The number of times an article has been cited reflects its influence in a specific field. The aim of this study was to identify and characterize the most highly cited articles published on bariatric and metabolic surgery.
The 50 most frequently cited articles in bariatric and metabolic surgery were identified from the Scopus database in December 2013.
The median number of citations was 383.5 (range 275-2482). Most of the articles were published from 2000-2012 (n = 35), followed by 1990-1999 (n = 12), then before 1990 (n = 3). These citation classics came from 8 countries, with the majority originating from the United States (n = 34), followed by Sweden (n = 4) and Australia (n = 4). The 50 articles were published in 20 journals, led by New England Journal of Medicine (n = 9) and Annals of Surgery (n = 9). Only 10 of the articles were published in obesity-specific journals. The level of evidence of the 49 clinical publications and 1 animal study consisted of level I (n = 5), II (n = 11), III (n = 9), IV (n = 19), and V (n = 6). Meta-analyses were 16% of the total citations. Metabolic (n = 12) and survival (n = 6) effects of surgery were among the most common fields of study.
Extending from the early 1950s through the voluminous growth period of the early 2000s, the field of bariatric and metabolic surgery led to the emergence of many top-cited scientific articles. These articles have provided the scientific basis for the only currently effective treatment for severe obesity. Articles published in high-impact journals, innovative observational studies, meta-analyses, survival analyses, and research on postoperative metabolic changes are most likely to be cited in the field of bariatric surgery.
一篇文章被引用的次数反映了其在特定领域的影响力。本研究的目的是识别和描述在减重与代谢外科领域发表的被引用次数最多的文章。
2013年12月从Scopus数据库中确定了减重与代谢外科领域被引用次数最频繁的50篇文章。
被引用次数的中位数为383.5次（范围为275 - 2482次）。大多数文章发表于2000 - 2012年（n = 35），其次是1990 - 1999年（n = 12），然后是1990年之前（n = 3）。这些被引用经典文章来自8个国家，大多数源自美国（n = 34），其次是瑞典（n = 4）和澳大利亚（n = 4）。这50篇文章发表在20种期刊上，以《新英格兰医学杂志》（n = 9）和《外科学年鉴》（n = 9）为首。只有10篇文章发表在肥胖症专科期刊上。49篇临床出版物和1篇动物研究的证据级别包括I级（n = 5）、II级（n = 11）、III级（n = 9）、IV级（n = 19）和V级（n = 6）。荟萃分析占总引用次数的16%。手术的代谢（n = 12）和生存（n = 6）影响是最常见的研究领域之一。
从20世纪50年代初到21世纪初的大量增长期，减重与代谢外科领域催生了许多被高度引用的科学文章。这些文章为目前唯一有效的重度肥胖治疗方法提供了科学依据。发表在高影响力期刊上的文章、创新性观察研究、荟萃分析、生存分析以及术后代谢变化的研究在减重外科领域最有可能被引用。
