Clinical paper searching is a major task for clinical researchers to collect authoritative and up-to-date evidences to support their research works and clinical practices. Currently, this task needs huge amount of labor work. Researchers usually spend a lot of time searching on the online repository and iterating many times to get the final paper list. Systematic review is a special case, in which the paper searching process is a critical step. To address this challenge, this paper introduces a method to streamline the iterative paper searching process. It automatically selects the most probably matched papers, and then generates new search strategy. All the intermediate results are visualized based on the paper citation graph. It assembles technologies such as Page Rank and Topic-based clustering to accelerate the paper searching tasks. The precision, recall, and execution time of the proposed method are then evaluated by comparing with published systematic reviews [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aimed to reveal general landscape of research on teacher resilience, employing descriptive and bibliometric analyses. Descriptive analyses were performed utilizing Web of Science's internal system, while bibliometric analyses were executed through the VOSviewer program. Web of Science Core Collection was used as a data source. Citation analyses of publications, authors, and journals, as well as co-authorship, co-citation, and common word analyses were conducted. The research reveals a timeline of publications, indicating a notable surge in 2006, and a substantial increase in 2021. The countries with the highest number of publications on teacher resilience, in descending order, are the United States of America (USA), Australia, the United Kingdom (UK), and the People's Republic of China (PRC), according to the research findings.

The research methods used by information systems scholars have changed in the course of thirty years. For example, the availability of big datasets and processing power have opened new avenues of computational research. Yet few studies have quantified the changes, and we know little about their impact on and implications for the discipline. In this paper, we present a two-stage bibliometric study. We first develop search terms that are associated with research methods in IS. We then use those in 62 searches in eight leading IS journals, to chart the relative popularity of methods over time. We identify key methodological trends, including a steady rise of longitudinal research. We also find evidence of a diversification of methods, with more methods growing than declining in relative occurrence, and identify the possible implications of this changing portfolio that deserve further study.

Digital transformation is the rapidly expanding research field dealing with the increased impact of digital technologies on both business and society. Due to the large number of papers and the semantic ambiguity surrounding the terminology, covering such a broad topic is difficult. To help researchers gain a better understanding of the knowledge structure of the research field, we conduct a scoping review using scientometrics. We searched for publications dealing with digital transformation on both Scopus and Web of Science. We downloaded their bibliometric data and thoroughly merged and cleaned it using lemmatization and stemmatization. This dataset was analyzed using VOSviewer to create co-author networks and co-word occurrence graphs of the titles, abstracts, and keywords. We also visualized the growth of the research field and retrieved the top conferences and journals based on the number of papers and the number of citations. K-means clustering was performed on the abstracts and keywords to find similar research focuses. These findings highlight the broad scope of the research field, the ambiguity of the terminology, the lack of collaboration, and the absence of research into the impact of digital transformation on society. Moving forward, more research needs to be done to establish the boundaries of digital transformation and to investigate the importance of society in this phenomenon. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper the methods of bibliometric analysis were used to investigate the global entropy research trend based on the SCI and SSCI database, which can be employed to study the global research trend. The paper number, subjects, journals, countries, institutes, authors, citations and funding agencies were analyzed respectively on each published papers. As a concept emerged firstly from science, entropy was then extended rapidly to social science as a typical example of such concept extensions. The bibliometric analysis results make out that great academic successes were made on global entropy research and a great success were obtained from science to social science research. Entropy related researches were funded by many funding agencies and countries so that some high quality productivities were published. It is the excellent scientists as well as sufficient foundations that brought the extension on entropy from science to social science in the last two decades. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

This paper explores how to bridge the field of IS on sustainability with Sustainability Transitions Research (STR). Using a bibliometric analysis of 5 IS conference proceedings, it maps possibilities for such bridging, moving beyond the current approaches of GreenIT. Semantic content analysis of IS abstracts and keywords indicates themes characterizing GreenIT, focusing mostly on sustainability practice on the organizational level. In contrast, sustainability research (systems-level) is still uncharted territory for the IS community. Social network analysis of the authors and journals shows that collaboration and co-citation "within" the IS community are as low as the connection "without". We propose that more diffusion of IS theory and methods through Design Science may enrich current STR to be truly data-driven and theory-guided. First, the mapping suggests that IS theorizing can augment STR to be more generalizable for the digital era. Second, the thematic patterns suggest that Design Science methods and artifacts can augment the design of large-size STR studies bringing a more robust and data-driven theory-guided analysis of system innovation and transitions actor networks.

The outbreak of the coronavirus disease first occurred in December of 2019 in Wuhan Hubei province, China. The new acute infectious disease later spread across the world and became a global pandemic. This study seeks to assess the numerous studies published on this topic, particularly artificial intelligence, as one of the top techniques used to combat it. Therefore, a bibliometric analysis of the scientific publications on artificial intelligence and COVID-19 may point to future research directions. This paper conducted a bibliometric analysis of Covid-19 and Artificial intelligence research using the Scopus database, then analyzed using VOSviewer to derive quantitative publication metrics and display coexisting key term networks obtained between 2019 and 2021. The bibliometric analysis showed that in the co-occurrence of all keywords in COVID-19 and artificial intelligence publications, the words "pandemic" and "covid-19" are the most occurring keywords. As well as an analysis of the co-authorship showed that "the United States" and "India" have the most publications. A tree-map of the distribution of research in Covid-19 and artificial intelligence between different fields revealed that the field where most research is done in medicine (21%), Computer Science (18%), and Engineering (11%). In conclusion, the number of global publications on COVID-19 is expected to rise steeply according to existing growth patterns. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Research papers from all over the world are published in thousands of science journals every year. The quality of these papers clearly has to be evaluated, not only to determine their accuracy and contribution to fields of research, but also to help make informed decisions about rewarding scientists with funding and appointments to research positions. The citation-based metric or impact analysis is meant to rank scientific journals, but there have been numerous criticisms over the years of its use as a measure of the quality of individual research papers. A number of Higher education institutions are using bibliometrics based on journal impact factors to rank universities and research institutions which appear to create pressure among social sciences and humanities researchers. The researchers argue that the prevailing system of impact factor is deeply flawed. The transformation of the academic journal and modelling the creation of new knowledge systems are indeed apt and timely. This paper proposes type of renewal that Higher Education and academic knowledge systems require in order to improve their quality, effectiveness and value as an integral part of the research and knowledge building infrastructure of a peculiarly knowledge society.

Supply chain management has evolved from local and regional purchasing and supply activities prior to the industrial revolution, to the current form of technology-led, data-driven, collaborative, and global supply network. Adoption of contracts among the channel members enables optimization, coordination, and decision-making. Through literature reviews based on sourcing, production, logistics, and others areas within supply chain are rich in their respective areas, systematic analyses of closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) are lacking. We examine studies on CLSC to discover the knowledge and direction of researches through systematic bibliometric analysis. We adopt citation, co-citation, and co-occurrence of closed-loop supply chain research articles from 2001 to 2021 using data obtained from the SCOPUS database to identify and validate the themes and sub-themes in this research area.

Carbon emission is a huge challenge for the world to combat climate change and achieve the Paris Agreement targets. To address this challenge, it is important to retrofit existing buildings towards net zero carbon (NZC). Many studies have focused on different aspects of building retrofitting towards NZC. However, a study that systematically examines the knowledge domain of building retrofitting towards NZC is lacking. This study aims to analyze the existing research domain of NZC retrofitting through a bibliometric analysis and provide pathways for future research. Based upon 517 relevant articles identified from Scopus, bibliometric analysis was conducted using the VOSviewer and Gephi software tools. Findings revealed the collaboration networks between authors, countries, organizations, and keywords in this research domain. R.F. De Masi and G.P. Vanoli are the two authors with the highest link strength, while the University of Naples Federico II has the highest number of NZC retrofitting publications. In addition, Italy is the country with the highest number of publications, but China is the most productive country when it comes to both publications and citations combined. "Energy efficiency", "energy saving", "nearly zero energy building", "net zero energy", and "renewable energy" are the most prioritized research areas. Based on identified gaps, future research directions are proposed to include (1) integration of modern technology to simulate NZC retrofitting; (2) optimization of sustainable measures to achieve NZC buildings; and (3)quantification of drivers and benefits of NZC retrofitting. The findings of this study would be useful to researchers, policymakers, and practitioners who are interested in NZC retrofitting. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Digital health information systems are quickly replacing paper systems worldwide. This study examined scholarly work reflecting how ethical considerations for health information systems (HISs) have evolved over time, with particular interest in the contributions from low- and middle-income country (LMIC) institutions. We systematically searched four research databases for terms related to HISs, ethics, and LMICs; and identified 601 relevant articles published from 1975 through 2019. The included publications were produced by 1,000 authors from more than 700 institutions. However, only 30 publications were co-authored by researchers from both an LMIC and a high-income country (HIC). Most publications pertained to data security. There is an acute need to address a wider array of HIS ethics topics, including those that may be unique to LMIC resource constraints. We recommend more collaborations between LMIC and HIC institutions to address the full range of HIS ethical concerns in LMICs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

How the evaluation of research is conducted has significant effects on the field in terms of what work is done, how it is done and who is rewarded. This paper expands on Cuellar, et al (2016) by providing an extended description and critique of the existing method and an overview of its proposed replacement, the Scholarly Capital Model. It shows that the existing method: counting papers in ranked journals uses an under-theorized base, systematically distorted data and has deleterious effects on the field. The paper then overviews the Scholarly Capital Model and shows how it can be used to evaluate research regardless of type of institution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Carbon-based emissions from greenhouse gases (GHGs) from transportation make a harmful impact on climate change and human health. The traditional combustion of vehicles makes severe consequences on the environment. Electric vehicles are regarded as a key technology to decarbonize the road transport sector for environmental protection and sustainability because the EVs reduce the carbon footprint, dependence on fossil fuels, and noise levels and increase the efficiency of conversion. The research about EVs has significantly increased since 2018 because EVs are used in practical transportation. This paper provides essential information on emerging trends and the Future of research involving EVs. The method used in this paper is to use five stages of screening and the application of VOS viewer for constructing and visualizing bibliometric networks. Based on the results obtained, the most frequently used keywords in research related to electric vehicles are electric vehicles, electric vehicle batteries, and electronic waste. Research on electric vehicle batteries will still be interesting research to discuss in the next few years. In addition, the topic of energy and environment is also a topic that must be raised because the final product from used batteries is still an obstacle for every country that has started to switch from ICE to EV.

The hotel industry experienced an immense transformation due to technological advancement and digitalization. Hotel websites evolved from merely online brochures to innovative tools with massive strategic significance. Nowadays, hotel websites are a substantial marketing tool for online branding and reaching potential guests. Furthermore, hotel websites are used as online booking mechanisms for hotels to enforce their direct booking channels. Yet, not all hotel websites generate success, depending on their quality. There are numerous interpretations of what website quality consists of, with the consensus that functionality and usability are the key factors that a quality website must contain. This research aims to conduct a preliminary bibliometric analysis to provide insights and systematize previous work on the topic. First, the Web of Knowledge database was searched with the selected keywords reflecting the research goal. Second, the most frequent words and phrases were extracted, and then finally, cluster analysis was conducted to extract research key topics. Interest findings emerged from the analysis beneficial both for academics and hotel managers. The bibliometric analysis pointed out topics' relevance and increased interest from the authors. The number of papers and citations has been rising in the last few years. The paper's origins are worldwide, confirming international interest in the topic. Moreover, the most frequent word analysis outlined the relationship between booking intention and website quality as a leading interest, confirming that website quality is an important factor for direct hotel booking. The most frequent phrase analysis revealed the researcher's interest in the website quality evaluation methodologies and the connection between website quality and perspectives such as the green economy. Finally, the cluster analysis emerged five key interest topics related to the website quality and hotel industry: booking intention, innovation, methodology, psychology, and special events.

Family firms have become the subject of research in the 1960s and 1970s, and the first published papers were dedicated to the topics of leadership and intergenerational succession in family firms. Family involvement, which is most often interpreted as involvement in ownership and management, represents the basis for differentiation of family firms from non)family firms, and this phenomenon implies certain specifics, which are expressed in business decision-making and business processes in family firms. In the last thirty years, development of a research area dedicated to family entrepreneurship as well as the characteristics of family enterprises has been noticeable. Internationalization of family firms is one of research topics whose importance has grown over time. Changes in global environment, such as increased global competitiveness, new modes of transportation, increased technological capability and new forms of communication highlight the significance of internationalization strategies of firms. The aim of this paper is to provide a literature review based on bibliometric analysis and systematic content analysis. In order to achieve that, 260 core contributions concerning family firm internationalization are identified. Analyzed articles were published between the years 1991 and 2021. Within those last 30 years of research, performance analysis depicts the temporal development of the number of articles related to family firm internationalization. Citation analysis reveals the most cited articles, the most important authors and the most productive journals. Author keyword co-occurrence analysis distinguishes five research themes concerning family firm internationalization, which are dedicated to socioemotional wealth, family ownership and family control, entry mode, entrepreneurial orientation, corporate governance and board of directors. Based on content analysis of the science mappings, the paper proposes a suggestion for future directions in research on family firm internationalization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
