Identifying historical roots in paediatric echocardiography using RPYS

Echocardiography is a non-invasive diagnostic tool which can be performed on children of all ages including foetuses and new-borns, due to the fact that no radiation is involved. No historical bibliometric study or influential papers in paediatric echocardiography has been performed yet, so our study was aimed to close this gap. References Publication Years Spectrography (RPYS), more precisely CitedReferenceExplorer (CRE) software tool was employed to achieve this aim. We identified 35 influential papers and validation showed that both, the RPYS method and CRE tool performed satisfactorily.

Bibliometric Profile of Nursing Research in Ex Yugoslavian Countries

The development of modern nursing and consequently nursing research in Ex- Yugoslavia is about a century old. To profile the development, volume, and content of nursing research we completed a performance and spatial bibliometric analysis combined with synthetic content analysis to identify the most productive countries and institutions, most prolific source titles, country cooperation, publication production trends, the content of research and hot topics. The corpus was harvested from the Web of Science All databases and contained 1380 papers. Slovenia was the most productive country, followed by Croatia and Serbia. The synthetic content analysis demonstrated that nursing research in ex-Yugoslavian countries is growing both in scope and number of publications, notwithstanding the fact that research content differs between countries and it seems that each country is focused on their local health problems. A substantial part of the research is published in national journals in national languages however, it is noteworthy to note that some ex-Yugoslavian authors have succeeded in publishing their research in top nursing journals. The study also revealed substantial international cooperation especially among ex-Yugoslavian countries and European Union.
