Objective: This study was designed to investigate the influence of journals indexed by Science Citation Index (SCI) on Chinese medical journals.
Method: Articles on medicine written by Chinese and the journals that published these articles from 2000 to 2009 were searched using Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) database, and the status and variation tendency of the impact factors (IF) of these journals were analyzed. Data of articles on medicine included Chinese Scientific and Technical Paper and Citations Data (CSTPCD) from 2000 to 2008 were searched (the data of 2009 have not been released). The included articles and the time-dependent changing profile were studied. These outcomes were evaluated as the fixed base relative or link relative when compared with the data of 2000 or those of last year, respectively. Geometric mean was used when mean increase was calculated and IF distribution was described with median.
Result: Totally 3774 articles from China were published by journals indexed by SCI-E in 2000, and the number of articles published by Chinese authors increased every year. In 2008, 16 714 articles were indexed by SCI-E, 442.87% higher than those of 2000. The increment was 161.54% higher than that of articles published in the journals indexed by CSTPCD (281.33%) during the same period. From 2000 to 2009, the geometric mean of increase in the number of published articles from China in journals indexed by SCI-E was 20.87% but it was 18.21% in CSTPCD. From 2000 to 2009, the median of IF of SCI-E indexed journals that published Chinese medical articles was 1.866, 2.073, 2.390, 2.702, 2.409, 2.496, 2.380, 2.218, 2.280 and 2.331, respectively, and they did not increase or even decreased.
Conclusion: The number of the articles indexed by SCI-E increased year by year, much faster than that of CSTPCD. However, it does not necessarily mean the increase in impact.

Hotspots and global trends in research of host immune response in periodontitis: A bibliometric analysis.
J Periodontol
January 2025
Department of Stomatology, School of Dentistry, University of São Paulo, Av. Prof. Lineu Prestes, São Paulo, SP, Brazil.
Background: The host immune response plays a major role in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. A bibliometric study can be crucial to understanding the different processes involved in this area; however, to our knowledge, it has not been published until now. Therefore, a bibliometric analysis was conducted to assess research hotspots and global trends in scientific articles about the immune response in periodontitis published between 1952 and 2023.

This editorial focuses on the issue of data misuse that is increasingly evidenced in social media as well as some premiere scientific journals. This issue is of critical importance to open science projects in general, and ABCD in particular, given the broad array of biological, behavioural and environmental information collected on this American sample of 12,000 youth and parents. ABCD data are already widely used with over 1,200 publications and twice as many citations per year as expected (relative citation index based on year, field and journal).

Objective: This study aimed to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the literature on Brief Resolved Unexplained Event (BRUE) and its predecessor, Apparent Life-Threatening Event (ALTE), from 1988 to 2024, in order to identify research trends, collaborative networks, and areas of focus in this field.
Methods: We analyzed articles indexed in Scopus and Web of Science using various bibliometric indicators. The visualization of bibliometric networks was performed using VOSviewer and bibliometrix.

Background: Recent studies have suggested that some opportunistic periodontal pathobionts have oncogenic properties. However, few bibliometric studies investigate the relationship between periodontitis and gastrointestinal cancer. This bibliometric study aimed to analyze these epidemiological studies conducted between 2014 and 2023 to guide future research.

Introduction: Patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) can experience intermittent claudication, which limits walking capacity and the ability to undertake daily activities. While exercise therapy is an established way to improve walking capacity in people with PAD, it is not feasible in all patients. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) provides a way to passively induce repeated muscle contractions and has been widely used as a therapy for chronic conditions that limit functional capacity.
