The aim of this study is to identify patterns in information sharing between Evidence-Based Medicine journals to determine key evidence dissemination areas from co-authorship, co-occurrence and citation networks and to provide a scientific horizon for improving the dissemination of Evidence Based Medicine Research in Iran. And show the trend of Evidence Based Medicine research at Endocrinology & Metabolism Research Institute (EMRI), Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
This was a bibliometric study. Scopus database was used for retrieving and analyzing the publications. We analyzed the relationship between co-authorship and citation and visualized them. Co-occurrence keywords in EBM articles in the Scopus database, and developed subject charts and research field relationship.
Journal of Diabetes and Metabolism Disorders (GDMD) contains a large collection of information of relevance to Evidence Based Medicine and its contents are widely cited across many journals in Iran. The investigation of co-authorship network showed that 121 EBM articles from 191 authors, Akbar Soltani has the highest citations in EBM research and he is a pioneer in this subject area. The scientific contributions of GDMD to EBM is mostly in disease control and therapy. An Evidence Based Medicine Research Center focused more on these areas such as education, treatment and research, Evidence Based Clinical Practice, Evidence Based Policymaking and to improve clinical reasoning and clinical thinking. In co-occurrence author keywords, the highest publications were in osteoporosis. From the main journals that had published the most were the journal of diabetes and metabolic disorders (GDMD) .From citation organizations, EMRI contains large collections of information of relevance to EBM and are widely cited across 171 organizations in Iran.
An Evidence Based Medicine Research Center scientific production contain several key clusters. With authors, organizations and subject area being the source of the majority of articles. The EBM co-authorship author's network in Iran is comprised of 191 authors in 23 clusters in major groups, the largest and most productive in this network is led by Akbar Soltani with Bagher Larijani,Shirin Hasani Ranjbar, Arash Moayyari, Arash Hossen-nazhad, Iraj Nabipour, Ramin Heshmat ,Hamideh Mosapour,Azadeh Aletaha, ,Mahbobeh Khabaz- Mafinejad as central members. The findings shows that EBM research topics are widely communicated to other medical fields like osteoporosis and obesity and have begun to shift from Evidence Based clinical Practice to Evidence based management.
本研究旨在识别循证医学期刊之间信息共享的模式，以确定共同作者、共现和引文网络中的关键证据传播领域，并为改善伊朗循证医学研究的传播提供科学视野。同时展示德黑兰医科大学内分泌与代谢研究所（EMRI）的循证医学研究趋势。
这是一项文献计量学研究。使用Scopus数据库检索和分析出版物。我们分析了共同作者与引文之间的关系并将其可视化。分析了Scopus数据库中循证医学文章中的共现关键词，并绘制了主题图表和研究领域关系图。
《糖尿病与代谢紊乱杂志》（GDMD）包含大量与循证医学相关的信息，其内容在伊朗的许多期刊中被广泛引用。共同作者网络调查显示，191位作者撰写的121篇循证医学文章中，阿克巴尔·索尔塔尼在循证医学研究中的被引次数最高，他是该领域的先驱。GDMD对循证医学的科学贡献主要在于疾病控制和治疗。一个循证医学研究中心更关注教育、治疗与研究、循证临床实践、循证政策制定以及改善临床推理和临床思维等领域。在共现作者关键词中，发表最多的是骨质疏松症。发表文章最多的主要期刊是《糖尿病与代谢紊乱杂志》（GDMD）。在引文机构方面，EMRI包含大量与循证医学相关的信息，并被伊朗的171个机构广泛引用。
一个循证医学研究中心的科研成果包含几个关键集群。作者、机构和学科领域是大多数文章的来源。伊朗循证医学共同作者网络由主要群体中23个集群的191位作者组成，该网络中最大且最具生产力的集群由阿克巴尔·索尔塔尼领导，成员包括巴盖尔·拉里贾尼、希林·哈桑尼·兰贾巴尔、阿拉什·莫亚里、阿拉什·霍森 - 纳扎德、伊拉杰·纳比波尔、拉明·赫什马特、哈米德·莫萨普尔、阿扎德·阿莱塔哈、马赫博贝·哈巴兹 - 马菲内贾德等核心成员。研究结果表明，循证医学研究主题广泛传播到骨质疏松症和肥胖症等其他医学领域，并且已开始从循证临床实践转向循证管理。
