Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 2020
Background: We have studied the growth of Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics and Trauma (JCOT), the official journal of the Delhi Orthopaedic Association indexed in PubMed, Scopus and Embase, along with an analysis of citation trends and levels of evidence of published articles in the last five years. Methods: SCOPUS and PubMed databases (2015e19) were used to extract publication-related data for the last five years. The official website of the journal was also used to retrieve issue-specific data. An audit of recent publications in the JCOT was conducted focusing on number of issues and publications(year wise), types of articles published, review speed, level of evidence of publications, types of publication(speciality wise), number of publications in PubMed and SCOPUS, number of citations(year wise), national and international authorship and the Cite Scores. Results: The submissions were increased by 2.8 times and the citations rocketed to 16.6 times in 2019, compared to 2015. A total of 890 papers were there and the journal was cited 1702 times in the last five years. More articles with higher levels of evidence papers are now being published. Conclusion: There has been a significant increase in the numbers of submissions, publications, citations, Cite Score, h-index and contribution by the International authors. Its Editorial efficiency has also been outstanding with timely reviews and editorial decisions. The JCOT has become increasingly internationally relevant in the last five years, in the orthopaedic community. However, JCOT needs to publish more papers with a higher level of evidence like Systematic reviews, Meta-analyses, Randomized Controlled Trials and should only publish top-class lower hierarchy papers (like Case reports, Casecontrolled and Retrospective studies).
Growth of Journal of Orthopaedics (JOO
Journal of Orthopaedics (JOO) is the official journal of P.K. Surendran Memorial Education Foundation and Indo-Korean Orthopaedic Foundation. 1 It is published bimonthly by Elsevier as a hybrid journal that supports Open-Access publication. The JOO has a diverse and pan-global editorship. It is indexed in all the crucial and prestigious databases like PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Expanded Sources Citation Index (ESCI), Web of Science (WOS), Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Google Scholar, etc. The JOO is one of the topmost and leading Orthopaedic journals published from India 2 and falls in Quartile 2 of the SCOPUS. The current Cite Score of JOO is 2.0, and the H-index is 23. Its published documents on PubMed and Scopus are 1387 m and 1373, respectively (Fig. 1). It has published 72 systematic reviews so far, which is the highest amongst all the Indian Orthopaedic journals. The JOO has seen phenomenal growth since its inception in lesser than a decade. It has achieved abstracting and indexing in almost all the major databases. There has been a healthy trend of continuously rising h-index, and cite score, which is significant (Fig. 2). The published articles in the JOO are receiving a good number of citations that are increasing progressively over the years, in substantial numbers (Fig. 3). The JOO believes in publishing high-quality articles related to Orthopaedics, Traumatology, Spine, and Basic musculoskeletal science. The current acceptance rate of the JOO is 24%. The JOO is truly an International Orthopaedic journal. A high proportion of its authors and readers are from across the globe, especially from Western countries (Fig. 4). The publications of foreign authors in JOO are the highest amongst all the Indian Orthopaedic journals. 2 Its publications are widely read, with full-text usage in 2020 of around 150 thousand. The editorial speed of the JOO is at par with the leading International journals (Fig. 5). Its current time to first decision is 3.6 weeks, for a review it is 4.4 weeks, and for publication is 0.4 weeks. 1 The Editorial Board of the JOO has several ambitious plans for the future. These include a) the launch of a companion journal dedicated to Case Reports, Surgical Techniques, and Current Concept Reviews, b) increasing the frequency of publications from bimonthly to monthly basis, due to increasing demand and its publications and c) regular publications of the special issues focusing on the burning topics, which are relevant to the clinical practice of the Orthopaedic surgeons. So we request you to stay tuned and keep supporting this journal and wish you a Happy New Year.
Trends of publication in the orthopedic journals from India: A bibliometric analysis
We have studied the growth of three Indian orthopedic journals indexed in PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE, namely, Indian Journal of Orthopaedics (IJO), Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics and Trauma (JCOT), and Journal of Orthopaedics (JOO). SCOPUS and PubMed databases (2015-2020) were used. The numbers of papers published and citations received to date (since 2015) in these journals were as follows: JCOT (1158 articles; 2060 times), JOO (1070 articles; 2429 times), and IJO (888 articles; 1872 times). The publication and citation trends are rising for JCOT and JOO and have been constant for the IJO. All three journals have seen significant growth and have acted as torch bearers of knowledge shared by orthopedic surgeons in India and Asia.
European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, 2018
European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology (EJOST) was founded in 1991. It was initially named as Orthopédie-Traumatologie, and since then it is dedicated in sharing knowledge and new evidence in the field of orthopaedics. Within 28 volumes and 157 issues, it has published 3218 scientific articles. In the early years of its distribution, published articles were in French, while the last two decades EJOST only hosts English articles between its pages. By the very beginning of its launch, it has been publishing high-quality research articles in all orthopaedic subspecialties and has gradually become one of the leading journals in its specific subject area. The aim of this study was to identify, analyse and categorize the most frequently cited articles, published by EJOST since its launch.
Journal of Orthopaedic Science and Research
2021
This work is done to study different aspects of the topic; in any case, during our assortment and investigation of the information, we observed the presence of other shocking issues sharing largely the road traffic accident's increasing frequency and heavy impacts that need collective efforts of everyone, individuals and authority. In spite of the fact that street car crashes stay a significant issue compromising lives and assets in Benghazi, we are additionally encircled by other upsetting awful mishaps generally sharing the recurrence, genuine effect and expanding occurrence of street auto collisions. Therefore, our enthusiasm against RTA should not overshadow such painful, dangerous events including AFD and VT.
Background: The Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics and Trauma (JCOT) is one of the top three orthopaedic journals from India. We set out to analyse the top 50 cited articles from JCOT since indexing in PubMed and Scopus. Methods: We looked into the bibliometrics of the top 50 cited articles and compared citations from PubMed and Scopus, and depicted outputs from VOS viewer analysis on co-authorship and keywords. Results: Total citations for top-cited articles were 1076 in numbers, with a maximum of 103.2016 and 2018 were the most productive years. The major contribution was from India with 74%, followed by the USA. New Delhi published maximally at 72%. Clinical topics and narrative reviews were the most common types of studies. Trauma and Adult reconstruction was the most common sub-specialities, and Level 4 was the most frequent level of study. The basic science and COVID-19 related articles received the maximum citations. The authors from Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals published the maximum number of top-50 cited articles in the JCOT. Conclusions: There is a steady increase in the number of publications in the JCOT, with an increasing number of citation counts. Both the Indian and foreign authors have been publishing in this journal at a comparative rate. Although the citation counts in Scopus are more than those in PubMed for given articles, more than 80% of articles are listed in both databases as top 50 cited articles. The majority of topcited articles belonged to trauma and adult reconstruction, level III studies, and narrative reviews.

Editorial: Getting the Most from What You Read in Orthopaedic Journals
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research®
any orthopaedic surgeons tell me they are uneasy about reading scientific journals. This is perhaps not surprising; the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education requires that orthopaedic residents do research, but it has no specific requirements for journal clubs or critical-reading programs for trainees [1]. Training programs allocate resources accordingly, and the result is that some practitioners find reading scientific papers a real challenge. Key Questions for the Methods Section The thoughtful consumer of orthopaedic research will focus on two main themes while reading an article's Methods section: Validity and bias. Validity comes in two flavors: External validity (generalizability) and internal validity (methodological rigor). Criteria for external validity-whether a reader can generalize the results of a
Level of Evidence in Orthopaedic Journals
2006
Background: The American edition of The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (JBJS-A) has included a level-of-evidence rating for each of its clinical scientific papers published since January 2003. The purpose of this study was to assess the type and level of evidence found in nine different orthopaedic journals by applying this level-of-evidence rating system.
