Item Research productivity in the genetics of papillary thyroid carcinoma (1991-2020): a bibliometric analysis(2022) Al Hamad, Mohammad; Lasrado, Savita; Albarbari, Hassan S.; Waris, Abu; Mohammad Abdelqader Al hamad; Khan, Muhammad Ajmal; Muhammed Ajmal Khan; Mohiuddin, Shamim Shaikh; Parmar, Rupesh; Zeidan, Nehal A.; Al-Qassab, Aqilah T.; Menezes, Ritesh G.<p><em>Background and aim:</em> Papillary thyroid carcinoma accounts for 85% of thyroid follicular epithelial-derived cancers. The identification of pathogenetic mechanisms improved the understating of papillary thyroid carcinoma pathogenesis. The current study aims to examine the research productivity and trends in the genetics of papillary thyroid carcinoma from 1991 to 2020.</p><p><em>Methods:</em> The Web of Science Core Collection database was searched to retrieve the relevant literature. A search string was applied and 1,741 relevant records were selected for the analysis. Bibliometric techniques were used in the statistical analysis with the help of Biblioshiny (RStudio).</p><p><em>Results:</em> The growth in the number of publications was observed to be over a hundred publications per year since 2015. ‘Thyroid’ published the highest number of publications, followed by ‘Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism’. ‘Nikiforov YE’ was identified as the most productive researcher with a total of 49 publications. Out of the top 20 most contributing researchers, seven belonged to Italy, and four were from the USA. ‘University of Pittsburgh’ contributed the highest number of publications. The top contributing countries in this field were the USA, China, and Italy. BRAF and RAS were among the frequently used keywords.</p><p><em>Conclusions</em>: This bibliometric review demonstrates that investigating the genetics underlying papillary thyroid carcinoma is a rapidly growing area of research. During the last two decades, China has been a significant contributor to the field. Besides, institutions in USA and Italy have significantly contributed to research in the genetics of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Owaidah; Ritesh George Menezes; Mohammed Madadin; Abu Waris Mohammed Abbu Khashay; Muhammed Ajmal KhanThis paper aims to examine the worldwide research development and trends in forensic anthropology by using bibliometric analysis. Scopus database was used to identify published papers on forensic anthropology from 1948 to 2020. A total of 4,499 records were analyzed for yearly publication productivity, authorship and citation pattern, types of documents, most productive journals, organizations, authors, and countries, frequently cited papers, most used keywords, countries of collaboration, and three-field plot analysis in the domain of forensic anthropology. The results indicated that the highest grand total publications were between the years 2016 and 2019, while the highest multi-authored publications were in the year 2018. The most productive journal, author, organization, and country were the ‘Journal of Forensic Sciences’ with grand total publications of 934, ‘Cattaneo, C.’ with 97 publications, ‘Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique’ with 130 publications, and the United States with 1020 total cited papers, respectively. The document with the highest number of citations was ‘Buckberry and Chamberlain, 2002, Am J Phys Anthropol’ with a total of 387. Three-field plot analysis regarding the most outstanding keyword-source-country was “Forensic anthropology”- “Journal of Forensic Sciences” and “Forensic Science International”- “USA”, “France”, and “UK”. The predomination of certain countries over others in the field of forensic anthropology limits its prosperity as ethnic variety is of important regard. Research collaborations were mainly observed between the United States and European countries, which highlights the need for strengthening collaborations between developed and developing nations.
