğu belirlendi. En fazla atıf alan 100 makalenin toplam atıf ortalaması 333,10±386,10, yıllık atıf ortalaması 18,38±21,96 olarak saptanmıştır. Bu çalışmaların odaklandığı ilk üç alan patogenez(%42), klinik(%16) ve tedavi(%12)’di. Çalışmaların en çok yayınlandığı ilk üç dergi “Arthritis and Rheumatism” (%23), “Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases”(%13), “Journal of Immunology” (%6) olarak belirlendi. Makalenin yayınlanma yılı, derginin Q indexi ve derginin sınıfı ile yıllık atıf sayısı arasında anlamlı ilişki saptanmıştır. Çalışma konusu ve çalışmada grup otör bulunması ile hem toplam atıf sayısı hem de ortalama yıllık atıf sayısı arasında anlamlı ilişki saptanmıştır (p<0.05).
Sonuç: Çalışmamız literatürde SS ile ilgili en çok atıf alan ilk 100 çalışmanın değerlendirilip analiz edildiği ilk çalışmadır. Konuyla ilgi en çok atıf yapılan çalışmaların çoğu SS patogenezini ilgilendirmektedir. Romatolojik hastalıkların klinikteki öneminin her geçen gün arttığı günümüzde, bu hastalıklar içerisinde bulunan SS büyük bir yer tutmaktadır.
