在过去的两年里，出现了许多定量分析科学论文的研究。引文分析是一种常用的文献计量方法。尽管有一些局限性，它仍然是衡量一篇文章对特定领域，专业或期刊影响的一个很好的方法。本研究的目的是分析减肥手术领域100篇被引用次数最多的文章的质量和特点。使用汤姆森路透社知识网列出了1945年至2014年发表的所有减肥手术相关文章（BSRA）。选取354种外科和高影响力综合类期刊中BSRA被引次数前100名进行进一步分析，其中大部分论文发表于21世纪初（60%）。被引用次数最多的前100篇文章发表在354种期刊中的17种。领先的国家是美国，其次是加拿大和澳大利亚。大多数发表的文章（76%）为临床经验文章。最常见的证据等级为IV级（42%）。许多减肥手术的里程碑式论文已被纳入本文献计量学研究。在过去十年中，该领域的研究活动明显增加。很明显，一篇文章的引用次数与其证据水平无关;这一事实在外科研究中越来越受到重视。
Many studies quantitatively analyzing scientific papers have appeared in the last 2 years. Citation analysis is a commonly used bibliometric method. In spite of some limitations, it remains a good measure of the impact an article has on a specific field, specialty, or a journal. The aim of this study was to analyze the qualities and characteristics of the 100 most cited articles in the field of bariatric surgery.The Thomson Reuters Web of Knowledge was used to list all bariatric surgery-related articles (BSRA) published from 1945 to 2014. The top 100 most cited BSRA in 354 surgical and high impact general journals were selected for further analysis.Most of the articles were published in the 2000s (60 %). The top 100 most cited were published in 17 of the 354 journals. Leading countries were USA followed by Canada and Australia. Most of the articles published (76 %) were clinical experience articles. The most common level of evidence was IV (42 %).Many of the milestone papers in bariatric surgery have been included in this bibliometric study. A huge increase in research activity during the last decade is clearly visible in the field. It is apparent that the number of citations of an article is not related to its level of evidence; a fact that is increasingly being emphasized in surgical research.
