Bibliometric analysis of orthopaedic related publications by Indian authors from the last decade.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 10 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeBibliometric studies have been established methods of analysing publications on a particular topic. These studies have been done on various orthopaedic topics and are increasing. The advantages of these studies have been highlighted in previous publications. Although some studies have been done on Indian publications from other specialties, those analysing Indian Orthopaedic Publications are lacking.
methodsWe performed a search in Scopus to look for all publications related to orthopaedics from India. Our search strategy in Scopus included ((TITLE-ABS-KEY(Orthopaedics OR Orthopaedics) AND AFFIL(India)) AND PUBYEAR > 2009 AND PUBYEAR < 2020) which resulted in 3270 articles on 02/11/2021. We analyzed the most publishing universities, city, state, specialty, authors, and anatomic location of these publications. We also mined the data to draw word clouds based on data obtained from the titles of articles, keywords and the affiliations of each of the articles published.
resultsTamil Nadu and New Delhi and their institutes appear to be the epicenter of publication activities in Orthopaedics in India. There has been a healthy trend of growth of articles in the orthopaedic specialty. Since there is a significant overlap of technology and engineering, it is not surprising to see engineering and technology institutes among the top 10 published institutes and even journals for the publications on orthopaedics.
conclusionThere has been a steady increase in the number of publications in the last decade. New Delhi and its Universities and Institutes appear to contribute the majority of citations and publications related to orthopaedics. Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics and Trauma was the most publishing journal for Indian authors on Orthopaedic related articles.
