We present the first database-wide study on citation contexts of retracted papers, which covers 7,813 papers indexed in PubMed, 169,434 citations collected from iCite, and 48,134 identified XML version PubMed Central Open Access Subset. Compared with previous studies that focused comparing counts using two time frames (i.e., preretraction postretraction), our analyses show longitudinal trends to past 60 years (1960-2020). Our temporal continued be cited, but old stopped being cited as...
Retraction is a mechanism for alerting readers to unreliable material and other problems in the published scientific scholarly record. Retracted publications generally remain visible searchable, but intention of retraction mark them as "removed" from citable record scholarship. However, practice, some retracted articles continue be treated by researchers public valid content they are often unaware retraction. Research over past decade has identified number factors contributing unintentional...
OpCitance contains all the sentences from 2 million PubMed Central open-access (PMCOA) articles, with 137 inline citations annotated (i.e., "citation contexts"). Parsing out references and citation contexts PMCOA XML files was non-trivial due to diversity of referencing style. Only 0.5% remain unidentified technical or human issues, e.g., unmentioned by authors in text improper nesting, which is more common among older articles (pre-2000). IDs (PMIDs) linked compared harvested using NCBI...
ABSTRACT Scientific retractions occur for a multitude of reasons. A growing body research has studied the phenomenon retraction through systematic analyses characteristics retracted articles and their associated citations. In our study, we focus on that cite articles, changes in citation dynamics pre‐ post‐retraction. We leverage descriptive statistics ego‐network methods to examine 4,871 citations before after retraction. Our data was obtained from PubMed, Scopus, Retraction Watch citing...
ABSTRACT Retraction removes seriously flawed papers from the scientific literature. However, even retracted for fraud continue to be cited and used as valid after their retraction. Retracted are inadequately identified on publisher pages in scholarly databases, scholars' personal libraries frequently contain papers. To address this, we developing a tool called ReTracker ( https://github.com/nikolausn/ReTrackers ) that automatically checks user's Zotero library articles, adds retraction...
ABSTRACT Citations between papers and patents reflect transfer of knowledge science technology. Patents commonly cite but rarely patents. Here, we identified 6,033 paper‐to‐patent citations in a collection 1.5 million PubMed Central open access articles. These citing cited contained 132,536 paper‐to‐paper, 200,339 patent‐to‐patent, 36,342 patent‐to‐paper citations. four citation datasets were used to model the temporal patterns within across papers. We found that are generally much older...
Abstract Systematic reviews answer specific questions based on primary literature. However, systematic the same topic frequently disagree, yet there are no approaches for understanding why at a glance. Our goal is to provide visual summary that could be useful researchers, policy makers, and health care professionals in controversies persist expert literature over time. We present case study of single controversy public health, around question: “Is reducing dietary salt beneficial population...
ABSTRACT The availability of large scholarly full‐text datasets with in‐text citations annotated opens the opportunity to investigate how articles have been cited in scientific literature at scale. However, duplicate documents may exist a dataset, and these duplicates impact downstream analysis such as calculating citation counts. Document conflation is task identifying that are nearly identical each other. This study evaluates document Semantic Scholar Open Research Corpus (S2ORC), dataset...
Abstract Citations between papers and patents indicate knowledge transfer science technology. This study discusses the function of paper‐to‐patent citations through citation contexts. 7,223 articles having at least one are identified from a collection 2.4 million PubMed Central open access articles. Within 429,698 references cited by articles, 11,165 (2.6%) citations, while 418,533 (97.4%) paper‐to‐paper citations. In comparison to were more concentrated beginning Higher proportions in...
