Bibliometrics are methods used to quantitatively analyze the scientific literature. The application of bibliometrics in neurosurgery is emerging and has not yet been studied in the French neurosurgical community. In France, the most used statistical method is named SIGAPS; the scores are based on the position of the author and the impact factor of the journal. The SIGAPS score, which can be calculated for a research team or an individual, impacts the public financial support of university hospitals in France. We analyzed retrospectively the publication productivity and the SIGAPS score of university neurosurgery departments in France for the period 2009-2016. This was supplemented by a list of current academic research protocols granted by the Minister of Health. The SIGAPS score is higher in large university hospitals even though all teams are dedicated to publishing more in the traditional neurosurgery journals (Neurosurgery, Journal of Neurosurgery, World Neurosurgery, J Neuro-oncology, Neuro oncology, Eur Spine J). Of note, the national Neurochirurgie journal (publishing in French and English) is progressively improving its impact factor (0.8). The most common themes are functional neurosurgery, neuro-oncology and spine. There are 14 on-going national multicenter research programs, 4 of them focused on the health economics of treatment innovations. These data provide the most accurate available snapshot of the scholarly efforts of all the French university neurosurgery departments. It is based on a national statistics method (SIGAPS). For future evaluation, it should be combined with internationally available parameters such as the h-index and m-quotient. Publication productivity has broad implications for the success of both academic departments and individual faculty members and their financial support.
文献计量学是用于定量分析科学文献的方法。文献计量学在神经外科领域的应用正在兴起，而法国神经外科界尚未对此进行研究。在法国，最常用的统计方法名为SIGAPS；分数基于作者的排名和期刊的影响因子。SIGAPS分数可针对研究团队或个人进行计算，它影响着法国大学医院的公共财政支持。我们回顾性分析了2009年至2016年期间法国大学神经外科科室的发表产出和SIGAPS分数。此外还补充了一份由卫生部长批准的当前学术研究方案清单。尽管所有团队都致力于在传统神经外科期刊（《神经外科》《神经外科杂志》《世界神经外科》《神经肿瘤学杂志》《神经肿瘤学》《欧洲脊柱杂志》）上发表更多文章，但大型大学医院的SIGAPS分数更高。值得注意的是，国家级的《神经外科学》杂志（以法语和英语出版）的影响因子正在逐步提高（0.8）。最常见的主题是功能神经外科、神经肿瘤学和脊柱。目前有14项正在进行的全国多中心研究项目，其中4项专注于治疗创新的卫生经济学。这些数据提供了所有法国大学神经外科科室学术成果的最准确可用概况。它基于一种国家统计方法（SIGAPS）。对于未来的评估，应将其与国际通用参数如h指数和m商数相结合。发表产出对学术科室和个体教职员工的成功及其财政支持都具有广泛影响。
