■基于植入物的乳房重建(IBR),乳房切除术后,显著影响患者的生活质量(QoL),需要通过心理上强大的患者报告结果测量(PROM)工具进行准确的测量。此文献计量分析旨在辨别趋势,找出差距,并评估IBR文献中此类工具的使用情况。
■在WebofScience上确定了关于基于植入物的重建中QoL的100篇引用最多的出版物,在2024年3月10日所有可用的期刊年(从1977年到2024年)。研究详情,包括引文计数,主要内容重点,结果衡量标准,以及心理问卷的使用,从每个出版物中提取并列出。牛津循证医学中心(OCEBM)对每项研究的证据水平(LOE)进行评估。
■确定了关于QoL在基于植入物的重建中引用最多的100种出版物,包括64,192例患者和28,114例重建乳房。每篇出版物的引文范围从62到457(平均值,124.95±73.05),引用次数最多的研究由Al-Ghazal撰写(n=457)。绝大多数出版物是LOEII(n=52),前瞻性队列研究的代表,非随机研究的系统评价,系统评价和荟萃分析。LOEV的出版物数量,IV,III,我分别为0、7、41和0。83种出版物的主要内容重点是"生活质量",显著利用了BREAST-Q问卷。共有80种出版物使用了经过验证的具有心理测量学发展的问卷。
■此分析表明,IBR内部的研究方法主要由中等质量的出版物组成;但是,特别是,我缺乏LOE研究,强调了该领域内高质量研究的差距。此外,只有62/100使用经过验证的PROM工具。未来的IBR研究应该集中在最可靠的方法上,结合经过验证的PROM工具,优化共享决策和知情同意。
UNASSIGNED: Implant-based breast reconstruction (IBR), following mastectomy, significantly impacts patients\' quality of life (QoL), necessitating accurate measurement through psychometrically robust patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) tools. This bibliometric analysis aims to discern trends, identify gaps, and evaluate the use of such tools in the IBR literature.
UNASSIGNED: The 100 most cited publications regarding QoL in implant-based reconstruction were identified on Web of Science, across all available journal years (from 1977 to 2024) on 10 March 2024. Study details, including the citation count, main content focus, outcome measures, and usage of psychological questionnaires, were extracted and tabulated from each publication. The Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) levels of evidence (LOE) of each study were assessed.
UNASSIGNED: The 100 most cited publications on QoL in implant-based reconstruction were identified, encompassing 64,192 patients and 28,114 reconstructed breasts. Citations per publication ranged from 62 to 457 (mean, 124.95 ± 73.05), with the highest-cited study being authored by Al-Ghazal (n = 457). The vast majority of publications were LOE II (n = 52), representative of prospective cohort studies, systematic reviews of non-randomised studies, and systematic review and meta-analysis. The number of publications for LOE V, IV, III, and I was 0, 7, 41, and 0, respectively. The main content focus was \"quality of life\" in 83 publications, with significant utilisation of the BREAST-Q questionnaire. A total of 80 publications used validated questionnaires with psychometric development.
UNASSIGNED: This analysis demonstrates that the research methodologies within IBR mostly consist of moderate-quality publications; however, notably, there was a lack of LOE I studies, underscoring a gap in high-quality research within the field. Moreover, only 62/100 used validated PROM tools. Future IBR research studies should be focussed on most robust methodologies, incorporating validated PROM tools, to optimise shared-decision making and informed consent.
