The number of times a research work gets cited by another article is one of the article-level metrics for assessing the quality of a research publication. Citation analysis by bibliometric review has been performed in several disciplines. The current study was aimed to systematically review the literature available on pediatric inguinal hernia since 1960 in terms of the 25 most cited articles in this field and analyze the bibliometric variables author and organizational collaborative patterns.
Thomson Reuters Web of Science citation indexing database and research platform were used to retrieve the most cited articles in pediatric inguinal hernia (PIH) using appropriate search strings. The characteristics (name of authors, the total number of authors, the title of publication, journal of publication, year of publication, etc.) of the 25 top-cited articles were recorded. Specific bibliographical parameters were derived and analyzed. Visualization maps were generated using VOSviewer software.
The analysis revealed that the was leading the choice of journal for publication. While most of the publications originated from the United States of America, Schier was the most influential author. Five of the eight top-productive authors are also the most connected.
Articles on laparoscopic repair in PIH have been heavily cited. Following the United States of America, Turkey stands out as the topmost productive country in PIH. The publications on PIH show that "collaboration" is the bridging force between productivity and influence on the academic community.
一项研究工作被另一篇文章引用的次数是评估研究出版物质量的文章层面指标之一。文献计量学综述的引文分析已在多个学科中进行。本研究旨在根据该领域被引用次数最多的25篇文章，系统回顾自1960年以来有关小儿腹股沟疝的现有文献，并分析文献计量学变量、作者及组织合作模式。
使用汤森路透科学网引文索引数据库和研究平台，通过适当的检索词检索小儿腹股沟疝（PIH）领域被引用次数最多的文章。记录25篇被引用次数最多的文章的特征（作者姓名、作者总数、出版物标题、出版期刊、出版年份等）。得出并分析具体的文献参数。使用VOSviewer软件生成可视化地图。
分析表明，[此处原文缺失相关信息]在期刊选择方面处于领先地位。虽然大多数出版物来自美国，但席尔是最具影响力的作者。八位高产作者中有五位也是联系最紧密的。
关于小儿腹股沟疝腹腔镜修补术的文章被大量引用。仅次于美国，土耳其是小儿腹股沟疝领域产出最高的国家。小儿腹股沟疝方面的出版物表明，“合作”是生产力与对学术界影响力之间的桥梁力量。
