Pediatrik Kaudal Anestezi İle İlgili Makalelerin Bibliyometrik Analizi

Abstract

Abstract Background: Bibliyometrik analiz çalışmaları, bir konu hakkındaki literatürü sayısal ve bütünsel olarak inceleyen ve son zamanlarda tıp alanında oldukça ilgi gören çalışmalardır. Pediatrik kaudal anestezi ile ilgili makalelerin sayısı son birkaç dekatta kademeli olarak artmıştır. Ancak literatürde pediatrik kaudal anestezi ile ilgili bibliyometrik analiz çalışması bulunmamaktadır. Bu çalışmada pediatrik kaudal anestezi ile ilgili olarak Web of Science (WoS) Core veritabanında yayınlanan makalelerin bibliyometrik analizinin sunulması amaçlanmıştır. Method: WoS arama motorunu kullandık ve her türlü katkıyı (orijinal makaleler, incelemeler, mektuplar vb.) bibliyometrik analize dahil ettik. Makalelere ulaşmak için kullanılan anahtar kelimeler “pediatrik, kaudal, anestezi, analjezi ve blok” kelimeleridir. Analizler için VOSViewer 1.6.13. versiyonu kullanıldı. Results: Pediatrik kaudal anestezi ile ilgili en çok atıf yapılan yayınlar Pediatric Anesthesia (84 makale, 1892 atıf), Anesthesia and Analgesia (26 makale, 884 atıf) ve Anesthesiology (7 makale, 537 atıf) dergilerinde yer aldı. Pediatrik kaudal anestezi ile ilgili yayın yapan ve sırasıyla en çok atıf alan ülkeler ABD, Fransa, İsveç, Türkiye, Kanada'dır. Conclusion: Pediatrik kaudal anestezi hakkındaki makalelerin kapsamlı analizinde ‘’yayın tarihi, alıntı sayısı, dergi adı, konu ve ülke’’ gibi parametrelere odaklanılmıştır. Pediatrik kaudal anestezinin şu anda pediatrik anestezi araştırmalarında çok önemli bir rol oynaması dikkat çekicidir. Bununla birlikte, literatürde pediatrik kaudal anestezi konusunda farklı ülkelerden farklı vakalar üzerinde yeni çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.

Bibliometric analysis on pediatric caudal anesthesia

Abstract

Abstract Background: Bibliometric analysis studies are studies that examine the literature on a subject numerically and holistically, and have recently attracted a lot of attention in the field of medicine. The number of articles about pediatric caudal anesthesia has increased gradually over the past few decades. However, there is no bibliometric analysis study on pediatric caudal anesthesia in the literature. This study aimed to present a bibliometric analysis of articles published in the Web of Science (WoS) Core database related to pediatric caudal anesthesia. Method: We used the search engine of WoS and included all types of contributions (original articles, reviews, letters, etc.) in the bibliometric analysis. The keywords used to access articles are ‘’pediatric, caudal, anesthesia, analgesia, and block’’ words. For the analyses, VOSViewer 1.6.13. version was used. Results: The most cited publications on pediatric caudal anesthesia were in the following journals: Pediatric Anesthesia (84 articles, 1892 citations), Anesthesia and Analgesia (26 articles, 884 citations) and Anesthesiology (7 articles, 537 citations). The countries that publish and receive the most citations about pediatric caudal anesthesia starting from the highest are the USA, France, Sweden, Turkey, Canada. Conclusion: The following parameters were the foci of a thorough analysis of articles on pediatric caudal anesthesia: publication date, number of citations, journal name, theme, and country. It is noteworthy that pediatric caudal anesthesia currently plays a crucial role in pediatric anesthesia research. However, there is still a need for new studies from different countries on different cases in the literature on pediatric caudal anesthesia.
