Turkish Retinoblastoma Research: A Bibliometric Analysis (1966-2024).
Article in Turkish journal of ophthalmology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objectives: To conduct the first bibliometric analysis of retinoblastoma research in Türkiye and identify leading institutions, authors, collaboration patterns, and potential growth areas. Materials and Methods: We conducted a search on international databases (Web of Science [WoS] and Scopus), a national database (TR Dizin), and gray literature sources (thesis/Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye project reports). Data were cleaned and analyzed using bibliometric tools, including Open Refine and VOSviewer. Bibliometric indicators such as number of publications, journals, h-index, collaboration patterns, and co-occurrence of keywords were examined. Results: A search of WoS and Scopus entries published between 1966 and 2024 yielded 122 relevant publications, with articles (n=78, 63.9%) being the most common document type. More than two-thirds of the publications were from 4 institutions: İstanbul University (n=48, 23.8%), Hacettepe University (n=34, 16.8%), Ankara University (n=33, 16.3%), and İstanbul University-Cerrahpaşa (n=22, 10.9%). The total number of citations was 1,148, with an average of 10.16 per publication and an h-index of 16. Excluding 8 internationally collaborated articles, the citations and h-index decreased to 661 and 14, respectively. Conclusion: This study represents the first bibliometric analysis of retinoblastoma research conducted in Türkiye. Our findings underscore the concentration of research in a few institutions, the importance of international collaborations, and the potential for growth in particular areas. Addressing these areas strategically can empower Turkish researchers to enhance their contributions to the field and improve patient care.
