AIIMS was the leading institution when other indices were calculated.
Among the most-cited articles, more than 80% had first/ corresponding authors from outside India. This has been the findings of a study, conducted by the department of Physiology of the Government Medical College and Department of Pharmacology, PGI published in the journal of The Association of Physicians of India.
AIIMS, New Delhi was the leading institution in publications and citations. A detailed analysis of the top 20 papers with respect to the number of citations, total impact factor of the journals, and median (range) of impact factor followed a pattern similar to that seen for the overall publication scenario, with AIIMS and PGIMER leading followed by the other institutions.
In the top papers, the corresponding authors and the first authors belonged to the same institutions, but for the top five among the selected 10 institutions, more than 80% of the papers had first/corresponding authors from outside the country, mostly from US or UK.
Top 10 medical institutes of national importance were considered. These institutions published the highest number of papers with AIIMS and PGIMER leading by a fairly large margin, accounting for more publications and citations than the next eight institutions combined. “We used Scopus database to generate a list of total number of publications from each of these institutions, yearwise list in the last five years, the number of citations, and citations per articles from 2012 to 2016,” said Dr Samir Malhotra, from the department of Pharmacology, PGI and co-author of the publication.
The study also looked at the research output of some of the established, older Medical colleges of India. It was found that these institutions produced nearly 50 papers per year per institute. In contrast, Government Medical College and Hospital-32, Chandigarh, published more than 100 papers per year. When the number of publications over the last five years from these institutions was combined, there was a declining trend. The top institutions, barring BHU, had very few publications listed in Scopus in their earlier years.
