Abstract

The primary objective of this study was to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the most influential papers on ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). Using the Scopus database (October 2024), a targeted search was performed to identify relevant publications. Three retrieval options were considered based on the appearance of search terms. Precisely those documents were analyzed where the search terms appeared only in the title, allowing for a focused analysis of the most directly relevant studies. Next, from this search, the top 100 most cited papers, spanning from 1981 to 2018, were selected for detailed examination. Data analysis was conducted using VOSviewer and R Studio to provide insights into publication trends, author productivity, and the thematic focus of STEMI research. Author performance was evaluated through various bibliometric indicators, including total publications (TP), total citations (TC), h-index, g-index, m-index, HG composite, and Q2 index. Key metrics such as mean total citations per article (MeanTCperArt) and mean annual citation rate (MeanTCperYear) were also calculated. Thematic analysis of research topics was conducted using unigrams, bigrams, and trigrams, highlighting primary areas of focus across the most impactful STEMI studies. The results underscore significant trends in STEMI research, with highly cited papers shaping the field's evolution. This bibliometric approach provides valuable insights into research patterns, major contributors, and prevalent themes within STEMI literature.

对 1933 年至 2023 年 ST 波抬高型心肌梗死研究的文献计量分析：关注被引用次数最多的 100 篇文章。

本研究的主要目的是对ST段抬高型心肌梗死（STEMI）方面最有影响力的论文进行文献计量分析。我们使用 Scopus 数据库（2024 年 10 月）进行了有针对性的检索，以确定相关出版物。根据检索词的外观，考虑了三种检索方案。首先，对检索词仅出现在标题中的文献进行精确分析，以便对最直接相关的研究进行重点分析。接下来，从这一搜索中选出了引用次数最多的前 100 篇论文（时间跨度从 1981 年到 2018 年）进行详细研究。我们使用 VOSviewer 和 R Studio 进行了数据分析，以深入了解发表趋势、作者生产力和 STEMI 研究的主题重点。作者的表现通过各种文献计量指标进行评估，包括总发表量（TP）、总引用量（TC）、h指数、g指数、m指数、HG综合指数和Q2指数。此外，还计算了每篇文章的平均总被引次数（MeanTCperArt）和平均年被引率（MeanTCperYear）等关键指标。研究主题的专题分析使用了单词、双词和三词，突出了最具影响力的 STEMI 研究的主要关注领域。结果强调了 STEMI 研究的重要趋势，其中高被引论文影响着该领域的发展。这种文献计量学方法为了解 STEMI 文献中的研究模式、主要贡献者和流行主题提供了宝贵的见解。

期刊介绍： Under the editorial leadership of noted cardiologist Dr. Hector O. Ventura, Current Problems in Cardiology provides focused, comprehensive coverage of important clinical topics in cardiology. Each monthly issues, addresses a selected clinical problem or condition, including pathophysiology, invasive and noninvasive diagnosis, drug therapy, surgical management, and rehabilitation; or explores the clinical applications of a diagnostic modality or a particular category of drugs. Critical commentary from the distinguished editorial board accompanies each monograph, providing readers with additional insights. An extensive bibliography in each issue saves hours of library research.
