Abstract:
In a broad sense, science can be understood as the knowledge contained in scientific manuscripts published in scientific journals. Scientific databases index only those journals that reach certain quality standards. Therefore, research and dissemination of scientific knowledge are essential activities for the growth of science itself. The aim of this manuscript is to assess the situation of medicine and environmental sciences among the bibliometric literature and to put it in perspective with the overall bibliometric publications in all scientific fields. The main countries publishing bibliometric manuscripts are China, USA and Spain. The latter country is ranked three out of the top five institutions according to the Scopus and WoS databases. In both databases, the average scientific collaboration of the top 20 institutions offers the same result, 41%. According to Scopus, the main subject categories in which this research falls are social sciences (38%), computer science (26%) and medicine (23%), while the environmental sciences category has 8%. In the analysis of the Medicine category alone, it has been observed that 136 countries have contributions in this field. The main countries are the United States, China and the United Kingdom. In the field of medicine, the main areas studied were: Epidemiology, Pediatrics, Orthopedics, Cardiology, Neurosurgery, Radiology, Ophthalmology, Oncology, Plastic Surgery and Psychiatry. With respect to environmental sciences, less international dissemination has been found, with only 83 countries having worked in this field. The main ones are China, Spain and the United States. Regarding the top 10 institutions, it can be stated that only Spain and China are relevant. Spain focuses on sustainability and China on the environment. The result of an independent keyword analysis of all published bibliometric manuscripts has shown that the main clusters are: Mapping Science (29%), Research Productivity (23%), Medicine (20%), Environmental Sciences (12%), Psychology (7%), Nursing (6%) and Engineering (4%). In short, medicine and environmental sciences are the most relevant areas in the field of bibliometrics after social sciences and computer sciences.
摘要:
在广义上,科学可以理解为科学期刊上发表的科学手稿中包含的知识。科学数据库仅索引达到某些质量标准的期刊。因此,科学知识的研究和传播是科学本身发展的重要活动。本手稿的目的是评估文献计量文献中医学和环境科学的状况,并将其与所有科学领域的总体文献计量出版物结合起来。出版文献计量手稿的主要国家是中国,美国和西班牙。根据Scopus和WoS数据库,后者在前五名机构中排名第三。在这两个数据库中,排名前20位的机构的平均科学合作提供了相同的结果,41%。根据Scopus的说法,这项研究属于的主要学科类别是社会科学(38%),计算机科学(26%)和医学(23%),而环境科学类别则占8%。仅在医学类别的分析中,据观察,有136个国家在这一领域做出了贡献。主要国家是美国,中国和英国。在医学领域,研究的主要领域是:流行病学,儿科,骨科,心脏病学,神经外科,放射学,眼科,肿瘤学,整形外科和精神病学。关于环境科学,国际传播较少,只有83个国家在这一领域工作过。主要是中国,西班牙和美国。关于十大机构,可以说,只有西班牙和中国是相关的。西班牙注重可持续性,中国注重环境。对所有已出版的文献计量手稿进行独立关键字分析的结果表明,主要聚类是:制图科学(29%),研究生产率(23%),医药(20%)环境科学(12%),心理学(7%)护理(6%)和工程(4%)。总之,医学和环境科学是继社会科学和计算机科学之后,文献计量学领域最相关的领域。
