Bibliometric Analysis of Algology Theses in Turkey: Research Trends and Publication Outcomes

Öz

Objective: Algology is an evolving subspecialty within anesthesiology, neurology, and physical medicine and rehabilitation. Specialty theses are crucial for medical education and scientific progress. However, no systematic evaluation has been conducted on the distribution, thematic focus, or publication status of algology-related theses in Turkey. This study aims to perform a bibliometric analysis of such theses, examining their distribution across disciplines, research trends, publication rates, and academic impact. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study utilized data from the National Thesis Center of Turkey. Theses in anesthesiology, neurology, and physical medicine and rehabilitation were reviewed to identify those related to algology. Extracted data included thesis titles, research topics, study designs, advisor titles, institutional affiliations, publication status, and citation data. Descriptive statistics and comparative analyses were employed to assess differences across disciplines. Results: Of 10,505 specialty theses, 331 (3.2%) were related to algology. Neurology contributed the highest proportion (6.8%), followed by anesthesiology (2.3%) and physical medicine and rehabilitation (1.5%). Neurology focused on headache disorders (86.3%), anesthesiology on interventional techniques (20.3%), and physical medicine and rehabilitation on peripheral nerve blocks (24.3%). The overall publication rate was 34.1%, with significant differences across disciplines (p = 0.048). Neurology had the highest publication rate in SCI/SCI-E journals (60.3%). Conclusion: This is the first comprehensive bibliometric analysis of algology-related theses in Turkey. Findings highlight differences in research focus, publication rates, and methodologies, emphasizing the need for enhanced interdisciplinary collaboration and institutional support in pain medicine research.
