“…Comparatively, a bibliometric analysis focused on overhead throwing athletes found that the top-cited article had 471 citations, 111 an analysis on sports and medicine in football found that the top-cited article had 869 citations, 31 and an analysis on the broader field of sports and exercise medicine found that the top-cited article had 7228 citations. 90 As with other citation analyses related to sports medicine, the majority of our top-cited articles were published within the past 2 decades, reflecting rapid growth in research within the field. 31,90,121 In our study, 96 of the top 100 articles were published within the United States.…”

Background: Bibliometric citation analyses have been widely used in medicine to help researchers gain foundational knowledge about a topic and identify subtopics of popular interest for further investigations. There is a lack of similar research in collegiate athletics. Purpose: To identify the 100 most-cited research publications related to collegiate athletics. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: The Clarivate Analytics Web of Knowledge database was used to generate a list of articles relating to collegiate athletics on January 24, 2022. Articles were filtered by the total number of citations, and the 100 most-cited articles were selected. For each article, we identified and analyzed the following: author name, publication year, country of origin, journal name, article type, main research topic area, competitive level, sex of study population, and level of evidence. Results: Of the top 100 most-cited articles, 63 were related to medicine. In total, 96% of articles were published in the United States, and 80% were published in the year 2000 or later. Of the top 100 articles, 85 were observational; only 5 were experimental. The sport most represented was soccer, followed by football, baseball, and basketball. Of the top 100 articles, 21 were published in a single journal, the American Journal of Sports Medicine. Ten authors published ≥5 of the top 100 most-cited studies. Conclusion: The majority of top 100 articles were published in the United States after 1999 and primarily focused on medicine-related topics. Soccer was studied by more articles than football, baseball, and basketball. An author’s prestige may have influenced the likelihood of citation. The top 100 most-cited studies provide researchers, medical students, residents, and fellows with a foundational list of the most important and influential academic contributions to the literature on collegiate athletics.

“…This type of study could offer readers the general aspects of research topic on distribution by country, institution, author, and journal. Bibliometric methods have been used in many research fields, including stroke (Feng et al, 2013) and exercise (Fares et al, 2017;Khatra et al, 2021). From the perspective of research progress, the number of clinical trials and papers on stroke rehabilitation has increased in the past years (Feng et al, 2013).…”

ObjectiveTo make a bibliometric analysis of global trends in research into exercise interventions for stroke between 2001 and 2021.MethodThis study did the systematic literature from 2001 to 2021 in Web of Science Core Collection. CiteSpace software was used to analyze the relationship of publications with countries, journals, authors, references, and keywords.ResultsA total of 3,484 publications were obtained in the bibliometric analysis. The number of publications increased gradually over the period. The United States have the most number of publications. The journal stroke had the most citations per paper (106.95) and the highest impact factor (IF 2020, 7.194). The most high frequency keywords are “stroke,” “rehabilitation,” and “recovery,” the top of burst key words are “health,” “speed,” and “aerobic exercise”.ConclusionThese findings provide the trends of exercise for stroke s and provided the potential research frontiers in the past 20 years. It will be a useful basis for further research into focus issues, cooperators, development trends.

Currently, librarians, researchers, and policy maker still need updated information regarding the profile of research trends, especially in sports. This research aims specifically to explore sports research trends. Publication (Scopus) at the International Level is dominated by scientific journal articles, while the Indonesian level is dominated by Conference Papers (Proceedings). The opportunity for publication in Scopus indexed scientific journals is still wide open. The research implications: (1) contribute ideas to librarians, researchers, and policy maker in the world to be able to develop sports and be able to produce Scopus documents (reputable journals) to the fullest; (2) providing ideas for librarians, researchers, and policy maker regarding sports research trends; and (3) providing information on research trend profiles from Scopus documents related to international and Indonesian sports to librarians, researchers, and policy maker.
