Global High-Cited Pediatric Fracture Research: Bibliometric Assessment of Scopus Publications (1929-2024).
Review in Indian journal of orthopaedics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose: This study aimed to explore the bibliometric characteristics of pediatric fracture research from its inception until 2024, specifically focusing on high-cited publications (HCPs) defined as those with 100 or more citations. Key indicators evaluated include publication frequency, citation counts, and collaboration metrics. Methodology: The Scopus database was utilized to identify global publications related to pediatric fractures. The top HCPs were retrieved for detailed analysis, employing bibliometric and network analyses with VOSviewer and Biblioshiny software to uncover key contributors, including organizations, authors, and journals, along with their collaborative interactions and significant keyword co-occurrences. Results: 262 HCPs in pediatric fracture research were identified and indexed in Scopus from 1929 to 2024 (95 years), accumulating a cumulative citation count of 42,675 and an average of 162.9 citations per publication. This body of work involved 931 authors from 160 organizations across 31 countries, with external funding at 9.16% and international collaboration at 7.25%. The United States of America was the leading contributor with 145 publications (55.34%), followed by the United Kingdom (11.83%) and Canada (11.45%). The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia emerged as the most productive organization, while the Conclusion: This study elucidates research trends and influential contributions in pediatric fracture research, offering valuable insights into past, present, and future research priorities in this domain.
