1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundA thesis is a mandatory academic document that must be submitted to obtain a degree and promote research. However, the rate of publication is usually low, especially in indexed journals. Therefore, the role of the advisor is crucial in ensuring the quality of the thesis and its publication. MATERIALS AND

methodsA bibliometric study was completed that analyzed the scientific production of the highest 50 health science professors (in terms of graduate advises) in 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023 in Scopus. We searched RENATI to find the 50 professors that had the highest number of advised theses; to find documents published in Scopus, we generated and piloted a search algorithm for validation. The project collected two different types of variables, one from RENATI, and another from Scopus. The analysis of the data was completed using the SciVal tool, while graphs were produced with Bibliometrix 3.0 and VOSViewer. The data will be available for analysis until November 2024.

resultsOf the 50 teachers evaluated, 36 were published in Scopus, with 352 documents. There was a sustained increase in production until 2022, with authors from Mexico, Chile, and the United States being the most collaborative. Of the 10 primary journals, four were no longer in circulation, and the most common type of collaboration was national.

conclusionIt was found to be a low percentage of indexed scientific output by the 50 teachers with the highest volume of theses advices and of their documents published in low-quartile journals. The analysis also revealed a low scope of the themed publications with a lot of national collaboration. Thus, we highlight the importance of promoting networking and continuous research training to improve scientific visibility and productivity.
