BACKGROUND: Open access (OA) articles are freely accessible online, either on the publisher/journal website or in a repository, a publicly available, free-of-charge online database. The primary aim of this study was to investigate whether OA publication confers a citation advantage in pediatric orthopaedics. METHODS: Pediatric orthopaedic studies published in English from January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2012 were identified through Excerpta medica database , Cochrane, and PubMed. Abstract screening and full-text evaluation were performed in duplicate. Citation counts over 10 years following publication, 2012 journal impact factor, OA status, type of OA, journal field, geographic location of senior author and journal publication, study design, study focus, subspecialty, level of evidence, and presence of funding were recorded. Statistical analyses were performed using independent samples t-tests, 1-way analysis of variance, χ tests, and multiple regression analysis. RESULTS: Of this study's 989 pediatric orthopaedic articles, 43.8% were OA. The mean citation count was 19.8 ± 24.4 on Web of Science. Compared to OA publications, the highest percentage of non-OA articles were published in a journal from North America, had a senior author from North America, were indexed in Journal Citation Reports, and were published in orthopaedic journals ( < .001). In multiple regression analysis, OA publication, higher levels of evidence, publication in a journal with a higher impact factor, having a senior author from Europe or North America, and study funding were associated with significantly increased citation counts. OA articles were cited an additional 3 times, on average, over 10 years. CONCLUSIONS: Open access publication in pediatric orthopaedics confers an advantage of 3 extra citations over a decade, on average. KEY CONCEPTS: (1)Publishing pediatric orthopaedic articles open access confers an advantage of 3 additional citations over a decade compared to non-open access publication.(2)43.8% of pediatric orthopaedic articles are published open access. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.
背景:开放获取(OA)文章可在出版商/期刊网站或知识库(一个公开可用的免费在线数据库)上免费在线获取。本研究的主要目的是调查OA发表在小儿骨科领域是否具有被引优势。 方法:通过医学文摘数据库、Cochrane和PubMed检索2012年1月1日至2012年6月30日期间发表的英文小儿骨科研究。摘要筛选和全文评估均进行了两次。记录发表后10年的被引次数、2012年期刊影响因子、OA状态、OA类型、期刊领域、资深作者地理位置和期刊发表情况、研究设计、研究重点、亚专业、证据水平以及是否有资金支持。使用独立样本t检验、单因素方差分析、χ检验和多元回归分析进行统计分析。 结果:在本研究的989篇小儿骨科文章中,43.8%为OA文章。在科学网上的平均被引次数为19.8±24.4次。与OA发表文章相比,非OA文章中发表在北美期刊上、资深作者来自北美的比例最高,被收录在《期刊引证报告》中,且发表在骨科期刊上(P<0.001)。在多元回归分析中,OA发表、更高的证据水平、发表在影响因子较高的期刊上、资深作者来自欧洲或北美以及研究资金与被引次数显著增加相关。OA文章在10年内平均被多引用3次。 结论:小儿骨科领域的开放获取发表平均在十年内具有多被引用3次的优势。 关键概念:(1)与非开放获取发表相比,以开放获取方式发表小儿骨科文章在十年内具有多被引用3次的优势。(2)43.8%的小儿骨科文章以开放获取方式发表。 证据水平:III级
