Abstract

BACKGROUND

Scholarship is an essential component of academic pharmacy. Department chairs are considered role models and mentors to junior faculty, but their publication record has not been documented.

OBJECTIVE

To quantify publication patterns of pharmacy practice chairs in general and, specifically, at health sciences center (HSC)-based versus non-HSC-based and public versus private colleges of pharmacy.

METHODS

Pharmacy practice chairs were identified using the 2006-2007 roster of faculty from the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy. Of the 89 colleges of pharmacy in the roster, 11 listed no pharmacy practice chair and 5 listed more than one. Data were collected on the remaining 73 schools by searching each chair's name on PubMed and Web of Science (WoS). Data on total publications, publications per year, total citations, citations per article, h-index, and m quotient were collected.

RESULTS

A total of 2394 papers published by 73 pharmacy practice chairs were found in a search of PubMed. The mean number of total publications per chair was 33 (95% CI 21 to 44). The mean number of publications per year was 1.4 using PubMed and 1.6 using WoS. Mean h-index was 8.0 (95% CI 6.3 to 9.6). Mean number of total citations was 410 (95% CI 252 to 568). Thirty-three percent (n = 24) had less than 10 lifetime publications and 18% had more than 50 lifetime publications. HSC-based chairs averaged 51.3 papers while non-HSC-based chairs averaged 19.1 (p < 0.01). Similar data were found for total citations (HSC = 673 vs non-HSC = 216; p < 0.001). Public school chairs had an average of 41.5 articles cited on PubMed, versus 15 for private school chairs (p < 0.01). Public school chairs had an average h-index of 9.7 versus 4.4 for private school chairs (p < 0.001), and an average of 9.2 citations per article compared with 5.2 for private school chairs (p < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONS

These data provide a normative pattern of publication metrics and record for pharmacy practice chairs and demonstrate marked variability in scholarly productivity.

摘要

背景

学术研究是药学专业的重要组成部分。系主任被视为初级教员的榜样和导师，但其发表记录尚未得到记录。

目的

量化药学实践系主任的总体发表模式，特别是基于健康科学中心（HSC）与非HSC以及公立与私立药学院的发表模式。

方法

使用美国药学院协会2006 - 2007年教员名册确定药学实践系主任。在名册中的89所药学院中，11所未列出药学实践系主任，5所列出不止一位。通过在PubMed和科学网（WoS）上搜索每位系主任的名字，收集了其余73所学校的数据。收集了总发表量、每年发表量、总被引次数、每篇文章被引次数、h指数和m商的数据。

结果

在PubMed搜索中，共发现73位药学实践系主任发表了2394篇论文。每位系主任的总发表量平均数为33篇（95%置信区间21至44）。使用PubMed时每年发表量平均数为1.4篇，使用WoS时为1.6篇。平均h指数为8.0（95%置信区间6.3至9.6）。总被引次数平均数为410次（95%置信区间252至568）。33%（n = 24）的人终身发表量少于10篇，18%的人终身发表量超过50篇。基于HSC的系主任平均发表51.3篇论文，而非HSC的系主任平均发表19.1篇（p < 0.01）。总被引次数也有类似数据（HSC = 673对非HSC = 216；p < 0.001）。公立学校系主任在PubMed上的平均被引文章数为41.5篇，私立学校系主任为15篇（p < 0.01）。公立学校系主任的平均h指数为9.7，私立学校系主任为4.4（p < 0.001），每篇文章的平均被引次数为9.2次，私立学校系主任为5.2次（p < 0.001）。
