The Top Hundred Papers of Uveitis Research. A Bibliometric Analysis

Authored by Andreas Frings*

To identify and evaluate the 100 most frequently cited articles containing uveitis research. Utilizing Databases, specifically of the Institute for Scientific Information, we recognized all issued articles relevant to the topic of uveitis research. All articles containing uveitis research, a publication date ranging from 1900 to September 2016, and had been cited at least 100 times, were included. The top 100 of that list matching the criteria from the above were then further analyzed. Out of the 100 most-cited articles the most cited one in uveitis research with 923 citations was entitled Standardization of uveitis nomenclature for reporting clinical data. A result of the First International Workshop (Jabs et al.). Citations ranged from 106 to 923 and the two main focus areas were clinical and basic research articles. The leading countries of origin were the U.S. followed by the United Kingdom. Most articles represented Level-III evidence, followed by Level IIb and IV. Our present study demonstrates that the majority (n= 54) of the top ranked articles were published in six of the top ranked journals. Four of these journals originated in the U.S. and one each of these originated in the Netherlands and the U.K. Younger case studies had higher citation rate (in 2015) as older studies. The biggest portion of articles represented Level -III clinical outcome studies implicating that even smaller case series or cohort studies could gain attention.
