摘要

神经外科训练和实践在很大程度上依赖于研究，这是学术生产力的关键标志。本研究调查了来自巴基斯坦的神经外科出版物的现状，包括总体研究成果、流行主题以及各机构和地区的差异。电子数据库，包括PubMed、Scopus、Web of Science和ScienceDirect，使用指定的关键词系统地检索到2023年11月1日。从符合条件的文章中提取有关作者、出版年份、隶属关系、文章类型、引文、期刊、影响因子和主题的数据。从成立到2023年11月1日，巴基斯坦共发表了825篇与神经外科相关的文章。从2017年开始，发表的论文数量大幅增加，在2021年达到顶峰，发表了115篇研究论文。共有12篇文章被引用100次以上。大多数出版物是原创文章（n = 592, 71.7%），其次是综述（n = 144, 17.5%），主要集中在脑相关主题（n = 203, 24.6%）、神经肿瘤学（n = 164, 19.8%）、脊柱（n = 145, 17.5%）和创伤（n = 143）。17.3%)。血管神经外科贡献了88项研究，普通神经外科40项，神经放射学28项，功能神经外科14项，儿科神经外科17项。发表论文最多的作者是Shamim MS (n = 89)，其次是Enam SA （n = 51）。JPMA （n = 93）和Surgical Neurology International （n = 71）是排名靠前的期刊。阿迦汗大学和医院是最多产的贡献者，进行了236项原创研究。存在明显的地区差异，缺乏实验研究。虽然近年来巴基斯坦的神经外科出版物大幅增加，但显著的地区差异和挑战仍然存在。解决这些问题对于在国内培养更强大的神经外科研究环境至关重要。

Low Middle Income Countries and Academic Productivity of Neurosurgery: A Quantitative Analysis From Pakistan

Neurosurgical training and practice rely heavily on research, which is a pivotal marker of academic productivity. This study investigates the current landscape of neurosurgery publications originating from Pakistan, encompassing overall research output, prevalent topics, and disparities across institutions and regions. Electronic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect, were systematically searched up to November 1, 2023, using specified keywords. Data pertaining to authors, publication years, affiliations, article types, citations, journals, impact factors, and topics were extracted from eligible articles. From inception till Nov 1, 2023, a total of 825 articles relating to Neurosurgery were published from Pakistan. A significant upsurge in publications occurred from 2017 onwards, reaching its peak in 2021 with 115 studies published. A total of 12 articles had 100 or more citations. The majority of publications were original articles (n = 592, 71.7 %) followed by reviews (n = 144, 17.5 %), predominantly focusing on brain-related topics (n = 203, 24.6 %), neuro-oncology (n = 164, 19.8 %), spine (n = 145, 17.5 %), and trauma (n = 143. 17.3 %). Vascular neurosurgery contributed 88 studies, general neurosurgery 40, neuroradiology 28, functional neurosurgery 14, and pediatric neurosurgery 17. Shamim MS was the top author with the most number of publications (n = 89), followed by Enam SA (n = 51). JPMA (n = 93) and Surgical Neurology International (n = 71) emerged as the top publishing journals. Aga Khan University and Hospital emerged as the most prolific contributor with 236 original studies conducted. There exists notable regional disparities and a lack of experimental studies. While there has been a substantial increase in neurosurgical publications from Pakistan in recent years, significant regional disparities and challenges persist. Addressing these issues is crucial to fostering a more robust research environment in neurosurgery within the country.

期刊介绍： This International journal, Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, publishes articles on clinical neurosurgery and neurology and the related neurosciences such as neuro-pathology, neuro-radiology, neuro-ophthalmology and neuro-physiology. The journal has a broad International perspective, and emphasises the advances occurring in Asia, the Pacific Rim region, Europe and North America. The Journal acts as a focus for publication of major clinical and laboratory research, as well as publishing solicited manuscripts on specific subjects from experts, case reports and other information of interest to clinicians working in the clinical neurosciences.
