The number of papers published in European neurosurgical journals during the last decade (1980-90) was analysed using online databases. Thirteen journals devoted to neurosurgery were published in Europe at that time. In five of them neurosurgery appears together with other specialties. Almost 50% of all European neurosurgical journals are written in English. They published 68% of all papers by neurosurgeons appearing in the European neurosurgical journals during the last decade. Together with the American neurosurgical journals English was used in about 80% of all neurosurgical publications. Other languages used are German and French (9% each), Russian (5%), Czech or Slovak (4%), Polish (3%), Rumanian (2%). Most papers by European neurosurgeons originate from England, followed by Germany, France, Italy and Sweden. Of the East-European countries Polish neurosurgeons contributed with 782 publications, followed by Czechoslovakia (568), Hungary (501), USSR (470) and East Germany (452). The proportion of papers published in neurosurgical journals by European neurosurgeons to those in the journals devoted to other neurosciences varied from 99% in the USSR to 12% in Austria with an average of 38%. Citation analysis indicates that only a few of the journals have a large impact on neurosurgical publications, while the others have a rather limited influence.
利用在线数据库对过去十年（1980 - 1990年）欧洲神经外科期刊发表的论文数量进行了分析。当时欧洲有13种专门的神经外科期刊出版。其中5种期刊的神经外科内容与其他专科内容合刊。欧洲所有神经外科期刊中近50%是英文撰写的。在过去十年中，这些英文期刊发表了欧洲神经外科医生发表在欧洲神经外科期刊上所有论文的68%。加上美国的神经外科期刊，所有神经外科出版物中约80%使用英文。其他使用的语言有德语和法语（各占9%）、俄语（5%）、捷克语或斯洛伐克语（4%）、波兰语（3%）、罗马尼亚语（2%）。欧洲神经外科医生的大多数论文来自英国，其次是德国、法国、意大利和瑞典。在东欧国家中，波兰神经外科医生发表了782篇论文，其次是捷克斯洛伐克（568篇）、匈牙利（501篇）、苏联（470篇）和东德（452篇）。欧洲神经外科医生在神经外科期刊上发表的论文占专注于其他神经科学期刊上论文的比例，从苏联的99%到奥地利的12%不等，平均为38%。引文分析表明，只有少数期刊对神经外科出版物有较大影响，而其他期刊的影响力相当有限。
