Abstract

BACKGROUND: Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a genetic disorder in which the renal tubules become structurally abnormal, resulting in the development and growth of multiple cysts within the kidneys. Numerous studies on PKD have been published in the literature. However, no such articles used medical subject headings (MeSH terms) to predict the number of article citations. This study aimed to predict the number of article citations using 100 top-cited PKD articles (T100PKDs) and dissect the characteristics of influential authors and affiliated counties since 2010. METHODS: We searched the PubMed Central® (PMC) database and downloaded 100PKDs from 2010. Citation analysis was performed to compare the dominant countries and authors using social network analysis (SNA). MeSh terms were analyzed by referring to their citations in articles and used to predict the number of article citations using its correlation coefficients (CC) to examine the prediction effect. RESULTS: We observed that the top 3 countries and journals in 100PKDs were the US (65%), Netherlands (7%), France (5%), J Am Soc Nephrol (21%), Clin J Am Soc Nephrol (8%), and N Engl J Med (6%); the most cited article (PMID = 23121377 with 473 citations) was authored by Vicente Torres from the US in 2012; and the most influential MeSH terms were drug therapy (3087.2), genetics (2997.83), and therapeutic use (2760.7). MeSH terms were evident in the prediction power of the number of article citations (CC = 0.37; t = 3.92; P < .01, n = 100). CONCLUSIONS: A breakthrough was made by developing a method using MeSH terms to predict the number of article citations based on 100PKDs. MeSH terms are evident in predicting article citations that can be applied to future research, not limited to PKD, as we did in this study.
