Brazilian manuscripts published in the Dysphagia journal

Abstract

Objective: to survey the Brazilian participation in original and review articles published in the Dysphagia journal. Methods: original and review articles in volumes 1 to 35, quantifying all those developed in Brazil, the diseases researched, the places where the investigations were conducted, and the number of citations they received, were analyzed. The categorical variables are presented in relative and absolute frequencies. Literature Review: a total of 35 Brazilian manuscripts were published. The most researched disease was Parkinson’s, followed by Chagas disease, stroke, and the physiology of swallowing. The highest number of publications was carried out at the Universidade de São Paulo, campus at Ribeirão Preto, SP, and the Universidade Federal de São Paulo, capital city. Between 2001 and 2010, 14 manuscripts were published (3.7% of the journal), and between 2011 and 2020, 20 were published (2.9% of the journal). By 2019, the manuscripts had received 481 citations - 17 citations per article between 1998 and 2009, and 14, between 2010 and 2019. Conclusion: Brazilian manuscripts are regularly published in the Dysphagia journal and have a scientific impact. However, there has not been a progressive increase in the number of published articles.

Há na literatura sobre disfagia um número significativo de pequisas publicadas por brasileiros 7,8 , mas o seu impacto, em termos de citações destas pesquisas, ainda não foi devidamente estudado.…”

Citations of Brazilian manuscripts published in the journal Dysphagia from 2001 to 2020

“…Two indicators, possibly not the only ones, portray this importance: 1) the number of published papers on dysphagia and 2) the frequency with which these papers are cited in the specialized literature. There is a meaningful amount of research published by Brazilians in the literature on dysphagia 7,8 , although its impact in terms of citations has not been properly studied yet.…”
