          Abstract

          Introducción: Caracterizar la producción científica personal, institucional o nacional es una necesidad para comprender y mejorar la generación de conocimiento. El objetivo de este estudio es definir el perfil bibliométrico de las publicaciones ISI, relacionadas con la cirugía chilena en el período 2001-2010. Material y Método: Estudio bibliométrico. Se realizó una búsqueda en la plataforma ISI Web of Knowledge de Thomson Reuters respecto de la productividad científica de la cirugía chilena en los últimos 10 años. Las variables analizadas fiieron número de publicaciones, citaciones de artículos chilenos por año, revistas en las que se publicó, idioma de las publicaciones, autores, instituciones y países de coautoría. Resultados: Se identificaron 380 artículos, 333 de los cuales (87,6%) se registraron en el período 2006-2010. Fueron citados en 1.946 oportunidades (Factor de Impacto de 5,12 e índice-h de 21). Los artículos fueron publicados en Rev Chil Cir (33,4%), Obes Surg (8,15%) y World J Surg (3,6%). Las instituciones con mayor representación fueron Universidad de Chile (33,9%), Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (21,0%) y Universidad de La Frontera (8,4%). Conclusión: La producción científica de la cirugía chilena ha mostrado un importante ascenso desde el inicio del período en estudio hasta la fecha. De la misma forma, se observa un incremento de las citaciones de estos artículos.

          Background: The number and quality of publications is an indirect measure of the capacity of an individual, institution or country to generate knowledge. Aim: To assess the number of publications of Chilean surgeons, registered in the Institute for Scientific Knowledge (ISI). Material and Methods: A search was conducted in the ISI platform for publications generated by Chilean surgeons in the last ten years. The number of publications and citations, the journals in which the publications appeared and nationality of coauthors, were analyzed. Results: Three hundred and eighty papers were identified. Of these, 333 (88%) were published in the period 2006-2010. The papers were cited in 1.946 opportunities (impact factor of 5.12 and h-index of 21). Thirty three percent of papers were published in Revista Chilena de Cirugía, 8% in Obesity Surgery and 4% in the World Journal of Surgery. Thirty four percent of papers came from the University of Chile, 21% from Catholic University and 8% from Universidad de la Frontera. Conclusions: The number of publications of Chilean surgeons is experiencing an increase in the last years.

              Bibliometric study of articles published in a Brazilian journal of pediatric dentistry

              This cross-sectional study aimed at evaluating the abstracts of all articles published in the "Jornal Brasileiro de Odontopediatria e Odontologia do Bebê" in order to collect data on the study design used, the most researched topics and the Brazilian states with the highest scientific production. Copies were made of the abstracts of each article, totaling 572 abstracts. Data categorization was done by two trained and independent reviewers. The results showed that the most used study design were case report (33%) and cross-sectional study (30%). On the other hand, there were only 2.5% of randomized clinical trials and no systematic review or meta-analysis. The most researched topics were cariology (15%) and restorative dentistry / dental materials (10%). The state with the greatest number of publications was São Paulo (40%), followed by Rio de Janeiro (17%). It was concluded that the majority of the articles published referred to studies with a low potential to establish scientific evidence, indicating a need for conducting research based on better quality methodology. Moreover, it was found that the assessed literature reflected the trends observed in the clinical practice of Pediatric Dentistry in Brazil.
