中国灵长类文献纵览

把1870—2001年来自美国“现代灵长类文献题录数据库”、“维普中文数据库”及“中国灵长类研究文献题录”的资料按4个时期（I：1870—1949；II：1950—1965；III：1966—1977；IV：1978—2001）分类整理。此外，使用了“科学引文数据库（扩展版）”。结果如下：（1）1870—2001年共有2 052篇文献，2个文献数量高峰分别出现于1950—1965和1978—2001年；科研部门所发表的论文占54.2%，并随时间而增加；而国外部门则随之减少。（2）2 052篇文献中，超过9%的文献为SCI所收录，其中1966—1977年被SCI收录的文献百分比最高；在全部被SCI收录的文献中又以科研部门的占优势（59.1%）；但国外部门则以其30.1%的文献被SCI收录而领先。（3）统计了灵长类研究9个领域文献百分比及其变化，其中1978—2001间生态学和行为、神经生物学、繁殖和饲养快速发展；化石灵长类、形态学和解剖学减少；分类及分布、细胞及分子进化显得不甚突出；在第II时期和第 IV时期疾病防治研究相当多；保护生物学得到越来越多的关注。第IV时期作者数量最多，但每个作者的文献平均数却不如第I时期。一般地说，在SCI收录的作者中以中国作者居多，但在第I时期唯一被SCI收录的作者则是一名外国学者；在第III时期外国作者占被收录作者数的60%。     

雪豹（Uncia uncia）研究的文献计量评价

通过对1950—2010年SCI收录和1989—2010年CSCD收录的雪豹(Uncia uncia)研究文献分析,从年度文献数量变化、国家/地区分布、主要研究机构、期刊分布、发表文献作者、基金资助机构、刊载文献类型、学科类别和语种分布9个方面,对雪豹研究文献的分布规律和研究现状进行了统计分析。结果表明:在SCI上发表雪豹研究论文的国家排名依次是美(50.6%)、英(16.5%)、印度(12.5%)和中国(5.6%);在文献量机构排名方面,国际雪豹基金会和英国爱丁堡大学并列第一,中国科学院排名第五;中国的主要合作国家中包括了美、英和中亚国家(吉尔吉斯斯坦、蒙古)。无论是分布范围还是数量,中国雪豹资源都居于世界第一,而研究却不相匹配,国内在这方面还仍需努力。

Scientific publications of Costa Rica in Science Citation Index bibliometric analysis of the period 1999-2001

This study analyzed the publications of authors from Costa Rican institutions that were included in the Science Citation Index (SCI) during 1999-2001. Out of the 722 references detected, distributed in 328 journals, 90.7% corresponded to original research articles. The total productivity figures showed a moderately increasing trend, both in absolute and population-adjusted terms, in concordance with previous data recorded for the period 1980-1998. The contribution of Revista de Biología Tropical to these figures corresponded to 10.0%, 8.9%, and 19.1%, for the years 1999, 2000, and 2001, respectively. The subject distribution of articles followed a similar pattern to that described for 1980-1998, with a predominance of biomedical (33.3%) and biological (27.5%) sciences, followed by agronomical (15.5%) sciences, chemistry (13.6%), physics (5.0%), geological sciences (3.6%), and mathematics (1.5%). Citation analyses for individual publications (up to July 15, 2002) revealed that only 45.2% of the articles had been cited at least once. The ten most cited references were analyzed, varying from 26 to 114 citations. The average citation per article was 2.60, and the average number of authors per article was 2.92. In agreement with data from 1980-1998, the University of Costa Rica appeared as the institution with highest productivity of SCI publications during 1999-2001, with a contribution of 50.0%. The percentage of publications performed without the participation of foreign co-authors showed a change in its decreasing trend of 1980-1998, stabilizing near the range of 25-30% during the period 1999-2001.     

Comparison of Primatological Literature in Latin American, European and African Countries

I compare the primatological literature in 4 Latin American (Brazil, Perú, Mexico and Argentina) 2 European (Great Britain and France) and one African (Kenya) countries with regard to: (1) total number of publications; (2) productivity of scientists; (3) quality of the publications; and (4) the range of subjects studied. Data are from Current Primate References (CPR; 1985–1994). Publications included in the sample show an address from the countries considered. The results showed that GB and France had a far larger number of publications than the other countries. They have respectively >7 and 4 times more authors than Brazil, the country with the highest number of authors among Latin American and African countries. But the mean number of publications per author shows little difference among the 7 countries. The quality of publications as measured by the percentage indexed by ISI shows that, GB and France fare much better than the Latin American countries. Kenya did not follow the pattern of the other underdeveloped countries and showed a high percentage of indexed publications. Not all subjects reviewed in CPR were studied by scientists from the 7 countries. GB and France presented the widest range of subjects. Scientists in countries with greater primate diversity concentrated their publications in behavior, ecology and conservation, colony management and general primatology with the exception of Kenya. These results suggest that scientific production in Latin American countries can be increased by increasing the number of scientists, either through educational programs or via incentives for the career. However, more specific action is needed to improve the quality of publications and the range of subjects studied.     

An analysis of the scientific publications of the A. A. Bogomolets Institute of Physiology of the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine]

Scientific publications from three sectors of the Institute have analyzed for the period since 1979 till 1988 inclusive. The analysis is based on data of annual reference books Science Citation Index (SCI) and lists of publications of each researcher of the Institute. It is shown that with almost equal numerical strength of researchers and similar number of publications the sector of molecular physiology contributed 43.6% to cited works 48.2% of these works are included into database of SCI. Such indices for the sectors of neurophysiology and physiology of visceral systems accounted for 33%, 33.4% and 23.4, 18.4% respectively. It is of interest that 47.5% of references to the cited works of the molecular physiology sector were made by foreign scientists and self-citation constituted 17.4%, while for the other sectors such indices had a reverse relationship. The problem on objectification of estimation of research is under discussion.     

Medical Students in Canadian Universities: Report of Statistics, 1966-67

Enrolment in the 13 Canadian medical schools in 1966-67 reached a new high of 4230, an increase of 5.1% over 1965-66. The percentage of women among medical students (12.1%) was close to that of the preceding three years. There has been a levelling off in the decline of students from outside Canada in 1966-67, when 9.5% of medical students were non-Canadian. The decline had been primarily in the number of American students, which continues. The number of students from Commonwealth countries has shown a steady increase during the eight-year period under review; in 1966-67, they make up nearly one-half of all non-Canadian students. It was noted that 18.5% of overseas students came to Canada under governmental or intergovernmental sponsorship. Of the Canadian students, 94% came from the “home” provinces of the medical schools.     

Chemical and physical restraint of nonhuman primates.

Numerous publications on primate restraint and anesthesiology have appeared in recent years. This reflects the striking growth of interest in medical primatology and of efforts to improve restraint agents and methods to facilitate humane use of primates in research. For access to earlier literature, readers should consult recent textbooks [12; 29, pp. 469--474], reviews on chemical or physical restraint [3, 4, 16, 27, 30, 37], and other valuable publications on these subjects that have appeared since 1965 [1, 20, 23, 36, 40, 42]. In this brief review we consider publications, principally since 1971, that deal with chemical or physical restraint. We also present previously unpublished data on the clinical use in primates of CI 744 (Telazol), a new dissociative anesthetic that until recently has been available only for investigational use.     

黄毛鼠(Rattns rattoides Hodgson)的繁殖

啮齿动物数量的增长速度,归根到底是由其繁殖强度决定的,而繁殖强度主要决定即于雌体的数量,繁殖力和繁殖期的长短等。我们自1963年开始进行广东农田害鼠研究以来,积累了一些黄毛鼠的繁殖材料,现报道如下: 工作方法自1963年3月一1966年6月,逐月在广东斗门县平沙地区,采捕黄毛鼠进行测量和剖检观察性器官状况,记录雄体翠丸是否下降,大小(长x阔)及重量,雌体的子宫角是否有胎仔及胎斑(包括胎仔数和胎斑数)。另在1976年7一9月在花县炭步地区,着重观测雌体的生殖状况。先后共剖检黄毛鼠7471只(雌体3190只,雄体4281只)。同时在室内进行饲养观察,以资比较。     

Extant primates and development of primatology in China: Publications,student training,and funding

China supports the richest non-human primate diversity in the northern hemisphere, providing an excellent opportunity for Chinese primatologists to take a leading role in advancing the study of primatology.Primatology in China began to flourish after 1979. To date, Chinese primatologists have published more than 1 000 papers in journals indexed by the Chinese Science Citation Database and the Web of Science Core Collection, and universities and academic institutions have trained 107 PhD students and 370 Masters students between 1984 and 2016. In total,the National Science Foundation of China has funded129 primate projects(RMB 71.7 million) supporting 59 researchers from 28 organizations. However, previous research has also shown obvious species bias.Rhinopithecus roxellana, Rhinopithecus bieti, and Macaca mulatta have received much greater research attention than other species. Researchers have also tended to continue to study the same species(55.2%)they studied during their Ph D training. To promote the development of primatology in China, we suggest(1)the need for a comprehensive primatology textbook written in Chinese,(2) continued training of more Ph D students, and(3) encouragement to study less well-known primate species.     

A survey of biomedical journals to detect editorial bias and nepotistic behavior

Alongside the growing concerns regarding predatory journal growth, other questionable editorial practices have gained visibility recently. Among them, we explored the usefulness of the Percentage of Papers by the Most Prolific author (PPMP) and the Gini index (level of inequality in the distribution of authorship among authors) as tools to identify journals that may show favoritism in accepting articles by specific authors. We examined whether the PPMP, complemented by the Gini index, could be useful for identifying cases of potential editorial bias, using all articles in a sample of 5,468 biomedical journals indexed in the National Library of Medicine. For articles published between 2015 and 2019, the median PPMP was 2.9%, and 5% of journal exhibited a PPMP of 10.6% or more. Among the journals with the highest PPMP or Gini index values, where a few authors were responsible for a disproportionate number of publications, a random sample was manually examined, revealing that the most prolific author was part of the editorial board in 60 cases (61%). The papers by the most prolific authors were more likely to be accepted for publication within 3 weeks of their submission. Results of analysis on a subset of articles, excluding nonresearch articles, were consistent with those of the principal analysis. In most journals, publications are distributed across a large number of authors. Our results reveal a subset of journals where a few authors, often members of the editorial board, were responsible for a disproportionate number of publications. To enhance trust in their practices, journals need to be transparent about their editorial and peer review practices.

Alongside the growing concerns regarding predatory journal growth, other questionable editorial practices have gained visibility recently. This study explores the relationship between hyper-prolific authors and a journal’s editorial team, finding a subset of journals where a few authors, often members of the editorial board, were responsible for a disproportionate number of publications.     

Past and future trends in cancer and biomedical research: a comparison between Egypt and the World using PubMed-indexed publications

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: PubMed is a free web literature search service that contains almost 21 millions of abstracts and publications with almost 5 million user queries daily. The purposes of the study were to compare trends in PubMed-indexed cancer and biomedical publications from Egypt to that of the world and to predict future publication volumes. METHODS: The PubMed was searched for the biomedical publications between 1991 and 2010 (publications dates). Affiliation was then limited to Egypt. Further limitation was applied to cancer, human and animal publications. Poisson regression model was used for prediction of future number of publications between 2011 and 2020. RESULTS: Cancer publications contributed 23% to biomedical publications both for Egypt and the world. Egyptian biomedical and cancer publications contributed about 0.13% to their world counterparts. This contribution was more than doubled over the study period. Egyptian and world's publications increased from year to year with rapid rise starting the year 2003. Egyptian as well as world's human cancer publications showed the highest increases. Egyptian publications had some peculiarities; they showed some drop at the years 1994 and 2002 and apart from the decline in the animal: human ratio with time, all Egyptian publications in the period 1991-2000 were significantly more than those in 2001-2010 (P<0.05 for all). By 2020, Egyptian biomedical and cancer publications will increase by 158.7% and 280% relative to 2010 to constitute 0.34% and 0.17% of total PubMed publications, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The Egyptian contribution to world's biomedical and cancer publications needs significant improvements through research strategic planning, setting national research priorities, adequate funding and researchers' training.
