Abstract

Purpose: The spine research within India has seen significant advancement, yet detailed examinations of its impact and evolution still need to be made sparse. To conduct a comprehensive scientometric review of the most frequently cited papers in Indian spine research from 1995 to 2024, aiming to map the field's evolution and its global impact.

Methods: Utilizing the Scopus database, a search was performed with keywords related to spine research, identifying 105 highly cited papers. This study focused on trends in publications, document types, affiliations, collaboration networks, and citation patterns.

Results: The period between 2005 and 2014 saw a significant increase in publications, with a notable emphasis on international collaborations, especially with the United States and Canada. Clinical research, particularly on the lumbar spine and surgical advancements, emerged as the primary focus. The average citations per document stood at 102.37, with original research articles constituting 73.33% of the total. Collaboration spanned across 31 countries, with the United States being the foremost partner. Indian institutions like Ganga Hospital, Coimbatore, and the All India Institute of Medical Science, New Delhi, were among the top contributors. Indian authors, notably with S. Rajasekaran leading, followed by AK Jain.

Conclusion: The findings highlght the pivotal role of Indian spine research in contributing to the global knowledge base, highlighting significant areas of strength and opportunities for future research. The study offers valuable insights for researchers, policymakers, and healthcare planners, aiming to enhance spinal health care in India and internationally.

印度脊柱研究中高被引论文的科学计量分析（1995-2024）：导航影响。

目的：脊柱研究在印度已经取得了重大进展，但其影响和演变的详细检查仍然需要稀疏。对1995年至2024年印度脊柱研究中最常被引用的论文进行全面的科学计量学综述，旨在绘制该领域的演变及其全球影响。方法：利用Scopus数据库检索与脊柱研究相关的关键词，检索到105篇高被引论文。本研究聚焦于出版物、文献类型、隶属关系、协作网络和引用模式的趋势。结果：2005年至2014年期间，出版物数量显著增加，特别强调国际合作，特别是与美国和加拿大的合作。临床研究，特别是腰椎和外科手术的进展，成为主要焦点。论文平均被引次数为102.37次，其中原创研究论文占总被引次数的73.33%。合作涉及31个国家，美国是最重要的合作伙伴。位于哥印拜陀的恒河医院（Ganga Hospital）和新德里的全印度医学科学研究所（All India Institute of Medical Science）等印度机构是贡献最多的机构之一。印度作家，以S. Rajasekaran为首，其次是AK Jain。结论：研究结果突出了印度脊柱研究在为全球知识库做出贡献方面的关键作用，突出了未来研究的重要优势和机会。该研究为研究人员、政策制定者和医疗保健规划者提供了有价值的见解，旨在加强印度和国际上的脊柱保健。

期刊介绍： International Orthopaedics, the Official Journal of the Société Internationale de Chirurgie Orthopédique et de Traumatologie (SICOT) , publishes original papers from all over the world. The articles deal with clinical orthopaedic surgery or basic research directly connected with orthopaedic surgery. International Orthopaedics will also link all the members of SICOT by means of an insert that will be concerned with SICOT matters. Finally, it is expected that news and information regarding all aspects of orthopaedic surgery, including meetings, panels, instructional courses, etc. will be brought to the attention of the readers. Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been approved by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted. Reports of animal experiments must state that the "Principles of laboratory animal care" (NIH publication No. 85-23, revised 1985) were followed, as well as specific national laws (e.g. the current version of the German Law on the Protection of Animals) where applicable. The editors reserve the right to reject manuscripts that do not comply with the above-mentioned requirements. The author will be held responsible for false statements or for failure to fulfil the above-mentioned requirements.
