Abstract This paper presents an approach of unsupervised learning of clusters from a citation database, and applies it to a large corpus of articles in philosophy to give an account of the structure of the discipline. Following a list of journals from the PhilPapers-archive, 68,152 records were downloaded from the Reuters Web of Science-Database. Their citation data was processed using dimensionality reduction and clustering. The resulting clusters were identified, and the results are graphically represented. They suggest that the division of analytic and Continental philosophy in the considered timespan is overstated; that analytical, in contrast to Continental philosophy does not form a coherent group in recent philosophy; and that metaphors about the disciplinary structure should focus on the coherence and interconnectedness of a multitude of smaller and larger subfields.

Objective: During the last three decades newly formed pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) research networks have been publishing research. A desire of these networks is to produce and disseminate research to improve patient health and outcomes. To quantitatively analyze and compare the literature by PEM research networks globally through numeric and visual bibliometrics. Methods: A bibliometric analysis of articles published from 1994 to 2019 (26 years) by authors from PEM research networks globally were retrieved using PubMed, Web of Science (Thompson Reuters) and accessing individual research network databases. Bibliometric analysis was performed utilizing Web of Science, VOSviewer and Dimensions. Research was quantified to ascertain the number of articles, related articles, citations and Altmetric attention score. Results: A total of 493 articles were published across nine research networks in three decades. Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network (PECARN) produced the most articles, citations, and h-index of all networks. We identified three main groupings of productive authors across the networks who collaborate globally. The gender of the first author was female in 46% of publications and the corresponding author(s) was female in 45%. A non-significant moderate positive correlation between the number of years publishing and the number of publications was identified. There was non-significant moderate negative association between the number of countries in a network and total publications per annum. Conclusions: This study is the first bibliometric analysis of publications from PEM research networks that collaborate globally. The gender gap in first authorship compared to high impact medical journals and high impact emergency medicine journals is narrower. Exploring the relationships of numerical bibliometric indicators and visualizations of productivity will benefit the understanding of the generation, reach and dissemination of PEM research within the global research community.

Abstract Purpose The main goal of this study is to discover the scientific evolution of Cancer-Related Symptoms in Complementary and Alternative Medicine research area, analyzing the articles indexed in the Web of Science database from 1980 to 2013. Design/Methodology/Approach A co-word science mapping analysis is performed under a longitudinal framework (1980 to 2013). The documental corpus is divided into two subperiods, 1980–2008 and 2009–2013. Thus, the performance and impact rates, and conceptual evolution of the research field are shown. Findings According to the results, the co-word analysis allows us to identify 12 main thematic areas in this emerging research field: anxiety, survivors and palliative care, meditation, treatment, symptoms and cancer types, postmenopause, cancer pain, low back pain, herbal medicine, children, depression and insomnia, inflammation mediators, and lymphedema. The different research lines are identified according to the main thematic areas, centered fundamentally on anxiety and suffering prevention. The scientific community can use this information to identify where the interest is focused and make decisions in different ways. Research limitation Several limitations can be addressed: 1) some of the Complementary and Alternative Medicine therapies may not have been included; 2) only the documents indexed in Web of Science are analyzed; and 3) the thematic areas detected could change if another dataset was considered. Practical implications The results obtained in the present study could be considered as an evidence-based framework in which future studies could be built. Originality/value Currently, there are no studies that show the thematic evolution of this research area.
