The purpose of this study was to find out whether dissemination of gastroenterology and hepatology (GI) research on social media networks correlates with citation count at 5 years.
We correlated the Altmetric Attention Score with Web of Science citation counts at 5 years for scholarly work published in the 10 highest impact factor GI journals in 2014.
In 4,026 analyzed items, the correlation (r) between Altmetric Attention Score and citations at 5 years was 0.62 (P < 0.001), representing strong correlation. Twitter was the platform with the strongest correlation with citations.
Social media attention garnered by GI scholarly work strongly correlates with the number of citations at 5 years.
本研究旨在探讨在社交媒体网络上传播胃肠病学和肝脏病学(GI)研究是否与 5 年后的引用次数相关。
我们将 Altmetric 关注度与 2014 年发表在 10 种影响因子最高的 GI 期刊上的学术论文在 5 年后的 Web of Science 引用次数进行了相关性分析。
在分析的 4026 项研究中,Altmetric 关注度与 5 年后的引用次数之间的相关性(r)为 0.62(P < 0.001),表明相关性很强。Twitter 是与引用次数相关性最强的平台。
GI 学术研究在社交媒体上获得的关注度与 5 年后的引用次数密切相关。
