To quantify the impact factor of the journal Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas (AD) from 1986 to 1990 and from 1999 to 2003 and to identify the journal's citation pattern in those years.
Citations obtained by AD in the periods from 1985-1990 and 1998-2003 for articles published from 1984 to 1989 and from 1997 to 2002 were collected using Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI).
The number of times AD was cited doubled during the second period, increasing from 38 (period from 1985-1990) to 76 (period from 1998-2003). Considering the number of citations, AD's impact factor increased from 0.016 in 1986 to 0.040 in 2003. In both periods, citations corresponding to AD articles were included in a wide range of source journals, mainly dermatological publications abroad. The most referred journals in the second period were the Dutch publication Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (13 citations) and the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology (12 citations). Unlike the period from 1985 to 1990 when no Spanish journal cited AD, four Spanish publications mentioned AD in the second period: Revista clínica española (6 citations), Archivos de bronconeumología (4 citations), Medicina clínica (3 citations) and the journal Enfermedades infecciosas y microbiología clínica (1 citation). Citations mainly corresponded to articles published by Spanish authors (63.2 % in the 1985-1990 period and 81.6 % in the period from 1998 to 2003). Self-citation increased from 10.5 % (first period) to 31.6 % (second period).
The impact factor of AD is low and not comparable to other publications included in the Dermatology and Venereal Diseases field from SCI. Our results confirm the low citation rate of AD by source journals in this repertory. However, the increase of this rate in recent years seems to indicate a higher Spanish presence in SCI due to an increasing number of publications corresponding to Spanish authors in international journals and the inclusion of some Spanish journals in this database.
量化《皮肤病与性病学年鉴》(AD)在1986年至1990年以及1999年至2003年期间的影响因子,并确定该期刊在这些年份的被引模式。
利用《科学引文索引扩展版》(SCI)收集AD在1985 - 1990年和1998 - 2003年期间对1984年至1989年以及1997年至2002年发表文章的引用情况。
在第二个时期,AD被引用的次数翻倍,从38次(1985 - 1990年期间)增加到76次(1998 - 2003年期间)。考虑到引用次数,AD的影响因子从1986年的0.016增加到2003年的0.040。在这两个时期,AD文章的引用涵盖了广泛的来源期刊,主要是国外的皮肤病学出版物。第二个时期被引用最多的期刊是荷兰出版的《欧洲皮肤病与性病学会杂志》(13次引用)和《美国皮肤病学会杂志》(12次引用)。与1985年至1990年期间没有西班牙期刊引用AD不同,在第二个时期有四种西班牙出版物提到了AD:《西班牙临床杂志》(6次引用)、《支气管肺病学档案》(4次引用)、《临床医学》(3次引用)和《传染病与临床微生物学杂志》(1次引用)。引用主要对应西班牙作者发表的文章(1985 - 1990年期间为63.2%,1998年至2003年期间为81.6%)。自引率从10.5%(第一个时期)增加到31.6%(第二个时期)。
AD的影响因子较低,与SCI收录的皮肤病与性病领域的其他出版物不可比。我们的结果证实了该期刊在这一文献库中被来源期刊引用的比例较低。然而,近年来这一比例的增加似乎表明,由于国际期刊上西班牙作者发表的文章数量增加以及该数据库中纳入了一些西班牙期刊,西班牙在SCI中的影响力有所提高。
