Mapping out the bibliometric characteristics of classic articles published in a Taiwanese academic journal in dentistry: A scopus-based analysis. J Dent Sci 2023; 18:1493-1509. [PMID: 37799889 PMCID: PMC10547996 DOI: 10.1016/j.jds.2023.03.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Background/purpose Since its inception, the Journal of Dental Sciences (JDS) has aimed to publish quality articles relevant to all fields in dentistry. The purpose of this study was to analyze the bibliometric characteristics and dissected associated factors correlated with citation counts of classic articles published in the JDS. Materials and method Scopus® database was used to search the qualified articles published in JDS from 2009 to 2021. The bibliometric parameters, including journal impact factor (JIF), self-citation, study design, research field, geographic, country and institute of origin, inter-institute, inter-nation collaboration, keywords hotness and associated factors correlated with citation counts of classic articles were analyzed. Results One hundred and eight articles from Scopus® database were eligible for analysis. The citation counts of classic articles ranged from 12 to 192, the average citation was 22.02. The most common study design was the in vitro/in vivo, followed by the cross-sectional study, and the major research field were Dental Materials. The most productive country and institute is Taiwan, and Chung Shan Medical University, respectively. The trend of inter-institute (71.03%) and inter-nation (11.22%) collaboration steadily increased since 2009. By using the multivariable linear regression model, Preventive and Community Dentistry in the research field significantly increased the citation counts. Conclusion Despite its limitations, the escalating trends in JIFs, and JIFs without self-citations, and inter-nation and inter-institute collaboration of classic articles were noticed. Of all the dissected associated factors, Preventive and Community Dentistry in the research field significantly increased the citation counts of classic article.

Abstract
Periodontitis and chronic kidney disease are chronic conditions with high community prevalence across the world. Patients with chronic kidney disease have been noted to have a high burden of periodontitis, and several shared risk factors have been associated with the prevalence and severity of both conditions. However, the precise relationship between the two conditions, and the extent to which each may contribute to the development of the other, remains a matter of debate. The goals of the present work were to: (a) provide the most current and relevant literature overview of the association between periodontitis and chronic kidney disease; (b) explore mechanisms underlying this association; and (c) determine if evidence exists for an independent association between these conditions. We also assessed whether improved oral hygiene and periodontal treatment could reduce the risk of developing chronic kidney disease and, if so, what protocols these strategies involve. Finally, we aimed to reveal gaps in our current knowledge to delineate the directions of future research. Although the exact relationship between these two conditions has not yet been defined, we highlight the importance of the interprofessional interaction between dental practitioners and the nephrology team and the importance of oral health assessment in the management of chronic kidney disease.

Yu HC, Chen TP, Chang YC. Inflammatory bowel disease as a risk factor for periodontitis under Taiwanese National Health Insurance Research database. J Dent Sci 2018; 13:242-247. [PMID: 30895127 PMCID: PMC6388870 DOI: 10.1016/j.jds.2018.03.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2017] [Revised: 02/05/2018] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprised Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is a mucosal immune response that affects gastroenterological tract. The association between IBD and periodontitis was inconclusive. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between IBD and periodontitis by using a register-based dataset. MATERIALS AND METHODS The dataset conducting in this retrospective cohort study was obtained from the National Health Insurance Research database (NHIRD) in Taiwan. For IBD group, conditionally selected control subjects were matched in 1:4 ratio from general population. The risk of periodontitis among IBD group comparing with non-IBD group was calculated by multivariable Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS In IBD cohort, 27 IBD patients (7 Crohn's disease and 20 ulcerative colitis) with catastrophic illness registry were identified. 108 controls were selected as non-IBD cohort. The median follow-up period was 3.00 years in the IBD group and 3.15 years in the non-IBD group. The cumulative incidence of IBD was 4.32 per 100,000 persons. After adjusting for several confounding factors, IBD group had higher risk for developing periodontitis than non-IBD group (adjusted HR: 1.82; 95% CI: 1.09-3.03). To further stratification with subtype, Crohn's disease group had significantly higher risk of periodontitis (adjusted HR: 3.95; 95% CI: 1.59-9.82). CONCLUSIONS Taken together, this retrospective cohort study showed that patients with IBD increase risk of having periodontitis comparing with non-IBD group, especially in Crohn's disease subgroup.

J Formos Med Assoc 2018; 117:374-380. [PMID: 29428194 DOI: 10.1016/j.jfma.2018.01.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2017] [Revised: 01/17/2018] [Accepted: 01/22/2018] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Oral leukoplakia (OL) is one of the clinically diagnosed oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) with an increased risk of oral cancer development. In this study, we investigated the malignant transformation of OL in Taiwanese population. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was analyzed from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. A comparison cohort was randomly frequency-matched with the OL cohort according to age, sex, and index year. Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) and oral lichen planus (OLP) were further stratified to evaluate the possible synergistic effects for OL-associated malignant transformation. RESULTS In this cohort, 102 (5.374%) of 1898 OL patients were observed to transform into oral cancer. The malignant transformation rate was 26.40-fold in the OL cohort than in the comparison cohort after adjustment (95% confidence intervals 18.46-37.77). To further stratify with OSF and OLP, OL with OSF (58.38; 95% confidence intervals 34.61-98.50) and OL with OLP (36.88; 95% confidence intervals 8.90-152.78) had higher risk of malignant transformation rate than OL alone (27.01; 95% confidence intervals 18.91-38.59). The Kaplan-Meier plot revealed the free of malignant transformation rate was significant over the 13 years follow-up period (log-rank test, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION OL patients exhibited a significantly higher risk of malignant transformation than those without OL. In addition, both OSF and OLP could enhance malignant transformation in patients with OL. However, further studies are required to identify the histopathological and clinical parameters in the pathogenesis of malignant transformation among OPMDs.
