摘要
研究背景和目的:中低收入国家(LMIC)的耳鼻喉科研究人员在研究和出版方面存在明显障碍。这可能反映在中低收入国家的期刊特点和研究中,而这方面的研究还从未有过。我们旨在描述高收入国家(HIC)期刊与中低收入国家(LMIC)期刊在数量、地理分布、出版成本、影响力、文章数量、引用率和影响因子方面的差异:我们收录了三大期刊数据库中 "耳鼻喉科 "类别下的期刊。我们从期刊网站上收集了与财务模式、豁免政策、访问和发行相关的数据。此外,我们还从 Clarivate Journal Citation Reports 2022 中收集了以下期刊指标:总文章数、总引用数、期刊引用指标、期刊影响因子(JIF)、5 年 JIF 和不含自引的 JIF:79.7%的高收入国家期刊提供英文编辑服务,而低收入国家期刊的这一比例为25.0%。此外,40.0% 的高收入国家和地区期刊完全开放获取,而低收入国家和地区的这一比例为 92.0%。低收入与中等收入国家的期刊指标较低,包括2022篇平均总文章数(107篇高收入与中等收入国家 vs. 60篇低收入与中等收入国家)、总被引次数(4296次 vs. 751次)、期刊被引指标(0.88 vs. 0.35)和期刊影响因子(12.68 vs. 0.82):我们发现高收入国家期刊与低收入国家期刊在发行、英文编辑服务和期刊指标方面存在巨大差异。这些差异可能会给低收入和中等收入国家的出版和研究人员带来潜在的障碍。为支持低收入与中等收入国家的研究,未来的工作应评估增加低收入与中等收入国家耳鼻喉科期刊数量、扩大开放出版、改善语言服务以及提高低收入与中等收入国家研究影响力的机会。
A Comparative Analysis of Otolaryngology Journal Characteristics and Metrics Across World Bank Income Groups.
Study background and aims: There are marked barriers to research and publishing for low- and middle- income country (LMIC) ENT researchers. This could be reflected in LMIC journal characteristics and research, which has never been investigated. We aim to characterize differences in the number, geographic distribution, publishing costs, reach, number of articles, citations, and impact factors of high-income country (HIC) journals compared to LMIC journals.
Methods: We included journals listed under the category "Otorhinolaryngology' in three major journal databases. From journal websites, we collected data related to financial model, waiver policy, access, and distribution. Additionally, from the Clarivate Journal Citation Reports 2022, we collected the following journal metrics: total articles, total citations, journal citation indicator, journal impact factor (JIF), 5-year JIF, and JIF without self cites.
Results: 79.7% HIC journals offered English editing services, compared with 25.0% of LMIC journals. Additionally, 40.0% of HIC journals are solely open access compared with 92.0% in LMICs. Lower journal metrics were seen in LMIC journals, including 2022 mean total articles (107 HICs vs. 60 LMICs), total citations (4296 vs. 751), journal citation indicator (0.88 vs. 0.35), and journal impact factor (12.68 vs. 0.82).
Conclusion: We have identified substantial differences in the distribution, English editing services, and journal metrics of HIC journals compared to LMIC journals. These may point to potential barriers to publishing and research access for those in LMICs. To support LMIC research, future work should evaluate opportunities to increase the number of ENT journals in LMICs, expand open access publishing, improve access to language services, and increase LMIC research impact.
期刊介绍:
Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery was founded as Indian Journal of Otolaryngology in 1949 as a scientific Journal published by the Association of Otolaryngologists of India and was later rechristened as IJOHNS to incorporate the changes and progress.
IJOHNS, undoubtedly one of the oldest Journals in India, is the official publication of the Association of Otolaryngologists of India and is about to publish it is 67th Volume in 2015. The Journal published quarterly accepts articles in general Oto-Rhino-Laryngology and various subspecialities such as Otology, Rhinology, Laryngology and Phonosurgery, Neurotology, Head and Neck Surgery etc.
The Journal acts as a window to showcase and project the clinical and research work done by Otolaryngologists community in India and around the world. It is a continued source of useful clinical information with peer review by eminent Otolaryngologists of repute in their respective fields. The Journal accepts articles pertaining to clinical reports, Clinical studies, Research articles in basic and applied Otolaryngology, short Communications, Clinical records reporting unusual presentations or lesions and new surgical techniques. The journal acts as a catalyst and mirrors the Indian Otolaryngologist’s active interests and pursuits. The Journal also invites articles from senior and experienced authors on interesting topics in Otolaryngology and allied sciences from all over the world.
The print version is distributed free to about 4000 members of Association of Otolaryngologists of India and the e-Journal shortly going to make its appearance on the Springer Board can be accessed by all the members.
Association of Otolaryngologists of India and M/s Springer India group have come together to co-publish IJOHNS from January 2007 and this bondage is going to provide an impetus to the Journal in terms of international presence and global exposure.
