Purpose – The aim of the present study is to analyze the literature growth, author productivity, authorship pattern, average length of articles and country collaboration of cancer research in India. The Indian Journal of Cancer, which shows the progress of ontological sciences in India, was established in 1963. Indian Journal of Cancer is the first and only periodical serving the needs of all the specialties of oncology in India. The journal is the official publication of the Indian Cancer Society and Indian Society of Oncology. Design/methodology/approach – Thirty-nine issues of the Indian Journal of Cancer, published between 2003 and 2012, have been considered for the study. The collected data were recorded in an Excel spreadsheet and analyzed to find the degree of collaboration (DC) between authors, collaboration between countries and authorship pattern. Since the journal publishes research articles, review articles, editorials, letters to the editor, symposiums, forewords, case reports and special articles, only the 244 research articles published during 2003-2012 have been taken into consideration in this study. Findings – The study revealed that multi-authored papers were more common and that the average length of articles was 5-6 pages. Twenty-two countries contributed papers to this journal during the study period. Additional research is needed to assess the impact of diverse dietary habits, religious practices and lifestyles on the prevention of cancer. Originality/value – More than 50 per cent of the world’s cancer burden, in terms of both numbers of cases and deaths, occurs in developing countries and is rising. By 2020, it is estimated that 70 per cent of all cancer cases will be in these lower-income countries, and approximately one-fifth of these will be in India, with its (still increasing) population of over a billion. While research is necessary to inform effective programs, it is also time to move beyond research to act by implementing programs in cancer prevention and treatment. Cancer is disturbing the growing economy of the country, which can be saved by proper handling of this disease.

This study adopts a novel mix of scientometrics, theme-based, citation-based systematic review and interpretative aggregation approach (STCSR-IA) with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) method. It presents a macro-level scientometric analysis of tourism research in coastal, marine and maritime (blue tourism) environments by using 986 research articles published in 130 Scopus-indexed journals from 2000 to 2019. The thematic evolution of research in five time periods of four years each (2000–2003, 2004–2007, 2008–2011, 2012–2015, 2016–2019) was analysed using the authors’ keywords and classified as (a) preliminary (b) transversal stage I (c) transversal stage II and (d) growth stage. The massive evolution of research areas in the growth stage and their themes along with the growing nexus of conceptual relationship within blue tourism is systematically reviewed and presented as a thematic research framework.

<p>The paper presents a scientometric analysis of 200 research articles published in the journal, “Metamorphosis: a journal of management research” from its debut year 2002 to 2016, published in association with India’s one of the top management institutions, IIM Lucknow and with one of the most famous publishing house, Sage. The study focuses on various aspects of the journal such as the distribution of articles, annual growth rate, authorship pattern, authorship productivity, degree of collaboration, collaborative index, country-wise distribution of articles, citation analysis, etc. The study shows that most of the papers, 114 out of 200 (57%) were published by single authors where as 86 out of 200 (43%) were contributed by joint authors. Overall average Degree of Collaboration (DC), average Collaborative Index (CI) and average citation per paper were 0.43, 2.35 and 25.59 respectively. Remarkable collaborative contributors are from India with 81.65% sharing. The study may help those who wish to map the scientometric patterns of journals or institutions or an individual, etc.</p>

Abstract Microplastics pollution of our environment has seen major data reporting in the last decade. Microplastics produce harmful effects on marine organisms and in humans. In this scientometric study, we have evaluated literature between years 2011-2019. Our data shows that publications counts are increasing with an important role for China and its funding agencies in the field. A majority of research articles were published by authors affiliated with Chinese Academy of Sciences. Journals ‘Marine Pollution Bulletin’ and ‘Environmental Pollution’ were identified as important Journals with 273 and 185 research publications, respectively. We have also identified the upcoming research trend and shift from microplastics presence in water to microplastics presence in air. A major shift is observed in year 2017 and United Kingdom is leading this field with 11 publications with top authors affiliated to University of Plymouth. Interestingly, the Journal Environmental Pollution has published the most research articles (~20%). Our co-authorship analysis demonstrated that China (and it’s institutions and authors) is the most collaborative country followed by the United States, together forming top cluster with a link strength of 42. Finally, our analysis provides information about prospective research and emerging trends that can be explored in the coming years.

A Scientometric study was performed on 235 research articles published in the Indian Journal of Veterinary and Animal Sciences Research (IJVASR). For the current analysis, six volumes of the journal totalling 30 issues from 2016 to 2020 were considered. The amounts of contributions, authorship patterns, author productivity, average article length, and average keyword density have all been examined. Only 20 of the 235 contributions were single-authored, while the rest were multi-authored, with an average degree of collaboration of 0.91 and a week of collaboration between the writers. The increasing tendency of co-authored publications was highlighted by the pattern of co-authorship. According to the research, author productivity is 0.26.

The authors in this article first identify the extent to which research articles published in three American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) journals included participants, age birth to 18 years, from international backgrounds (i.e., residence outside of the United States), and go on to describe associated publication patterns over the past 12 years. These patterns then provide a context for examining variation in the conceptualization of ethnicity on an international scale. Further, the authors examine terminology and categories used by 11 countries where research participants resided. Each country uses a unique classification system. Thus, it can be expected that descriptions of the ethnic characteristics of international participants involved in research published in ASHA journal articles will widely vary.

The relationship that exists between design, policies and governance is quite complex and presents academic researchers continuously with new opportunities to engage and explore aspects relevant to design management. Over the past years, we have witnessed how the earlier focus on developing policies for design has shifted to an interest in understanding the ways in which design contributes to policy-making and policy implementation. Research into policies for design has produced insights into how policy-making decisions can advance professional impact and opportunities for designers and the creative industries. This research looked into how design researchers and design practitioners themselves can benefit from specific policies that support design activities and create the space for emerging design processes.
