To date, no study has used bibliometric analysis to review the most influential articles in lumbar spinal stenosis. The objective of this study was to identify and analyze the characteristics and the level of evidence of the 100 most cited articles on lumbar spinal stenosis METHODS: The Thomson Reuters Web of Science was accessed to find the 100 most cited articles on lumbar spinal stenosis. For each article, we recorded the number and density of citations, authors, country, journals and years, department, level of evidence, type of study, and if it was part of any multicenter studies.
Until January 2017, the 100 most cited articles accumulated 11,136 citations (average: 259.05/y), ranging individually between 442 and 50 (average: 111.36). The first reference was published in 1974 in . Therapeutic studies ( = 40), the 1990s ( = 46), United States as country of origin ( = 51), Harvard University as institution ( = 16), Katz JN as author ( = 10), and Spine as journal ( = 48) have the hegemony. Many were multicenter ( = 42) and using level 2 evidence ( = 49). There is an inverse relationship between citation index and long-standing studies, maintenance of those most cited, and a temporary advance toward better levels of evidence.
This bibliometric analysis reveals a good level of evidence in the published clinical series and includes 100 articles useful for the approach of lumbar spinal stenosis.
迄今为止,尚无研究采用文献计量学分析方法来综述腰椎椎管狭窄症最具影响力的文献。本研究的目的是识别和分析腰椎椎管狭窄症 100 篇被引频次最高文献的特征和证据水平。
通过访问 Thomson Reuters Web of Science,找出腰椎椎管狭窄症被引频次最高的 100 篇文献。对于每篇文献,我们记录了引用次数和密度、作者、国家、期刊和年份、科室、证据水平、研究类型,以及是否为多中心研究的一部分。
截至 2017 年 1 月,这 100 篇被引频次最高的文献共被引用 11136 次(平均:259.05/年),单篇文献的引用次数范围为 442 至 50(平均:111.36)。第一篇参考文献发表于 1974 年,发表于《治疗学研究》( = 40),文献发表于 20 世纪 90 年代( = 46),来自美国( = 51),哈佛大学作为机构( = 16),作者 Katz JN( = 10),期刊 Spine( = 48)占据主导地位。许多研究为多中心研究( = 42),并使用了 2 级证据( = 49)。引文索引与长期研究、维持最常被引文献以及朝着更好证据水平的暂时提升之间存在反比关系。
本文献计量分析显示,发表的临床系列研究具有较好的证据水平,包括 100 篇对腰椎椎管狭窄症治疗有帮助的文章。
