基于ESI的全球儿科学领域研究热点分析及其启示

Analysis of global research hotspots in the field of pediatrics based on Essential Science Indicators and its revelation

目的利用基本科学指标(ESI)数据库,分析全球儿科学领域研究热点及其对国内编辑和儿科学科研人员的启示。方法收集并整理分析ESI数据库中2011年至2021年儿科学领域高被引论文的期刊分布、国家(或地区)分布、合作情况、机构分布、基金资助、出版语言、热点主题词等资料。结果共有682篇儿科学高被引论文分布在SCI收录的77种儿科学期刊上,其中发表高被引论文最多的是Pediatrics,共182篇。682篇儿科学高被引论文出版语言均为英语,出版频次普遍较高,具有多位作者及多个机构合作和多项基金资助的特征;682篇儿科学高被引论文中,美国发文量最高(435篇),英格兰第2位(123篇),加拿大第3位(86篇)。目前,全球儿科学领域的学术前沿主要是新型冠状病毒肺炎大流行、冠状病毒疾病、SARS冠状病毒、自闭症、多系统炎症综合征;具体到儿科系统疾病主要是呼吸系统疾病、消化系统疾病、心血管疾病等。结论基于ESI的儿科学领域研究热点分析不仅为国内外儿科学研究人员了解全球儿科学领域学术前沿和发展动态以及开展下一步的科研选题提供参考资料,还可帮助国内科技期刊编辑进行选题策划、组稿和约稿热点论文,进而提高期刊的学术质量和国际影响力。

Objective To analyze the global research hotspots in the field of pediatrics based on the Essential Science Indicators(ESI)database and explore the inspiration to domestic editors and pediatrics researchers.Methods The journal distribution,country(region)distribution,cooperation,organization distribution,funding,publication language,hot topic words and other data of highly cited papers in the field of pediatrics in ESI database were collected and analyzed.Results A total of 682 highly cited pediatrics papers were collected from 77 pediatrics journals included in Science Citation Index(SCI).Most of the highly cited pediatrics papers(182)were found to be published in Pediatrics.All 682 paper were published in English and frequently,characterized by multiple authors,institutions and fund support.Of 682 highly cited pediatrics papers,435 papers were published in the United States(the first),123 papers in England(the second)and 86 paper in Canada(the third).Novel coronavirus pneumonia,coronavirus,SARS coronavirus,autism and multiple system inflammatory syndrome are the main frontiers of global pediatric research at present.Specifically,focal pediatric system diseases mainly include respiratory system diseases,digestive system diseases,cardiovascular diseases,etc.Conclusions ESI-based analysis of global research hotspots in the field of pediatrics provides reference materials for domestic and foreign pediatrics researchers to understand the global academic frontiers and development trends in the field of pediatrics and select topics for future scientific research.More importantly,this analysis can help domestic editors of pediatrics journals to plan topics and organize hot papers,so as to improve the academic quality and international influence of the journals.
