Design: All articles published in 1983, 1988, 1993, and 1998 in 5 US surgical journals and 1 British surgical journal were reviewed and characterized. Main Outcome Measures: Absolute numbers and proportions of national and international articles published in each journal. Results: Articles reviewed included 4868 in US journals and 1380 in the British journal. The total number of US journal articles decreased by 15.1%. The total number of British journal articles increased by 58.9%. The percentage of national articles decreased from 87.5% to 68.8% in US journals (P<.001) and constituted the minority of freely submitted articles in 1998 in 3 of 5 US journals. The percentage of national articles also decreased from 74.8% to 47.1% in the British journal (P<001). Articles by European and Asian authors showed the most striking increases in all journals. The percentage of basic research articles declined in US journals from 23.3% to 17.9% (P=.001) owing to a 14.9% decline in national basic research articles. The percentage of clinical randomized studies increased from 2.2% to 4.1% (P<.008), but the increase was attributable to international articles. Government funding alone decreased from 13.6% to 11.2%, and government plus another source of funding decreased from 19.2% to 16.7% for national articles in US journals. Conclusions: Internationalization of the highly rated British and the 5 highest rated US general surgical journals has occurred. The decrease in the number of national articles in the US journals has been accompanied by significant decreases in government funding and basic research articles and a static output of clinical randomized studies from North America.

The loss of the British Empire may have benefited the BJS which like Britain has had to look increasingly to Europe and beyond and not just to the English-speaking world. This may explain the greater reduction, proportionally, in national articles in the United Kingdom compared with the United States. The increase in European publications reflects a policy change by the BJS to encourage greater cooperation with European surgical societies, providing a wider readership for their members. Thus, during a 30 year period between 1969 and 1999, the number of United Kingdom-based national publications in the BJS decreased from 82% to 47%, whereas the number of European articles increased from 2% to 28% during the same period. There was no discernible trend in publications from the rest of the world. The US journals seem to have attracted a greater contribution from Asia than from Europe. In his review of 9 general surgical jurnals (including the BJS and 3 of the U.S. journals cited in the aticle by Tompkins and co-authors), the editor of The Lancet, in 1996, (1)compared surgical research to a comic opera, with its emphasis on case series rather than randomized trials. Tompkins and colleagues note a decrease in basic research in all publications but a dearth of randomized trials in the BJS between 1988 and 1998. This finding is at odds with the data reported in a leading article in the BJS which note an increase from 3 to 13 randomized trials per year between 1989 and 1999(2). The authors rightly identify the impact of external factors on research, such as the pressure of managed care on academic and clinical departments. In the United Kingdom, the research assessment exercise places greater emphasis on the impact factor of publications submitted for grant applications. This has led to a shift from clinical to molecular research with subsequent publication in scientific journals with a higher impact factor. This may explain the relative reduction in national research articles. The implication for all surgical journals is clear: globalization is here to stay. The differene in teh internationalization of general surgical journals between the US journals and BJS is marked and sould sound alarm bells among the editorial boards of these journals. Insularity must be challenged. Bernard F. Ribeiro, FRCS, FRCSEd London, England 1. Horton R. Surgical research or comic opera: questions, but few answers, Lancet 1996: 347:984-985 2.

The most commonly used measure is the 2 year Impact Factor, which broadly reflects the number of times each article in the journal has been cited over the previous 2 years.There are clear limitations to the use of such measures - not least, Impact Factors reflect the journal not the article, vary with time and correlate only poorly with perceived excellence. Simple comparison of impact factors in different specialties may be misleading. Review journals often have higher Impact Factors than those with original data. Both authors and editors can try to manipulate journal Impact Factors. However, despite valid concerns, Impact Factors are widely used and offer, at present, the best simple tool for comparison of output. Like all measures, the use of Impact Factors has to be tempered with knowledge of their limitations and common sense used in interpreting any data based on any analysis.

We reviewed 530 randomized clinical trials on hepato-biliary diseases published in I I English-language journals indexed in MEDLINE from 1985-1996. From each trial, we extracted the statistical significance of the primary study outcome (positive or negative), the disease area, and methodological quality (randomization and double blinding). The number of citations during two calendar years after publication was obtained from Science Citation Index. There was a significant positive association between a statistically significant study outcome and the citation frequency (beta, 0.55, 95% confidence interval, 0.39-0.72). The disease area and adequate generation of the allocation sequence were also significant predictors of the citation frequency.

Web search engine is the most commonly used tool for information retrieval; however, its current status is far from satisfaction. In this paper, we propose a new approach to cluster search results returned from Web search engine using link analysis. Unlike document clustering algorithms in IR that based on common words/phrases shared between documents, our approach is base on common links shared by pages using co-citation and coupling analysis. We also extend standard clustering algorithm K-means to make it more natural to handle noises and apply it to web search results. By filtering some irrelevant pages, our approach clusters high quality pages into groups to facilitate users' accessing and browsing. Preliminary experiments and evaluations are conducted to investigate its effectiveness. The experiment results show that clustering on web search results via link analysis is promising.

Using the approach, similarity along each feature dimension of objects are first computed. The inter-objects similarity are then computed from inter-feature-dimension similarity using a Bayesian multi-causal model. Objects are finally clustered based on the computed similarity. An online citation entry clustering system was built using the approach. It accepts user queries in the form of name of authors. Such queries are sent to citation/bibliography search engines. The returned entries are clustered based on feature dimensions such as authors, title, place of publication, etc. After clustering, entries from different authors with the similar name form different clusters, that are presented to the user. Preliminary experiment results indicated the effectiveness of the proposed clustering approach. The architecture of three-tire clustering framework, feature representation of a citation entry, a brief network model for inter-object similarity computation, and a special cluster evaluation technique are discussed in detail.

Nie : nie at iro.umontreal.ca H.J.Zhang : hjzhang at microsoft.com TITLE Query clustering using user logs AUTHOR Wen JR, Nie JY, Zhang HJ JOURNAL ACM TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION SYSTEMS 20 (1): 59-81 JAN 2002 Document type: Article Language: English Cited References: 21 Times Cited: 0 Abstract: Query clustering is a process used to discover frequently asked questions or most popular topics on a search engine. This process is crucial for search engines based on question-answering. Because of the short lengths of Queries, approaches based on keywords are not suitable for query clustering. This paper describes a new query clustering method that makes use of user logs which allow us to identify the documents the users have selected for a query. The similarity between two queries may be deduced from the common documents the users selected for them. Our experiments show that a combination of both keywords and user logs is better than using either method alone.

I looked at a couple of my own papers and counted the SSCI citations and then searched for mentions of the papers on the Web - the results left me wondering whether the reliance on citation indexing as a measure of performance is now past its sell by date. My most cited paper is "On user studies and information needs" (1981) - a Web search (using Google) revealed 118 pages that listed the title. The pages were reading lists, free electronic journals, and documents that would never be covered by SSCI, such as reports from various agencies. SSCI revealed, if I recall aright, 79 citations of the paper. The question is: is the Web revealing impact more effectively than SSCI? Citation in scholarly papers takes a variety of forms and much citation is of a token variety - x is cited because x is always cited. On the other hand citation on reading lists implies some positive recommendation of the text, and mention in policy documents and the like, implies (at least in some cases) that some benefit has been found in the cited document. It may also be that the use of Web citation would provide a more complete measure - I discovered, much to my surprise, that a 1971 text of mine on 'chain indexing' is cited on one reading list and in the bibliography of a document in German on classification. Greater international coverage is a further benefit of using Web citation. It strikes me that a move towards using Web citation as the measure of performance would be rather more useful than the use of citation indexes. No doubt others have looked at this issue - is any consensus emerging? Tom Wilson ----------------------------------- Professor T.D.

The authors I addresses were sought from papers in this database and thereby some of the books could be attributed to individual countries, such as the UK and the USA, which were to be compared. Counts of citations and of reviews to individual books both showed that the UK was a very strong performer in this subject, and that its standing relatively had increased over the last few decades. This judgement reinforced the results of interviews carried out overseas with senior historians of medicine and gave them extra credibility.

Self-citation, considered as the number of times a paper cites other papers in the same journal, is an important criteria of journal quality. Our objective is to evaluate the self-citation in the official journal of the Spanish Society of Radiology (Radiolog?a), and to compare it with the European Radiology and Radiology journals. Papers published in Radiolog?a, European Radiology, and Radiology during 1997 and 1998 were analyzed. The Self Citation Index, considered as the ratio between self-references and total number of references per article, for the journals Radiolog?a (SCIR), European Radiology (SCIER), and Radiology (SCIRY), were obtained and expressed as percentages. Also, the number of references to Radiolog?a in European Radiology and Radiology papers were calculated. Stratification of the index per thematic area and article type was also performed. Mean SCIR, SCIER,and SCIRY values were compared with the ANOVA and the Student-Newman-Keuls tests. The self-citation index was Statistically higher in Radiology (23.2%; p<0.0001) than in Radiolog?a (1.8%) and European Radiology (0.8%). There were no statistically significant differences between SCIR and SCIER indexes (p=0.25). In the stratification per thematic areas and article type, self-citation in Radiology was statistically higher (p<0.0001), with the only exception of "Radioprotection" area (p=0.2), to SCIR and SCIER. Although there were no statistically significant differences, by thematic areas SCIR was always larger than SCIER, with the only exception of the "Genitourinary imaging" area, and by article type SCIR also went greater to SCIER, except in review articles. Radiolog?a, The Spanish official radiological journal, although not included in Index Medicus and its database Medline, had a larger number of self-citing than European Radiology in the period 1997-1998.

Methods: The quasi-citation analysis includes two segments: 1) a review of selected key C-L psychiatry references to determine the extent to which classic articles from Psychosomatic Medicine are cited; and 2) an analysis of 60 years of Psychosomatic Medicine, sampling issues from the first 5 years of each decade and all issues of the year 2000 for articles of potential relevance to C-L psychiatry, References to Psychosomatic Medicine articles in C-L resources are tallied as percentages of total references in each source. Articles in Psychosomatic Medicine are assigned to one of three categories (A, B, or Q according to their perceived relevance to C-L psychiatry, from most (A) to least (C) relevant. Results: The review of C-L sources ("basic" reading lists and reference lists of. seminal articles and textbooks) revealed a wide range of Psychosomatic Medicine citations, from 0% to 27.4% (average, 7.5%). The survey of Psychosomatic Medicine sorted 1705 articles for their relevance to C-L psychiatry into category A 5-40.6%, average 21.3%), category B (70.4-86.3%, average 72.3%), and category C (0.7-12.1%, average 6.4%) for each half-decade for the past 60 years. The lowest number of category A articles appeared in the years 1970 to 1975, and the highest number appeared in 1950 to 1955; reciprocal results were found for category B articles. The lowest number of category C articles appeared in 1980 to 1985, and the highest number appeared in 1940 to 1945. For the six issues of 2000. The distributions of articles in categories A, B, and C are similar, continuing an upward trend beginning in 1975 of core (category A) articles. Explanations for publication patterns are peculatively related to various factors. such as a paucity G-L research and researchers, the broad definition of C-L psychiatry, editorial policies, and the impact of World War II. Conclusions: Although C-L psychiatry and psychosomatic medicine have common roots, the reliance of the C-L literature on classic Psychosomatic Medicine articles has varied markedly, from none to about one-quarter of its references. Nevertheless, Psychosomatic Medicine has consistently published articles of theoretical and clinical interest to C-L psychiatrists, with more than 90% Of published articles considered to be of high or moderate relevance to C-L psychiatry. A far higher percentage of articles in Psychosomatic Medicine would seem to be relevant to the field of C-L psychiatry than are cited in significant C-L literature. Psychosomatic Medicine's essential focus on empirical research may dissuade the more clinically oriented C-L psychiatrists.

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR INFORMATION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 52 (14): 1242-1254 DEC 2001 Message-ID: WILLIAM W. HOOD : W.Hood at unsw.edu.au CONCEPCION S. WILSON : C.Wilson at unsw.edu.au TITLE The scatter of documents over databases in different subject domains: How many databases are needed? AUTHOR Hood WW, Wilson CS JOURNAL JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR INFORMATION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 52 (14): 1242-1254 DEC 2001 Document type: Article Language: English Cited References: 22 Times Cited: 0 Abstract: The distribution of bibliographic records in on-line bibliographic databases is examined using 14 different search topics. These topics were searched using the DIALOG database host, and using as many suitable databases as possible. The presence of duplicate records in the searches was taken into consideration in the analysis, and the problem with lexical ambiguity in at least one search topic is discussed. The study answers questions such as how many databases are needed in a multifile search for particular topics, and what coverage will be achieved using a certain number of Databases. The distribution of the percentages of records retrieved over a number of databases for 13 of the 14 search topics roughly fell into three groups: (1) high concentration of records in one database with about 80% coverage in five to eight databases; (2) moderate concentration in one database with about 80% coverage in seven to 10 databases; and (3) low concentration in one database with about 80% coverage in 16 to 19 databases. The study does conform with earlier results, but shows that the number of databases needed for searches with varying complexities of search strategies, is much more topic dependent than previous studies would indicate.

Before reviewing various aspects of e-journals, it is necessary to fully understand the traditional journal system, because the developments, roles, and deficiencies of the paper journal system will illustrate some basic requirements for successful e-journals. This article also examines the developments of e-journals and presents a comprehensive examination of the economic, technological and cognitive, and sociological aspects of e-journals based upon an extensive literature review. With regard to the economic and technological and ognitive aspects, the benefits of scholarly e-journal publishing appear to be, by and large, favorable to the transition from paper to electronic journals. However, the major stumbling block is the credibility of scholarly e-journals. Whether or not scholars can obtain the same recognition or rewards through e-journal publication as they obtain through paper journal publication must be one of the key factors that affect scholar's acceptance of e-journals.

With regard to the economic and technological and cognitive aspects, the benefits of scholarly e-journal publishing appear to be, by and large, favorable to the transition from the paper to the electronic medium. However, the major stumbling b lock is the credibility of scholarly e-journals. Despite the fact that many scholarly e-journals have already implemented the process of peer review for quality control as a conventional paper journal does, the results of surveys indicate that most people perceive that the qualities of articles published in the electronic medium are generally lower than those published in the conventional paper medium. Moreover, since there is no guarantee that formal academic rewards will be granted to scholars who publish in e-journals, those who have to worry about their career advancement in terms of tenure or promotion tend not to publish their papers in e-journals. Therefore, there is a possibility that scholarly e-journals will be differently accepted by scholars according to their career levels unless their academic reward system fully embraces e-journal publication. This would have a negative impact upon the ultimate integration of the e-journal into the formal system of scholarly communication. In order to be fully accepted by the academic reward system, the effectiveness of the peer review process of e-journals must first be empirically substantiated. Since no empirical research in regard to the peer review process of scholarly e-journals has been done, there is no way to determine how rigorous, reliable, and valid the peer review process implemented in scholarly e-journals is. It is clear that without reliance on the quality of e-journal publication the academic reward system will never fully embrace e-journal publications.

"Citation in scientific publications. Audit of the journal "Strahlentherapie und Onkologie" STRAHLENTHERAPIE UND ONKOLOGIE 177 (11): 585-591 Message-ID: The author is the editor of the German language journal, "Strahlentherapie und Onkologie" (Radio-Therapy and Oncology). She has cleverly devised a strategy for increasing the impact factor of her journal. First, she has written a "review" in which she cites every one of the articles published in the journal for the two-year period 1999-2000. By adding 164 pseudo references to the actual citation count of 740, she has increased the impact factor from 2.85 to 3.28! She also encourages her authors to cite more papers that appear in her journal. We now see the fulfillment of prophecies made a long time ago that the use of quantitative measures of impact would produced modified citation behavior.

The database includes publications and citations taken from the peer-reviewed journals indexed by ISI. It is designed to analyze the state of research of different countries in different fields. Number of papers published by year, their fate (citations) and the number of citations per paper published (impact) can be analyzed. A citation analysis concerned with the overall field of clinical medicine during 1981-1994 was published in 1996 [1]. It disclosed a clear-cut superiority of the US, UK and Canada. The aim of this paper was to provide an updated (1981-1998) and more detailed survey of the field.

For assessing the scientific publication productivity in Analytical Chemistry and its impact among the EU countries, the total publication number from each country, the number of publications per population unit and the mean impact factor for each country are calculated. Moreover, the preference to publish in specific journals per country is appraised. The number of publications in Analytical Chemistry from the member states of EU has been increased by 32.8% in comparison to the 1986-1992 period. Most Analytical Chemistry articles in the EU have been published by German scientists (8608 papers), while a steep increase in comparison to the 1986-1992 period, was observed for Portugal (275%) and Greece (95.5%). Swedish scientists are the most productive in relation to the country?s population, having published 206 papers per million of population. Scientists from Sweden also publish in the highest impact analytical journals with a mean impact factor of 1.98, while the EU mean impact factor is 1.75. Journal of Chromatography, A is the main publishing medium for scientists from almost all EU, indicating that a great deal of research is going on in separation techniques. From the journals of general scope, Analytica Chimica Acta publishes a significant portion of papers for many researchers in EU.

Those objectively given data are the subject access points (SAPs) and they include titles, abstracts, references, classification codes, descriptors, full text elements and structures and more. The paper outlines how advances in information technology (IT) have developed five major stages in SAPs, including computer based retrieval in the 50ies, citation indexing in the 70ies and full text retrieval in the 90ies. This part of the article also present criteria for a taxonomy of SAPs as well as theoretical problems related to concepts like subject and aboutness. The second part of the article presents a synthesis of findings related to each kind of access point (titles, abstracts, references/citations, full text and descriptors, classification codes etc.) On the one hand traditional measurement of how different SAPs may improve recall and precision in IR is discussed. The emphasis has also been, however, on the other hand to demonstrate the variability in the functions of such different access points in different discourse communities and at times to consider more qualitative issues related to SAPs compared to traditional approaches in IR. A main conclusion is that a given access point does not have a general informational value for IR, but that the value of different access points are relative to norms of writing and citing in different communities. The relative benefits and drawbacks of terms versus references as SAPs are given special theoretical attention. The informational value of a given SAP (e.g. abstracts) is therefore not only a function of the length of the record, but also a function of its content and quality. The review is informed by modern epistemology, according to which observations are theory-dependent. A given representation will thus always be biased in some direction or another. There is nothing like a neutral representation (e.g. abstract) of a document recognizing that there is a well known distinction between descriptive and evaluative abstracts. A representation is never neutral, nor should it be. It should represent the users' interest or the interests of the information system, of which it forms a part. Thus different SAPs may be more or less useful depending on how the perspective of the searcher matches the perspective implied by a given SAP. The paper provides a rich description of many kinds of documents, subjects, cultures, and target groups etc., thus avoiding the dominating tendency to suppose that one ideal language or algorithm can manage all kinds of demands.

But India accounts for only about 5-6% of the world's research output in this area and China a paltry 1% as seen from papers indexed in three international databases, viz. PubMed, Science Citation Index and Biochemistry and Biophysics Citation Index over the ten-year period 1990-1999. Thus there is a tremendous mismatch between the share of the burden of the disease and share of research efforts. Is such mismatch acceptable? It raises the question 'should resource-poor countries invest in research or should they depend on research performed elsewhere and invest their meagre resources predominantly in health-care measures?' We argue that both India and China should invest much more in research than they do. We have also mapped TB research in the two countries and identified institutions and cities active in research, journals used to publish the findings, use of high impact journals, impact of their research as seen from citations received and extent of international collaboration. Although China performs much less research than India and its work is quoted much less often, it seems to have done far better than India in health-care delivery in TB. Perhaps the Chinese are better able to translate know-how into do-how than the Indians.

Abstract We have mapped and evaluated diabetes research in India and China, based on papers published during 1990-1999 and indexed in PubMed, Science Citation Index (SCI) and Biochemistry and Biophysics Citation Index (BBCI) and citations to each one of these papers up to 2000. We have identified institutions carrying out diabetes research, journals used to publish the results, subfields in which the two countries have published often, and the impact of the work as seen from actual citations to the papers. We have also assessed the extent of international collaboration in diabetes research in these two countries, based on papers indexed in SCI and BBCI. There is an enormous mismatch between the disease burden and the share of research performed in both countries. Although together these two countries account for 26% of the prevalence of diabetes, they contribute less than 2% of the world's research. We argue that both India and China need to (i) strengthen their research capabilities in this area, (ii) increase investment in health-care research considerably, (iii) facilitate substantive international collaboration in research, and (iv) support cross-disciplinary research between basic life sciences researchers and medical researchers. As data such as those presented here should form the basis of health policy, India and China should encourage evaluation of research.

Mela : meladimi at csita.unige.it TITLE Neurological research in Europe, as assessed with a four-year overview of neurological science international journals AUTHOR Mela GS, Mancardi GL JOURNAL JOURNAL OF NEUROLOGY 249 (4): 390-395 APR 2002 Document type: Review Language: English Cited References: 12 Times Cited: 0 Abstract: This paper analyses all the peer-reviewed articles published by European authors in 161 neurological journals screened by ISI in accordance with Current Contents/Life Science and Current Contents/Clinical Medicine in the period 1995-1998. Our aim was to report the amount and quality of neurological research in the different countries of the European Union (EU), the USA and the world. The number of papers, the impact factors (IF), the population of the source country and gross domestic product (GDP), were downloaded. Data show that in the EU there is a progressive increase in the number of published papers from 1995 to 1998 and that large countries such as Germany, the United Kingdom, France and Italy rank at the top four places for absolute number of papers. The gap in the number of papers between the USA and the EU significantly diminished in the examined period, from a difference of 14% to 6%. However, when the IF is considered, the USA performed better than EU, although excellent results have been obtained by the United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands and Sweden. When the number and quality of papers are plotted against the number of inhabitants or GDP, Sweden, the Netherlands and Finland are the leading countries in Europe. The present study demonstrates that neurological research in the EU is active and productive, is steadily increasing and is now a relevant part of all biomedical world research.

An empirical evaluation of citation counts and their link with peer ratings of quality Author West R, McIlwaine A Journal ADDICTION 97 (5): 501-504 MAY 2002 Document type: Article Language: English Cited References: 21 Times Cited: 0 Abstract: Aims This study investigated the value of citation counts as an index of quality in the field of addiction and examined factors that contribute to papers being cited more or less frequently. Design The number of times papers published by the journal Addiction in 1995-98 that had been cited up to May 2000 were counted using the Science and the Social Science Citation Indexes. Articles in nine of the monthly issues from 1997 were rated by two independent expert raters for quality. Factors related to citation counts were also examined including: country of origin of the paper, substance type, solicited versus unsolicited papers and methodology used. Findings A total of 417 unsolicited research reports were included in the citation analysis, of which 79 were also subjected to quality ratings. The experts showed a moderate level of agreement in their ratings (intraclass correlation = 0.39, p < 0.001). However, there was no correlation between number of citations and expert ratings of article quality (R < 0.1). Papers from developing countries received significantly fewer citations than papers from other countries but substance type (e.g. nicotine. opiate. alcohol) and methodology (e.g. survey, treatment trial) were not related to number of citations. Conclusions This study involved just one journal but raised an important issue: the number of citations received by papers on addiction appears to reflect the geographical region of study rather than what experts would consider as 'quality'. If these findings are found to generalize they call into question the use of citation-related indices as measures of quality in this field and perhaps in others as well. To our knowledge our methodology has not been used before and could be adapted to study the value of citations more widely.

Given the importance attaching to citations as the nearest we have to an objective marker of quality, this would seem to be a useful area for future study.

Research questions: How can the history of clinical psychology and of its research domains be reconstructed bibliometrically with reference to the publications in international psychology and psychology from the German-speaking countries? Methods: Databases are the Psychological Abstracts (1927-1966), PsycLit (1967-1999) and PSYNDEX (1977-1999), in which psychological publications are documented relatively exhaustively. Results: Historiographically Described are (1) the bibliometrically clearly demonstrable boom of clinical psychology publications since the 1950s, (2) the relatively low rate of psychotherapeutically relevant publications in comparison to those concerning disorders, health services, hospital programs, and rehabilitation, and (3) the relatively low rate of empirical and experimental (controlled) studies published on psychotherapy in contrast to all other domains of applied psychology. Consequences: There has been a clear boom of clinical psychology publication output since the 1950s in international psychology, as well as psychology from the German-speaking countries. However, there are publication deficits in the domain of psychotherapy and especially in the domain of experimental and broader empirically founded studies. Problems of bibliometric analyses are discussed as well as the implications of the results for the future of clinical psychology, especially psychotherapy research.

As I wrote then, I founded ISI in 1954, but I am no longer a shareholder, although I retain an office and the title of chairman emeritus. Essential Science Indicators and its editorial features such as Fast-Breaking Papers (in www.esi-topics.com) represent an expansion of similar past endeavors well known to long-time readers of Current Contents or The Scientist. My essays, containing descriptions of these efforts, appeared regularly in Current Contents. These essays and all my other publications over a 45-year period can be accessed free at www.eugenegarfield.org. It was not obvious in the early days of ISI that the Science Citation Index could be used to identify significant "current" research. Due to time lags in publication and citation, it was generally assumed that this was not possible because of a seemingly inherent lack of currency in citation data. Among science journals, the average cited reference is about six years old and somewhat less for life science journals. What was overlooked, however, was the fact that, even just after World War II, citation of significant breakthroughs usually was quite rapid. So it was not a trivial discovery to recognize that analysis of citations to the latest three months' literature could detect a small but significant group of "hot papers," which soon blossomed into highly cited papers, new specialty areas, research fronts, invisible colleges, and even journals. Hot papers are regularly reported in ISI's bimonthly newsletter Science Watch. Readers of The Scientist are familiar with our selective reporting on these Hot Papers, which is undoubtedly one of our most popular features. The format of these articles has evolved over time. In the early days, they consisted of short commentaries by the papers' authors, giving their take on why the papers were highly cited. It seems a truism, but the best way to get featured in the 'Hot Papers' section is to publish a significant paper that is quickly recognized as a breakthrough of one kind or another. Today, Hot Papers are analyzed by journalists in consultation with the lead authors, as in the mammalian clock piece by Karen Young Kreeger. Soon we'll add another dimension to this section by featuring articles written by scientists, who will bring you up to date on the research front involved. As part of their preparation, I will be providing authors with a unique perspective on the historio-bibliographic background of the topic. More about that in a forthcoming issue.

The number of in-links to a Web Site is the Web equivalent of the citation count of a journal article from traditional bibliometrics(20). Several search engines provide information as to how many other sites link to a particular site. In this study, we used Lycos to measure the number of in-links. For the 100 sites that we investigated, the number of in-links varied from 0 to about 37,000. Just less than half of these sites were referred to by more than 1,000 other sites. Websites to which more than 1,000 other Websites linked were deemed to have "many in-links"." Document type: Article Language: English Cited References: 24 Times Cited: 0 Abstract: Objectives: To identify indicators of accuracy for consumer health information on the Internet. The results will help lay people distinguish accurate from inaccurate health information on the Internet. Design: Several popular search engines (Yahoo, AltaVista, and Google) were used to find Web pages on the treatment of fever in children. The accuracy and completeness of these Web pages was determined by comparing their content with that of an instrument developed from authoritative sources on treating fever in children. The presence on these Web pages of a number of proposed indicators of accuracy, taken from published guidelines for evaluating the quality of health information on the Internet, was noted. Main Outcome Measures: Correlation between the accuracy of Web pages on treating fever in children and the presence of proposed indicators of accuracy on these pages. Likelihood ratios for the presence (and absence) of these proposed indicators. Results: One hundred Web pages were identified and characterized as "more accurate" or "less accurate." Three indicators correlated with accuracy: displaying the HONcode logo, having an organization domain, and displaying a copyright. Many proposed indicators taken from published guidelines did not correlate with accuracy (e.g., the author being identified and the author having medical credentials) or inaccuracy (e.g., lack of currency and advertising). Conclusions: This method provides a systematic way of identifying indicators that are correlated with the accuracy (or inaccuracy) of health information on the Internet. Three such indicators have been identified in this study. Identifying such indicators and informing the providers and consumers of health information about them would be valuable for public health care.

Empirical research on e-prints has not, however, been commensurate with increasing numbers of e-print servers, scientists authoring e-prints, or researchers accessing e-prints. This study examines a sample of e-prints randomly selected from three e-print servers to ascertain e-print authors' type and country of employment, level of collaboration, citation of other e-prints, level of publication in traditional, peer-reviewed or letters journals, and eventual transformation of e-prints into refereed publications.

Youngen 1998, 449), it would be premature to conclude too much from findings based on a sample of 300 e-prints, a mere 2.5% of annual e-print output(22). Additionally, this was a random sample and a weighted sample might have been more beneficial in assessing the behavior of representative e-print authors. Nevertheless, certain trends emerging from these findings deserve mention. Because these findings correspond to what was known of preprint authorship, or predictable of e-print authorship, it seems safe to conclude that : o e-prints are not being transformed into peer-reviewed journal articles at a rate higher than that at which preprints were transformed. That is, only 50-60% of e-prints directly and clearly result in journal articles. o because not all e-prints are submitted to or approved by peer-reviewed publications, there probably are grounds for worrying that e-prints could, potentially, leave "bad versions" of papers accessible in the public arena (Lim 1996, 26). This is not to say that all e-prints that do not result in peer-reviewed publications represent "bad" science; authors may choose to make the e-prints' contents the basis for sections in publications on broader topics, may re-direct their research interests, or may be prevented by external circumstances from following up on research. However, while scientists currently researching in an e-print's field may be well equipped to detect "bad" research, e-prints are also accessible to students, researchers in other fields, and the public, "who are in [no] position to judge [e-prints'] acceptability" (Meadows 1998, 204) but must instead rely upon the peer-review process to screen information for them. o any peer-reviewed articles resulting from an e-print can be expected to appear within 6-12 months of the e-print's posting. o e-prints often result from collaborations, including international collaborations, but that e-prints are not yet being produced in large numbers by authors from developing countries. o notes on e-prints indicating the journal to which an article was submitted or by which an article was accepted do not always correctly indicate the journal in which the article was actually published. Bibliographic control of e-prints is currently limited (Carroll and Cotter 1994, 6). o e-prints do not seem to be lessening the amount of traditional, peer-reviewed publications because e-print authors often publish extensively, even if they do not always transform particular e-prints into peer-reviewed journal articles. A fundamental question raised by the global accessibility of c-prints on servers concerns the boundary between formal and information communication, a distinction that has been at the heart of most studies of scientific communication (e.g., Griffith 1990, 40).23 Those concerned about c-prints' proliferation often emphasize c-prints' status as informal, non-peer-reviewed communication (Dow 2000, 152), and journal articles' status as formal, peer-reviewed communication (Van de Sompel and Lagoze 2000). Otto Kinne, for example, cautions that e-prints are "fine for speedy, low cost communication of an informal sort" but the boundaries of formal and informal should not be blurred (1999, 316), with non-peer-reviewed e-prints' being substituted for peer-reviewed journal articles. Unfortunately, the distinction between formal and informal communication is being rendered obsolete by electronic forms of self-publication,24 which effectively "whitewash[ I' this intrinsically 'grey literature' so that it becomes public/published the day it leaves the author's desk" (Daliman, Draper, and Schwarz 1994, 3). What this will mean for the continuation-or metamorphosis-of peer-reviewed publications and e-prints is an open question. Perhaps methods of peer-review for e-prints will be implemented. In any case, continued scholarly attention needs to be paid to the blurring of this boundary; the changing publication forms and roles that result therefrom;25 and the resultant, emerging paradigms of scholarly and scientific publishing.26 Many phenomena related to these changes remain under-explored, especially upon an empirical basis.

Although several innovation studies and surveys have provided some convincing empirical evidence of impacts and benefits of research to technical progress, there is still an urgent need for comprehensive models, reliable data and analytical tools to describe and monitor links between R&D and industrial innovation in more detail. As for the role of scientific and engineering research in the innovation process, this paper reports on the findings of a novel methodology to increase our understanding of the contribution of research efforts to successful technical inventions. The approach is based on a nation-wide mail survey amongst inventors working in the corporate sector and the public research sector in The Netherlands. The inventors' inside information regarding their patented inventions-and related technological innovations on the market-provided a range of quantitative data on the importance of the underpinning research activities. Statistical models attempting to explain the degree of "science dependence" of the inventions identify a range of relevant variables, covering the inventor's own capabilities and previous R&D achievements, external information sources, as well as the inventor's R&D environment in general. Some 20% of the private sector innovations turned out to be (partially) based on public sector research. Furthermore, citations in patents referring to basic research literature were found to be invalid indictors of a technology's science dependence. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Our approach is based on an advanced bibliometric analysis with novel elements to assess the influence and dissemination of research results and to measure interdisciplinarity. In order to adjust the contrast with 'single-disciplinary' research assessment, we represent application-oriented research by an interdisciplinary research profile that with a clear distinction between basic and applied research. Application of our approach to support an international audit of the Nutrition and Food Research Institute showed that advanced bibliometric analysis allows assessment beyond conventional academic standards. An important policy-relevant implication, strongly supported by the audit committee, is that realignment of an applied research institute toward a stronger market-orientation should not be at the expense of basic research. Not only is basic research the cradle of future applications, it acts also directly as an institutional visiting card for customers to show scientific thoroughness. A novel element is a disciplinary breakdown of knowledge dissemination by a research institute based on a field-specific analysis of all publications citing the work of the institute. It reveals the mutual boosting of applied and basic research. Particularly, the analysis of publications citing applied work can be regarded as a novel indicator for potential users of knowledge and with that, new markets. In this context, it is important to compare actors (e.g. countries, institutes) involved in citing publications with those involved in the institute's international co-operation.
