Abstract
Objective:
This study aimed to present
characteristics of internationally published articles about emergency medicine
originating from Turkey between 2002-2012 years.
Methods:
For our evaluation, all articles
about emergency medicine published in Science Citation Index and Science
Citation Index Expanded between 2002-2012 years were included. The articles
were categorized according to subjects, hospitals, departments, years. The
International Scientific Indexing Web of Knowledge was searched for all
articles.
Results: A total of 1812 articles were included. Of all
articles, 64,3% (n=1165) were published in the last five years. Publications in
the last five years were detected to increase at a rate of 4,6% per year. 78,1% (n=1416) of the articles were published in non-Emergency Medicine journals.
“Turkish Clinics” journal in the non-Emergency Medicine journals group, with 46
articles, and the "Turkish Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery" in the
Emergency Medicine group, with 134 articles, were the preferred journals. The
most popular subjects were trauma, at 14,7% (n=266), followed by emergency
medicine and management, at 14% (n=253).
Conclusion:
Significant publication growth was
detected related to the development of Emergency Medicine in Turkey. The preference of non- Emergency Medicine journals, trauma as the most popular subject, and the
effect of university hospitals were the interesting results of this study. The
low number of multicenter trials and published articles in high impact factor
journals have led us to consider the importance of publication quality, which
requires additional effort.

Abstract
Amaç:
Türkiye'de Acil Tıp alanında
uluslararası literatürde yayınlanmış bilimsel çalışmaların genel karakteristik
özelliklerini ortaya koymaktır.
Gereç
ve Yöntem: Değerlendirme için ABD’de Science
Citation Index ve Science Citation Index Expanded 'ta 2002-2012 yılları
arasında Acil Tıp alanında yayınlanan makaleler seçilmiştir. Seçilen makaleler
konulara, hastanelere, bölümlere ve yıllara göre sınıflandırılmıştır. Araştırma
bilgisayar ortamında “International Scientific Indexing Web of Knowledge”
kullanılarak yapılmıştır.
Bulgular:
Çalışmaya dâhil edilen 1812
makalenin %64,3’ünün (n=1165) son 5 yılda yayınlandığı, son beş yılda artış
oranının yılda %4,6 olduğu saptandı. Tüm makalelerin %78,1’lik (n=1416) bir
oranı acil tıp kategorisi dışındaki dergilerde yayınlanmıştır. Bu kategoride en
popüler dergi 46 makale ile "Türkiye Klinikleri" dergisi olurken, acil tıp
kategorisinde ilk sırayı 134 makale ile "Ulusal Travma ve Acil Cerrahi Dergisi" almıştır. En sık travma %14,7 (n=266) ve acil tıp ve yönetimi %14 (n=253)
konularında makale gönderilmiştir.
Sonuç: Türk acil tıbbındaki gelişmelere paralel olarak
uluslararası bilimsel yayınların sayısı da her geçen yıl katlanarak
artmaktadır. Acil tıp kategorisi dışındaki dergilerin daha çok tercih edilmesi,
acil tıp konulu yayınların çokluğu, üniversite hastanelerinin katkısı dikkat
çekicidir. Çok merkezli ve etki faktörü yüksek dergilerde yayınlanan
çalışmaların azlığı yayın sayısı kadar yayın kalitesi konusuna da önem verilmesi
gerektiğini düşündürmektedir.
