Enseñanza en Investigación en Urología. Análisis Bibliométrico

Resumen

Objetivo Caracterizar el panorama de la educación en investigación en urología mediante un análisis bibliométrico.

Métodos Realizamos un análisis bibliométrico, utilizando artículos publicados entre 1955- 2019, sin restricción en el idioma. Se utilizaron las herramientass estadísticass PubMed, FABUMED y PubReminer para la obtención de la información de las variables y realización del análisis bibliométrico. Analisis de mapeo utilizando el software: VOSviewer,. Para la obtención del factor de impacto (FI), se utilizó el Journal Citation Reports 2017/2018.

Resultados Desde 1955 hasta 2019 se publicaron 718 referencias en 245 revistas. A partir del 2000 encontramos un aumento significativo en el número de publicaciones con un punto de corte en el año 2009. Las revistas con mayores publicaciones fueron: J Urol (8.6%), BJU Int (6.8%) y Urology (6.5%). De las 20 revistas con mayor número de publicaciones, sólo desolo 5 un FI mayor a 3. Los paises con mayor publicacion fueron: Estados Unidos (23,6%), Reino Unido (20,2%). El país de América Latina con mayor publicacion fué Brasil (0,8%).

Conclusiones El estado de la educación en investigación en urología demuestra un crecimiento en la producción científica , con una baja contribución por parte de los países latinoamericanos. Para poder desarrollar una creación intelectual de calidad se deberá invertir tiempo y recursos en un adecuado entrenamiento en investigación en los programas de formación en urología.

Abstract

Objective Characterize the panorama of urology research education through a bibliometric analysis.

Methods We performed a bibliometric analisys, using articles published between 1955-2019, without restriction on language. The statistical tools PubMed, FABUMED and PubReminer were used to obtain the information on the variables and perform the bibliometric analysis. We performed a bibliometric mapping analysis using the software program: VOSviewer. To obtain the impact factor (FI), the Journal Citation Reports 2017/2018 was used.

Results From 1955 to 2019, 718 references were published in 245 journals. Starting in 2000, we found a significant increase in the number of publications with a cut-off point in 2009. The journals with the largest publications were: J Urol (with 8.6%), BJU Int (with 6.8%) and, Urology (with 6.5%). Of the 20 journals with the highest number of publications, only of the 20, 5 had an IF greater than 3. The countries with the highest publication were: United States (23.6%), United Kingdom (20.2%). The Latin American country with the highest publication was Brazil with (0.8%).

Conclusions The state of education in urology research shows a growth in scientific production with a high impact factor, with a decrease without finding a significant contribution from Latin American countries. In order to develop a quality intellectual creation, time and resources should be invested in adequate research training in urology training programs.
