Longitudinal behavior of altmetrics in Orthodontic research: a cohort study

Longitudinal behavior of Altmetrics in Orthodontic research: Analysis of the orthodontic journals indexed in the journal citation reports from 2014 to 2018 A first search was carried out, in December 2019, in the inCites JCR database to select orthodontic journals that were included in the category of dentistry, oral surgery, and medicine of the JCR during the period from 2014 to 2018. The online interest generated by the orthodontic research outputs, was observed and tracked through the Dimensions free app https://app.dimensions.ai/discover/publication in the Dimensions database. The search was limited to the nine journals listed in the JCR in 2018, which were the American Journal of Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics (AJODO), The Angle Orthodontist, The European Journal of Orthodontics (EJO), Progress in Orthodontics, Korean Journal of Orthodontics (KJO), Orthodontics & Craniofacial Research (OCR), Journal of Orofacial Orthopedics/Fortschritte der Kieferorthopädie, Seminars in Orthodontics, and the Australian Orthodontic Journal. The Dimension App was used to carry out the search and the following filters were applied: publication year (2018 or 2017 or 2016 or 2015 or 2014); source title (American Journal of Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics OR The European Journal of Orthodontics OR The Angle Orthodontist OR Korean Journal of Orthodontics OR Orthodontics & Craniofacial Research OR Journal of Orofacial Orthopedics/Fortschritte der Kieferorthopädie OR Progress in Orthodontics OR Seminars in Orthodontics OR the Australian Orthodontic Journal). Data were exported to an Excel data sheet (Microsoft Office for Mac version 16.43). In December 2021 a second search was performed on the Dimension Web app by the members of the research team introducing the DOI or the article title of the 3678 items included in the 2019 sample. Here are presented the data related to the 3678 analysed Items divided per journal, the number of altmetrics mentions is presented for each item at both time intervals as well as their change over the studied period.正畸研究中替代计量学（Altmetrics）的纵向行为：2014-2018年期刊引证报告收录正畸期刊分析 2019年12月，本研究首次于inCites期刊引证报告（Journal Citation Reports, JCR）数据库中开展检索，筛选出2014至2018年间隶属于JCR牙科学、口腔外科与医学类别的正畸期刊。本研究通过Dimensions数据库的免费应用程序（https://app.dimensions.ai/discover/publication），对正畸研究成果引发的网络关注度进行观测与追踪。 本次检索限定为2018年JCR收录的9种期刊，具体包括：《美国正畸与牙面正畸杂志》（American Journal of Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics, AJODO）、《安格尔正畸学杂志》（The Angle Orthodontist）、《欧洲正畸学杂志》（European Journal of Orthodontics, EJO）、《正畸进展》（Progress in Orthodontics）、《韩国正畸学杂志》（Korean Journal of Orthodontics, KJO）、《正畸与颅面研究》（Orthodontics & Craniofacial Research, OCR）、《口腔颌面正畸学杂志/Fortschritte der Kieferorthopädie》、《正畸研讨会》（Seminars in Orthodontics）以及《澳大利亚正畸杂志》（Australian Orthodontic Journal）。 本研究使用Dimensions应用程序执行检索，并应用以下筛选条件：出版年份（2014、2015、2016、2017或2018年）；刊名（即前述9种期刊）。 检索所得数据被导出至Excel数据表（Microsoft Office for Mac 16.43版本）。2021年12月，研究团队成员通过Dimensions网页应用程序，针对2019年检索样本中的3678条文献，以数字对象唯一标识符（Digital Object Identifier, DOI）或文章标题开展二次检索。 本研究呈现了针对3678条分析文献的相关数据，按期刊进行分类统计，并展示了每条文献在两个时间节点的替代计量学提及量，以及研究周期内的变化情况。
