Abstract
Background/purpose
The diagnosis and treatment of Sjogren's syndrome (SS) are commonly conducted by rheumatologists and stomatologists. The purpose of this study was to compare the scientometric characteristics of SS publications by rheumatologists and stomatologists.
Materials and methods
All the papers on cheilitis were comprehensively retrieved from the Scopus database, and divided into rheumatologists and stomatologists groups.
Results
There were 3245 and 1209 papers on SS were published by rheumatologists and stomatologists, respectively. For the most-cited top-200 papers, the total citation count was 29,764 and the h index was 108 for SS publications by rheumatologists; whereas the count is 19,891 and h index is 81 for publications by stomatologists. Interestingly, we observed that accumulated citations of the publications by stomatologists cooperated with rheumatologists were larger than those by stomatologists alone during 2012–2022. The more common keywords such as saliva, salivation, minor salivary glands, parotid gland, submandibular gland, sialography, lip, dental caries, and hyposalivation were reported by stomatologists. The more frequent keywords such as rheumatoid factor, fatigue, lymphoma, interstitial lung disease, arthralgia, Raynaud phenomenon, lymphadenopathy, and vasculitis were reported by rheumatologists.
Conclusion
This study firstly reports the scientometric characteristics of SS publications by rheumatologists and stomatologists. The scale and citations of rheumatologists' publications greatly outweigh those of stomatologists, suggesting stomatologists can cooperate more with rheumatologists regarding SS research.
期刊介绍：
he Journal of Dental Sciences (JDS), published quarterly, is the official and open access publication of the Association for Dental Sciences of the Republic of China (ADS-ROC). The precedent journal of the JDS is the Chinese Dental Journal (CDJ) which had already been covered by MEDLINE in 1988. As the CDJ continued to prove its importance in the region, the ADS-ROC decided to move to the international community by publishing an English journal. Hence, the birth of the JDS in 2006. The JDS is indexed in the SCI Expanded since 2008. It is also indexed in Scopus, and EMCare, ScienceDirect, SIIC Data Bases.
The topics covered by the JDS include all fields of basic and clinical dentistry. Some manuscripts focusing on the study of certain endemic diseases such as dental caries and periodontal diseases in particular regions of any country as well as oral pre-cancers, oral cancers, and oral submucous fibrosis related to betel nut chewing habit are also considered for publication. Besides, the JDS also publishes articles about the efficacy of a new treatment modality on oral verrucous hyperplasia or early oral squamous cell carcinoma.
