Modeling clinical data from publications
Abstract
Medical data is becoming increasingly available. Access to such data is generally restricted and researchers cannot access it easily. On the other hand, clinical trial data is freely available and published without restriction for access to the public at the summary level. With proper analysis, it is possible to extract valuable conclusions from such data. This paper will review new methods to look at such public data and will discuss possible future trends.

On the influence of uncited publications on a researcher’s h-index
AbstractA researcher’s output comprises cited and uncited papers. Nevertheless, the conventional h-index considers only the cited papers; and, in particular, awards a score to the so-called high-impact papers. Consequently, the h-index fails to assess the ...
Approaching the “reward triangle”: General analysis of the presence of funding acknowledgments and “peer interactive communication” in scientific publications
Understanding the role of acknowledgments given by researchers in their publications has been a recurrent challenge in the bibliometric field, but relatively unexplored until now. This study presents a general bibliometric analysis on the new “funding ...
