Abstract:
OBJECTIVES: To analyze the evolution of bibliometric indexes for research on
smoking published in ARCHIVOS DE BRONCONEUMOLOGIA (AB) from 1970 through
2000, to compare indexes for each of the three decades under study, and to
compare the indexes for smoking research with those of other topics in
respiratory medicine.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: We reviewed all articles published by AB between 1970
and 2000, recording data on 13 characteristics.


RESULTS: Of 2,198 documents reviewed, 45 (2.04%) were about smoking; 71% of
them were published in the last five years. The research came mainly from
the most productive four provinces and five hospitals, which produced 68.1%
and 50% of the reports, respectively. The first authors were pneumologists
in 78.4% of the articles. The productivity index was 1.65, and the mean
number of authors per document (collaboration index) was 4 +/- 3. The total
number of references was 1,230 and the number of references per paper was
27.3 +/- 26. AB was the most cited journal. We found no change in
obsolescence indexes. Insularity and self citation indexes tended to
increase. Topics with productivity indexes that were higher than the index
for smoking research were asthma (p < 0.05), respiratory insufficiency and
sleep disorders, non-tuberculosis infection, oncology and pleural and
interstitial diseases (p < 0.001). The insularity index was higher for
tuberculosis than for smoking (p < 0.05).


CONCLUSIONS: Smoking research increased considerably during the period
studied. Pulmonologists predominated among the authors of studies on
smoking. Bibliometric indexes for smoking evolved as did the indexes for
other research. The most frequently cited journal was AB.
