Background
There have been few attempts to identify classic papers within the hand surgery literature. This study used citation analysis to identify and characterize the top 50 highly cited hand surgery articles published in six peer-reviewed journals.Methods
The 50 most highly cited hand surgery articles were identified in the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (JBJS) American, JBJS British, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Journal of Hand Surgery (JHS) American, JHS British/European, and Hand. Articles were evaluated for citations per year, surgical/anatomical topic, and type of study. Clinical studies were further sub-categorized by level of evidence. The distribution of topics was compared with all indexed hand surgery articles. The educational relevance was assessed via comparison with lists of “classic” papers.Results
The most common subjects were distal radius fracture, carpal tunnel syndrome, and flexor tendon repair. There was moderate correlation between the distribution of these topics and all indexed hand surgery articles (rho = 0.71). There were 31 clinical studies, of which 16 were therapeutic, ten were prognostic, and five were diagnostic. These articles assessed the outcomes of an intervention, described an anatomical/functional observation, introduced an innovation, presented a discovery/classification, or validated a questionnaire. There were only three randomized trials. Using citations per year to control for the influence of time since publication, 36 articles were consistently highly cited. Twenty-three articles were on Stern’s Selected Readings in Hand Surgery, considered important in education.Conclusions
The top 50 highly cited articles in hand surgery reflect the most common clinical, scientific, and educational efforts of the field. 相似文献2.

Background
Citation analysis has been widely used to evaluate the impact of articles in medical and surgical specialties. Although China is the most populous country in the world, and although more than 50,000 orthopaedic surgeons practice there, to our knowledge no formal citation analysis of Chinese orthopaedic articles has been performed.Questions/purposes
We identified the 50 most-cited orthopaedic articles from mainland China and evaluated these articles in terms of their language of publication, source journals, and topics.Methods
Science Citation Index Expanded was searched in July 31, 2014 for citations of articles published in 70 selected journals since the inception of the database. The 50 most-cited orthopaedic articles originating in mainland China were identified. Basic information, including title, authors, year of publication, article type, journal in which the work was published, city, institution, number of citations, decade published, and topic or subspecialty of the research were recorded.Results
The number of citations for the top 50 papers ranged from 181 to 31 (mean, 52). These articles were published between 1981 and 2010. The decade of 2000 to 2009 was the most prolific, with 36 of the top 50 articles published during this time. All articles were written in English and they were published in a total of 16 journals. The journal Spine published the largest number of articles (12), followed by Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research® (seven). The journal Lancet had the highest impact factor (39.207 for 2013) among any of the journals that published articles we identified. The top 50 articles originated mainly from Beijing (16) and Shanghai (12), with basic research being the focus of the majority (27 of 50; 54%); the remaining were clinical studies. Bone was the most-investigated topic in basic research; the spine was the most-common topic among the identified clinical studies.Conclusions
The 50 most-cited articles that we identified should be considered influential, although a large gap remains between mainland China and the global orthopaedic community in terms of citations per article. Nevertheless, insofar as the most-recent decade of our survey generated the most articles in this top-50 list, we would characterize mainland China’s effect on musculoskeletal research as increasing, and as funding increases to programs in mainland China, we anticipate this trend will continue in the future. 相似文献3.

Purpose
Advertisements are commonplace in orthopaedic journals and may influence the readership with claims of clinical and scientific fact. Since the last assessment of the claims made in orthopaedic print advertisements ten years ago, there have been legislative changes and media scrutiny which have shaped this practice. The purpose of this study is to re-evaluate these claims.Methods
Fifty claims from 50 advertisements were chosen randomly from six highly respected peer-reviewed orthopaedic journals (published July–December 2011). The evidence supporting each claim was assessed and validated by three orthopaedic surgeons. The assessors, blinded to product and company, rated the evidence and answered the following questions: Does the evidence as presented support the claim made in the advertisement and what is the quality of that evidence? Is the claim supported by enough evidence to influence your own clinical practice?Results
Twenty-eight claims cited evidence from published literature, four from public presentations, 11 from manufacturer "data held on file" and seven had no supporting evidence. Only 12 claims were considered to have high-quality evidence and only 11 were considered well supported. A strong correlation was seen between the quality of evidence and strength of support (Spearman r = 0.945, p < 0.0001). The average ICC between the assessors’ ratings was strong (r = 0.85) giving validity to the results.Conclusion
Orthopaedic surgeons must remain sceptical about the claims made in print advertisements. High-quality evidence is required by orthopaedic surgeons to influence clinical practice and this evidence should be sought by manufacturers wishing to market a successful product. 相似文献4.

Purpose
The impact factors (IF) of orthopaedic journals is an important component in determining the future of orthopaedic research funding. We aim to characterise the trend in journal IF over the last decade and draw comparisons with other surgical specialties.Methods
We conducted an analysis of impact factors from Journal Citation Reports between 2000 and 2010.Results
Between 2000 and 2010 the number of orthopaedic journals increased from 24 to 41, more than any other surgical specialty and the mean IF increased from 0.842 to 1.400. Journals printed in the English language had a significantly higher IF in the year 2010 (1.64 vs. 0.33, p = 0.01) than those printed in other languages. English language journals published in the US had significantly higher mean 2010 IF (1.932 vs. 1.243, p = 0.025) than those published in Europe, and this had changed compared with 2000 mean IF (0.978 Vs. 0.704, p = 0.360). Orthopaedics was ranked sixth out of 11 surgical subspecialties in 2000 but dropped to seventh out of 11 in 2010.Conclusions
The quality of orthopaedic journals has significantly increased over the last decade and this has been accompanied by a rise in mean IF. It is important that orthopaedics continues to improve the quality of research, which may help orthopaedic researchers secure funding in the future. 相似文献5.

Background
Military orthopaedic surgeons have published a substantial amount of original research based on our care of combat-wounded service members and related studies during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, to our knowledge, the influence of this body of work has not been evaluated bibliometrically, and doing so is important to determine the modern impact of combat casualty research in the wider medical community.Questions/purposes
We sought to identify the 20 most commonly cited works from military surgeons published during the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts and analyze them to answer the following questions: (1) What were the subject areas of these 20 articles and what was the 2013 Impact Factor of each journal that published them? (2) How many citations did they receive and what were the characteristics of the journals that cited them? (3) Do the citation analysis results obtained from Google Scholar mirror the results obtained from Thompson-Reuters’ Web of Science?Methods
We searched the Web of Science Citation Index Expanded for relevant original research performed by US military orthopaedic surgeons related to Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom between 2001 and 2014. Articles citing these studies were reviewed using both Web of Science and Google Scholar data. The 20 most cited articles meeting inclusion criteria were identified and analyzed by content domain, frequency of citation, and sources in which they were cited.Results
Nine of these studies examined the epidemiology and outcome of combat injury. Six studies dealt with wound management, wound dehiscence, and formation of heterotopic ossification. Five studies examined infectious complications of combat trauma. The median number of citations garnered by these 20 articles was 41 (range, 28–264) in Web of Science. Other research citing these studies has appeared in 279 different journals, covering 26 different medical and surgical subspecialties, from authors in 31 different countries. Google Scholar contained 97% of the Web of Science citations, but also had 31 duplicate entries and 29 citations with defective links.Conclusions
Modern combat casualty research by military orthopaedic surgeons is widely cited by researchers in a diverse range of subspecialties and geographic locales. This suggests that the military continues to be a source of innovation that is broadly applicable to civilian medical and surgical practice and should encourage expansion of military-civilian collaboration to maximize the utility of the knowledge gained in the treatment of war trauma.Level of Evidence
Level IV, therapeutic study. 相似文献7.

Background
We identified and analyzed the characteristics of the 100 most frequently cited articles published between 1965 and 2007 in journals pertaining to urology and related fields.Methods
We selected 69 of the highest impact urology and sub-specialty journals and 22 of the highest impact general medical and medical research journals from the 2006 edition of Journal Citation Reports: Science edition. We identified the 100 most frequently cited urological articles published in these 91 journals using the Science Citation Index Expanded (1965–present). We reviewed and analyzed the articles.Results
The top 100 articles were cited a mean of 629 times (range 418–1435) and published between 1965 and 2003, with 89% published after 1979 and 54% published in the 1990s. Fifteen journals were represented, led by The New England Journal of Medicine (30), The Journal of Urology (22) and Lancet (11). Ninety publications originated from North America (81) or the United Kingdom (9). Johns Hopkins University (13), Harvard University (5), Stanford University (5) and University of California, Los Angeles (5) published the most articles. Five urologists were first authors of 2 or more of the articles. Fifty-six articles reported observational studies. Oncology (51) and transplantation (20) were the most commonly represented urological subfields.Conclusion
These top-cited articles in urology identify topics and authors that contributed to major advances in urology. Observational studies and randomized controlled trials in oncology published in high-impact urological or medical journals constitute the most common type of highly cited publications. 相似文献8.

Background
Since 2003 many orthopaedic journals have adopted grading systems for levels of evidence (LOE). It is unclear if the quality of orthopaedic literature has changed since LOE was introduced.Questions/purposes
We asked three questions: (1) Have the overall number and proportion of Level I and II studies increased in the orthopaedic literature since the introduction of LOE? (2) Is a similar pattern seen in individual orthopaedic subspecialty journals? (3) What is the interobserver reliability of grading LOE?Methods
We assigned LOE to therapeutic studies published in 2000, 2005, and 2010 in eight major orthopaedic subspecialty journals. Number and proportion of Level I and II publications were determined. Data were evaluated using log-linear models. Twenty-six reviewers (13 residents and 13 attendings) graded LOE of 20 blinded therapeutic articles from the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery for 2009. Interobserver agreement relative to the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery was assessed using a weighted kappa.Results
The total number of Level I and II publications in subspecialty journals increased from 150 in 2000 to 239 in 2010. The proportion of high-quality publications increased with time (p < 0.001). All subspecialty journals other than the Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics and the Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma showed a similar behavior. Average weighted kappa was 0.791 for residents and 0.842 for faculty (p = 0.209).Conclusions
The number and proportion of Level I and II publications have increased. LOE can be graded reliably with high interobserver agreement. The number and proportion of high-level studies should continue to increase. 相似文献9.

Background
Although the references recommended for the Orthopaedic In-Training Examination (OITE) have been evaluated in certain subspecialty domains, suggested reference level of evidence (LOE), impact factor, and citation age have not been evaluated comprehensively to our knowledge.Questions/purposes
We present an analysis of all references cited in the OITE recommended readings for each test question including the duration of time between their initial publication and their use in the OITE, which we defined as citation age, LOE, and the impact factor of the journals referenced.Methods
We evaluated all references for the 2010 to 2012 OITE administrations (three examinations; 825 questions total). Publication characteristics, including citation age, were noted. The LOE for each journal article and the impact factor of each journal were determined; differences in LOE and impact factor were compared between test sections. A total of 1817 references were cited in the 825 questions we evaluated; this denominator was used in all calculations that follow.Results
The recommended reading references included 1337 journal article references (74%), 469 text references (26%), and 11 multimedia sources (0.6%; eg, websites, instructional DVDs). The three most commonly recommended journals were general orthopaedic journals, TheJournal of Bone and Joint Surgery (American Volume), Journal of American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, and Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research®. The majority (72.2%) of the cited journal references were published within 10 years of the test date, with a mean ± SD citation age of 8.3 ± 7.4 years. The majority of the cited journal articles were Levels IV and V evidence (mean, 4.16 ± 1.1). The Spine section had higher LOE (3.74; p < 0.001), although the practical relevance of such a difference is questionable, as all but two sections’ LOE rounded to Level IV evidence. The Spine and Basic Science sections were published in journals with a larger mean impact factor (Basic Science, 7.16 ± 12.67; Spine, 5.73 ± 12.08; p < 0.001).Conclusions
Our data show that the majority of the recommended readings for the OITE stem from higher impact general orthopaedic and major subspecialty journals. Furthermore the observed mean LOE of the recommended readings shows a preponderance of Levels IV and V research. These data may suggest that test-takers may find benefit in the review of high-level general orthopaedic journals, and review articles in particular while preparing for the OITE, although further study is necessary to determine optimal test preparation strategies. Finally, our study provides a baseline analysis of the study designs of OITE recommended references, and may provide insight for educators designing resident educational curricula.Electronic supplementary material

Purpose
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common complication of orthopaedic surgery in the industrialised world; though there may be variability between population groups. This study aims to define the incidence and risk factors for symptomatic VTE following primary elective total hip and knee arthoplasty surgery in a single centre in Eastern Europe.Methods
This prospective study included 499 adult patients undergoing total hip and knee arthroplasty for symptomatic osteoarthritis over a two-year period at the Clinic of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, Belgrade.Results
The overall rate of confirmed symptomatic VTE during hospitalisation was 2.6%. According to the univariate logistic regression, an age greater than 75 years (OR = 3.08; 95%CI = 1.01–9.65), a family history of VTE (OR = 6.61; 95% CI = 1.33–32.90), varicose veins (OR = 3.13; 95% CI = 1.03–9.48), and ischemic heart disease (OR = 4.93; 95% CI = 1.61–15.09) were significant risk factors for in-hospital VTE. A family history of VTE and ischemic heart disease were independent risk factors according to multivariate regression analysis. Preoperative initiation of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis (p = 0.03) and a longer duration of thromboprophylaxis (p = 0.001) were protective for postoperative DVT. Though thromboprophylaxis was safe, with very few patients suffering major haemorrhage or heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, there was a general reluctance by our local surgeons to use prolonged thromboprophylaxis.Conclusion
VTE is common following hip and knee arthroplasty surgery. Orthopaedic patients with a family history of VTE, heart failure and coronary heart disease are at a considerable risk of thromboembolic complications in the postoperative period. There may be a role for preoperative thromboprophylaxis in addition to prolonged postoperative treatment. 相似文献11.

Introduction
We investigated the liver transplantation literature since 1975 and found the most frequently cited 100 articles and assessed the distribution of authors and journals of these articles.Method
Using the advanced mode of the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) Web of Science (WOS) search engine, the words “SU = transplantation AND TI = liver OR SU = transplantation AND TS = liver” were used to scan articles and determine the most-cited 100 articles on July 18, 2016.Results
From 1975 to date, it appears a total of 43,369 articles were published in the field of liver transplantation in the WOS. Although the most cited article had 677 citations, the least cited article had 180 citations. The mean citation number for the 100 articles was 252.31 ± 96.75. The mean annual citation number for the articles varied from 61.55 to 5 and the mean was 15.31 ± 8.63. The most cited article was by Feng et al “Characteristics Associated With Liver Graft Failure: The Concept of a Donor Risk Index” published in the American Journal of Transplantation (677 citations).Conclusion
Bibliometric analysis highlights the key topics and publications that have shaped the understanding and management of liver transplantation. According to our research, this is the first study to investigate articles with most citations in the field of liver transplantation. In our study the article with the most citations was cited 677 times, whereas the 100th article was cited 180 times with a mean citation number for the 100 articles of 252.31 ± 96.75. 相似文献12.
Purpose
Hip perforation is a major complication in proximal femoral nailing. For biaxial nails, knowledge of their biomechanics is limited. Besides re-evaluation of accepted risk factors like the tip–apex distance (TAD), we analysed the influence of anti-rotational pin length.Methods
We compared 22 hip perforation cases to 50 randomly chosen controls. TAD, lag-screw position, angle between lag-screw and femoral neck axis, lag-screw gliding capacity, displacement and anti-rotational pin length were investigated.Results
Hip perforation was associated with a higher angle of deviation between lag-screw and femoral neck axis (p = 0.001), a lower telescoping capacity of the lag screw (p = 0.02), and higher TAD (p = 0.048). If the anti-rotational pin exceeded a line connecting the tip of the nail and the lag screw (NS line), hip perforation incidence was increased (p = 0.009). Inadequate pin length resulted in an odds ratio of 10.8 for hip perforation (p = 0.001).Conclusions
In biaxial nails anti-rotational element positioning is underestimated, however, crucial. 相似文献13.

Purpose
Osteitis condensans Ilii (OCI) is an orthopaedic mystery until now and the refractory type poses a great challenge in its management. Surgical resection and sacroiliac arthrodesis are major procedures with no guarantee of success for an unknown disease entity with a normal sacroiliac joint. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate results of a novel mini-invasive surgical approach for the refractory type after failure of conservative management.Materials and Methods
Fourteen females were included with an average age 35.5 ± 5.8 years. Nine cases were multiparous and five were nulliparous. The pathology was bilateral in all cases; however, seven cases suffered bilateral symptoms, while seven cases had only unilateral complaints. Preoperative computed tomography was mandatory. All cases had three to five percutaneous iliac core decompressions through a cannulated drill bit. The Bath ankylosing spondylitis functional index (BASFI) was used for functional outcome evaluation.Results
The mean follow up was 23.3 ± 4.1 months. The mean BASFI improved from 3.7 ± 0.6 preoperatively to 1.3 ± 0.2 during follow up (P = <0.001). There was a significant improvement with the four drillings over five decompression drillings (P = 0.011). Sacral side sclerosis was associated significantly (P = 0.009) with less improvement. No relapse or substantial complications were encountered.Conclusions
This novel approach can be of great benefit for refractory OCI cases with almost no added morbidity or complications. It has advantages of the mini-invasive techniques in addition to sparing the physiological functions of the affected sacroiliac joints. 相似文献14.

Purpose
Pre-operative donation of autologous blood has been widely used in elective joint replacement procedures to avoid the risks of allogeneic blood transfusions. However, the high percentage of wasted autologous blood questions the general efficacy of pre-operative autologous blood donation (PABD) for all patients undergoing hip replacement. This study prospectively investigates the impact of a targeted pre-operative autologous blood donation protocol for anaemic patients on allogeneic and overall transfusion rates in 2,350 unilateral primary total hip arthroplasty procedures.Methods
Patients with pre-operative haemoglobin less than 12.5 g/dL were advised to donate one unit of autologous blood seven to 15 days prior to the date of surgery. The targeted protocol was followed by 2,251 patients: 280 out of 367 anaemic patients donated while 1,971 out of 1,983 non-anaemic patients did not donate.Results
Results showed a significantly lower rate of allogeneic transfusion for anaemic patients who predonated than anaemic patients who did not (13 % vs. 37 % respectively, p < 0.001). Overall transfusion rates for patients who followed the protocol (n = 2,251) were found to be 0.17 units/patient compared to previously reported numbers of 0.75 units/patient when routine donation was used. Among the 2,251 patients who followed the protocol, only 140 patients (6 %) had their autologous blood wasted, in contrast to values reported in the literature ranging from 14 % up to 50 %.Conclusions
Targeted PABD reduces the need for allogeneic blood transfusion in anaemic patients and significantly reduces the overall number of transfusions compared to routine pre-operative autologous donation. 相似文献15.

Purpose
Vitamin D is increasingly being recognized as an important mediator of immune function and may have a preventive role in the pathogenesis of periprosthetic joint infection. To the best of our knowledge, no other study has examined possible associations between periprosthetic joint infection and vitamin D deficiency. We investigated the rate of vitamin D deficiency in patients treated for periprosthetic joint infection and whether vitamin D deficiency is independent of other risk factors for vitamin D deficiency in patients with periprosthetic joint infection.Methods
Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels of every patient scheduled to receive a total prosthesis either of the hip, knee, or shoulder in the orthopaedic department of the Johannes-Guttenberg-University Hospital in Mainz, Germany (109 patients), were measured after admission. Furthermore, serum 25OHD levels were measured for every patient presenting with periprosthetic joint infection (n = 50) or aseptic loosening of the prosthesis (n = 31) scheduled to undergo revision surgery. The prevalence of normal (>30 ng/ml), insufficient (20–30 ng/ml), and deficient (<20 ng/ml) 25OHD levels was determined.Results
All tested patient subgroups showed low vitamin D levels. Statistical analysis found no significant difference in vitamin D levels comparing patients with prosthesis and patients with aseptic prosthesis loosening (p = 0.58). Significant differences in 25OHD levels were found comparing patients with periprosthetic joint infection and patients scheduled for primary arthroplasty (p < 0.001). In addition, we found a significant difference (p < 0,001) in 25OHD levels of patients with periprosthetic joint infection compared with patients with aseptic prosthesis loosening.Conclusion
We found a high frequency of vitamin D deficiency in patients being treated by primary arthroplasty and those with aseptic joint prosthetic loosening and periprosthetic joint infection. Vitamin D deficiency was severe in patients with periprosthetic joint infection. 相似文献16.

Purpose
We evaluated radiographic fusion at follow-up and complication rates in patients who had either iliac crest (ICBG) or femoral reamer–irrigator–aspirator (RIA) bone graft for tibiotalar fusion.Methods
We retrospectively reviewed charts and radiographs of all patients who had a tibiotalar fusion from August 2007 to February 2011. Records were analysed for patient demographics, complications, and clinical symptoms. Radiographs were reviewed in sequential order by two fellowship-trained foot and ankle surgeons and one orthopaedic surgeon who specialises in foot and ankle surgery to determine radiographic fusion at routine follow-up. Patients were contacted to determine current visual analog scores (VAS) at their graft site.Results
Mean patient age was 49.4 ± 12.1 years in the RIA group and 49.3 ± 15.4 years in the ICBG group (p = .97). Pre-operative characteristics showed no significant differences between groups. The ICBG group had significantly more nonunions than the RIA group (six vs. one, p = 0.04). Two patients in the ICBG had chronic pain at their graft site based on their VAS score; there were none in the RIA group. Radiographic fusion at follow-up was similar between groups, with no significant difference (12.48 ± 3.85 weeks vs.12.21 ± 3.19 weeks, p = .80).Conclusions
There was a significantly higher nonunion rate in the ICBG group, but both groups had a solid radiographic bony fusion at similar follow-up time points. Our results suggest RIA bone graft is a viable alternative to ICBG for tibiotalar fusion. 相似文献17.

Introduction
We performed a study of the top 100 most cited articles in the five general surgery journals with the highest impact according to Journal Citation Report.Methods
We selected the five journals with the highest impact in 2015: Annals of Surgery, British Journal of Surgery, JAMA Surgery, Surgery, and Journal of the American College of Surgeons. In January 2017, using the Web of Science application, we performed a search of all articles published by these journals and identified the 100 most cited articles (top 100). We evaluated the number of citations, year of publication, type of article, country and hospital of the article, area of interest and number of authors.Results
The median number of citations per top 100 paper was 490. Twenty percent of the top 100 papers have been published since 2000. Overall, 70% are original papers, 8% randomized control trials, 11% reviews, 1% meta-analyses and 11% other subtypes. There are 13% proceedings papers. Sixty-one percent are from the US. The most frequently discussed topic is hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery (33%).Conclusions
The top 100 most cited articles tend to be original articles describing studies carried out in the US, reporting significant surgical breakthroughs. Hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery is the most common subject area. Annals of Surgery had twice as many citations as the other journals studied. The archetypal article of the Top15 most cited is an original paper published in the twentieth century, with an average of 2000 citations. 相似文献19.
