Abstract
Introduction: Hematology plays a crucial role in investigating blood disorders and their treatment. Recognizing highly cited research can guide future studies in this field. This study aims to analyze the most highly cited articles in hematology from 2010 to 2020 to uncover key contributions and trends in this discipline.
Methods: This study searched the Web of Science Core Collection, focusing on the topic of hematology, to retrieve articles from 2010 to 2020. The top 100 highly cited hematological publications were then selected for additional examination, emphasizing original research papers and reviews. Finally, the data was transferred to R4.3.1 software and analyzed with Biblioshiny.
Results: The most cited articles in the field of hematology received citations in the range of 708 to 9886. Additionally, the “Blood” Journal was the primary contributor to producing highly-cited papers by publishing 41 articles. Döhner H. and Kantarjian HM. Contributed to four papers, claiming the largest share of individual authors of the highly-cited articles. Harvard University was the primary institution that contributed to producing highly cited hematology articles. Regarding the country of the corresponding author, the USA was the primary contributor to the published articles. Ultimately, these highly-cited hematology articles' most frequent keywords and essential topics were identified.
Conclusion: Research advances and trends can be seen in highly-cited hematology articles that can advance future research topics and directions in this field. It was also determined what specialized topics are significant among researchers worldwide.
