    A bibliometric analysis of publications on trauma in critical care medicine during 1980–2018: a holistic view
    (Turkish Association of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2020) Karaca O.; Güldoğan, Cem Emir
    BACKGROUND: There is not a holistic bibliometric study evaluating the publications in the literature even though trauma is a paramount subject in the field of critical care. This study aimed to investigate the important articles and journals receiving the most citations and publishing the most articles, revealing international cooperation and uncovering trend topics in this subject as a consequence of analyzing articles on trauma in the field of critical care published between 1980 and 2018 using bibliometric analysis methods. METHODS: Publication scan in this study was performed using Web of Science (WoS) database. Literature review was limited to only publications indexed in the field of Critical Care. “Trauma” was used as the keyword to reach relevant publications. Linear regression analysis was performed to predict the number of articles foreseen to be published in the upcoming years in the subject of trauma. RESULTS: As a result of the literature review, a total of 10851 publications were found. Six thousand four hundred and eighty-nine (59.8%) of these publications were under the category of article. First three countries with the most publications were respectively as the United States of America (4096) (63.1%), Canada (401) and Germany (380). Turkey ranked 21 with 41 publications. The article titled “Evaluating trauma care-the triss method” published in 1987 had received the most citations. The journal with the most publications and citations was “Journal of Trauma Injury Infection and Critical Care”. CONCLUSION: This study will be a useful guide to all scientists and clinicians conducting research on trauma in critical care. © 2020 Turkish Association of Trauma and Emergency Surgery.

    Effects of modic type 1 changes in the vertebrae on low back pain
    (Elsevier Inc., 2019) Hanımoğlu H.; Çevik, Serdar; Yılmaz H.; Kaplan A.; Çalış F.; Katar S.; Evran, Ş.; Akkaya, E.; Karaca O.
    Objective: The present study examined the physical extent of Modic type 1 (MT1) changes and other phenotypic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in the vertebrae of patients with low back pain (LBP) and MT1 changes. We also identified any correlations of these findings with the severity of pain and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). The relationship between the presence of pain and MT1 changes has been examined in several studies. However, to the best of our knowledge, no study has assessed the relationships between pain severity and ODI and the total vertebral area of MT1 involvement. Methods: After excluding any patient with MT2 or MT3 changes, 49 patients with a diagnosis of LBP and MT1 changes demonstrated on MRI were included. MT1 involvement area, disc height, number of Schmorl's nodes, disc degeneration (Pfirrmann grade), and cross-sectional area of the lumbar muscles were obtained via MRI. Additionally, patient demographic data, body mass index, physical activity level, and disability (ODI) scores were assessed. Results: The total vertebral area of MT1 involvement correlated significantly and positively with the ODI (P = 0.001). In the multivariate linear regression model, with ODI as the dependent variable and age, mean Pfirrmann grade, total vertebral area of MT1 involvement, and sex as independent variables, only the total vertebral area of MT1 involvement was significantly associated with the ODI. Conclusions: A significant positive correlation was noted between the vertebral MT1 involvement extent and changes in the ODI. Other MRI features of patients with LBP were not related to pain severity or ODI. © 2018 Elsevier Inc.
