To assess the relationship between the H index and the academic rank among full-time academic craniofacial surgeons.
This was a cross-sectional study of full-time academic craniofacial surgeons.
Data were compiled and analyzed at the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Johns Hopkins Hospital.
The study sample included 127 full-time academic craniofacial surgeons. Overall, 89% were men, the mean number of years since completion of training was 16.2 ± 11.2 years. Most surgeons had a background in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Approximately 75% had completed formal fellowship training. The mean H index for the sample was 12.4 ± 9.9. The H index was strongly correlated with academic rank (r = 0.62, p < 0.001). In a multiple linear regression model, adjusting for multiple confounders/effect modifiers, including number of years since training and total number of publications, the H index was significantly associated with academic rank (coefficient = 0.33, p = 0.04).
Among full-time academic craniofacial surgeons, the H index is strongly correlated with the academic rank.
评估全职颅面外科医生的H指数与学术排名之间的关系。
这是一项针对全职颅面外科医生的横断面研究。
数据在约翰霍普金斯医院整形与重建外科进行收集和分析。
研究样本包括127名全职颅面外科医生。总体而言,89%为男性,完成培训后的平均年限为16.2±11.2年。大多数外科医生有整形与重建外科背景。约75%完成了正规的专科培训。样本的平均H指数为12.4±9.9。H指数与学术排名密切相关(r = 0.62,p < 0.001)。在多元线性回归模型中,对包括培训后年限和发表论文总数在内的多个混杂因素/效应修饰因素进行调整后,H指数与学术排名显著相关(系数 = 0.33,p = 0.04)。
