BACKGROUND
Bibliometric analysis is a research tool for evaluating and analyzing scholarly output and impact within a specific domain. This study aimed to assess the quantity and quality of plastic surgery research conducted by Canadian-affiliated authors from 1999 to 2023.
METHODS
We conducted a comprehensive bibliometric analysis using the Web of Science Core Collection to retrieve data from 60 leading plastic surgery journals, focusing on original articles and reviews published between 1999 and 2023. The InCites Benchmarking & Analytics platform evaluated the publications' quantity and quality. Quality assessment employed 2 key metrics:: category-normalized citation impact (CNCI) and the percentage of publications in the top quartile of journals (%Q1) based on impact factors. We used VOSviewer to map collaborative relationships among universities over various periods.
RESULTS
Canada ranked as the 11th leading contributor globally, with 4446 publications. Nationally, the University of Toronto accounted for more than 30% of Canadian contributions. In terms of quality, Canada led with a CNCI of 1.09 and 21% of publications in the %Q1. Within Canada, McMaster University had the highest CNCI at 1.33, while Dalhousie University ranked highest in %Q1 at 32.3%. Our VOSviewer map of institutional collaborations revealed increased cooperation between Canadian universities and international institutions over the last 25 years.
CONCLUSION
Over the last 25 years, the trajectory of Canadian plastic surgery literature has been characterized by continuous expansion while maintaining high quality. Efforts should be made to continue to increase the quality and quantity of Canadian research while sustaining international collaborations.
背景
文献计量分析是一种用于评估和分析特定领域学术产出及影响力的研究工具。本研究旨在评估1999年至2023年加拿大附属作者开展的整形外科学术研究的数量和质量。
方法
我们使用科学网核心合集进行了全面的文献计量分析，以从60种领先的整形外科学术期刊中检索数据，重点关注1999年至2023年发表的原创文章和综述。InCites基准与分析平台评估了出版物的数量和质量。质量评估采用了两个关键指标：类别归一化引文影响力（CNCI）和基于影响因子在期刊前四分之一中的出版物百分比（%Q1）。我们使用VOSviewer绘制不同时期各大学之间的合作关系图。
结果
加拿大在全球贡献排名中位列第11，有4446篇出版物。在国内，多伦多大学占加拿大贡献的30%以上。在质量方面，加拿大以1.09的CNCI和21%的%Q1出版物领先。在加拿大国内，麦克马斯特大学的CNCI最高，为1.33，而达尔豪斯大学在%Q1中排名最高，为32.3%。我们的机构合作VOSviewer图显示，在过去25年里，加拿大各大学与国际机构之间的合作有所增加。
结论
在过去25年里，加拿大整形外科学术文献的发展轨迹呈现出持续扩张且保持高质量的特点。应努力在维持国际合作的同时，继续提高加拿大研究的质量和数量。
