Scientific publications originating from medical specialty theses are seen as a start to an academic career for clinicians and a criterion to work in academia in Turkey.
To evaluate thoracic surgery theses in the period 2001-2019 in publication and other bibliometric parameters.
Our study investigated 319 theses prepared in the thoracic surgery field between January 2001 and December 2019 and registered in the National Thesis Center. We identified and recorded the author's gender, institution, research method, publication status, time, citations, journals' index, and author's order using Google Scholar, Web of Science Basic Search, and Master Journal List.
Of the 319 evaluated, 262 theses were from universities, and 57 were in Training and Research Hospitals. Thirty-two studies (10%) were experimental or prospective clinical. The number of published studies (38.5%) in journals was 123 (66 SCI/SCI-E, 8 ESCI, three other international indexes, and 46 national indexes). Sixty (18.8%) authors were women. The mean time to publication was 4.31 ±2.95 years. It was 3.3 years for female researchers ( = 0.029). Experimental/prospective studies in universities were relatively higher. The number of citations in SCI/SCI-E journals was significantly higher ( < 0.001). The time to the publication of experimental/prospective studies was shorter ( = 0.039).
The publication rate of thoracic surgery theses was 38.5%. Female researchers published their studies earlier. Articles in SCI/SCI-E journals had a higher number of citations. The time to publication was significantly shorter in experimental/prospective studies. This study is the first in the literature as a bibliometric report of the thoracic surgery thesis.
源自医学专业论文的科学出版物被视为临床医生学术生涯的起点，也是在土耳其学术界工作的一项标准。
评估2001年至2019年期间胸外科论文的发表情况及其他文献计量学参数。
我们的研究调查了2001年1月至2019年12月期间在胸外科领域撰写并在国家论文中心注册的319篇论文。我们使用谷歌学术、科学网基本搜索和主期刊列表确定并记录了作者的性别、机构、研究方法、发表状态、时间、引用次数、期刊索引和作者排名。
在评估的319篇论文中，262篇来自大学，57篇来自培训与研究医院。32项研究（10%）为实验性或前瞻性临床研究。发表在期刊上的研究数量（38.5%）为123篇（66篇SCI/SCI-E、8篇ESCI、3篇其他国际索引和46篇国内索引）。60名（18.8%）作者为女性。平均发表时间为4.31±2.95年。女性研究人员的发表时间为3.3年（P = 0.029）。大学中的实验性/前瞻性研究相对较多。SCI/SCI-E期刊中的引用次数显著更高（P < 0.001）。实验性/前瞻性研究的发表时间更短（P = 0.039）。
胸外科论文的发表率为38.5%。女性研究人员更早发表她们的研究。SCI/SCI-E期刊上的文章引用次数更多。实验性/前瞻性研究的发表时间显著更短。本研究是文献中第一篇关于胸外科论文的文献计量学报告。
