赫希指数（h-index）是一个衡量研究数量和质量的指标，同时考虑了单个作者的出版物和引用。没有以前的工作评估学术生产力和贡献的文献成人全关节置换术外科医生。本研究使用h指数来衡量学术影响力，并确定与关节置换奖学金教师的生产力相关的特征。成人重建奖学金计划通过美国髋关节和膝关节外科医生协会网站获得。通过旧金山弗朗西斯科比赛和程序特定的网站，程序的特点（认证理事会研究生医学教育批准，学术联系，地区，研究员的数量，研究员的研究要求），相关的教师，和教师的具体特点（性别，学术头衔，正式的奖学金培训，在实践中的年数）。H指数和总教师出版物作为主要的结果措施。多变量线性回归确定统计学显著性。确定了66个成人全关节重建奖学金项目：30%获得了研究生医学教育认证理事会的批准，73%具有学术联系。在这些机构中，确定了375名成人重建外科医生; 98.1%为男性，85.3%接受过正式的关节成形术研究员培训。每位教师的平均出版物数量为50.1（标准差76.8;范围0-588）;平均h指数为12.8（标准差13.8;范围0-67）。研究员人数、教师职称、实践年限和正式研究员培训与h指数和总出版物均呈显著正相关（P <0.05）。在这项工作中提出的统计概述可以帮助全关节外科医生定量基准对他们的学术表现对他们的同行。
The Hirsch index (h-index) is a measure that evaluates both research volume and quality—taking into consideration both publications and citations of a single author. No prior work has evaluated academic productivity and contributions to the literature of adult total joint replacement surgeons. This study uses h-index to benchmark the academic impact and identify characteristics associated with productivity of faculty members at joint replacement fellowships. Adult reconstruction fellowship programs were obtained via the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons website. Via the San Francisco match and program-specific websites, program characteristics (Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education approval, academic affiliation, region, number of fellows, fellow research requirement), associated faculty members, and faculty-specific characteristics (gender, academic title, formal fellowship training, years in practice) were obtained. H-index and total faculty publications served as primary outcome measures. Multivariable linear regression determined statistical significance. Sixty-six adult total joint reconstruction fellowship programs were identified: 30% were Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education approved and 73% had an academic affiliation. At these institutions, 375 adult reconstruction surgeons were identified; 98.1% were men and 85.3% had formal arthroplasty fellowship training. Average number of publications per faculty member was 50.1 (standard deviation 76.8; range 0-588); mean h-index was 12.8 (standard deviation 13.8; range 0-67). Number of fellows, faculty academic title, years in practice, and formal fellowship training had a significant (P < .05) positive correlation with both h-index and total publications. The statistical overview presented in this work can help total joint surgeons quantitatively benchmark their academic performance against that of their peers.
