Scientific impact: Check Science Article Rank by article index calculation for the Life Science and Biology, Health and Medical, Nutrition and BioTechnology research

[bioinfosm]

I think the best way to actually use these rankings, is to display the papers used for a particular name entered.

To add more, check box next to each of those articles can be provided with select-all / clear options, so the user may select all and clear out a few noisy ones, or do their own background research to select the few appropriate ones in a list of all false positives.

Eg, enter Dong Q, and the score is 264.7

It will be a useful tool, once I am sure it is scoring the person I intend to check!

bioinfosm,
Thank you for your suggestion.
You can be sure for 110% that Article Rank is scoring the person what you are intend to check as soon as person’s affiliation(s) entered.
Please, see some examples for Dong Q below:

Qingdao Municipal Hospital [ad] Dong Q
scored as 0.8

Tongji University [ad] Dong Q
scored as 0.9

University of Michigan Health System [ad] Dong Q
scored as 1.0

Central Clinical School [ad] Dong Q
scored as 4.55

University of California [ad] Dong Q
scored as 6.55

Central Clinical School [ad] Dong Q OR University of California [ad] Dong Q
scored as 11.1

Dear GXU,

1.
The BioMedTalk.com Articles Rank (AR) is the way to identify the scientific impact for a person as an author of scientific articles published in the peer-reviewed professional journals. BioMedTalk.com Articles Rank is not scoring the Laboratory or any other unit of researchers.

2.
BioMedTalk.com Articles Rank for Xu G at Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics
can be found by entering into the form
Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics [ad] Xu G
If Prof. Xu G has been working at any other organization before you can enter multiple affiliation. Please, see first post of this thread for details.

[GXU]

Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics [ad] Xu Guowang

[Oleks]

BioMedTalk.com Articles Rank for Xu G at Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics
Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics [ad] Xu G
for today is 85.95

I will add this Articles Rank to the first post of this thread.

[Li Xiang]

I'm very interested in Articles Rank (AR) , can I ask some questions?
When I compare the AR for the scientists, I wonder what is the full mark of the AR? What is the AR of the top 1 scientist on a certain research?
Can I compare scientists on different research fields?

[Oleks]

Li Xiang,
> Can I compare scientists on different research fields?

Definitely you can compare the Articles Rank (AR) for different scientists who’s articles published on Life Science and Biology, Health and Medical, Nutrition and BioTechnology research.

> What is the AR of the top 1 scientist on a certain research?

Forum Members will appreciate if you will score authorities whom you know from different research fields.
Please, post in this thread authorities name, research fields and Articles Rank (AR) returned.

I found this answer to the question of HOW THE RANK CALCULATION IS CARRIED OUT:

"The article rank calculation is based on quantity, quality of the scientific articles published by researchers in peer-reviewed professional journals by certain Author and something else which is our know-how."

Could you not give us more details? Otherwise, it is very difficult to evaluate the actual value and reliability of this Article Rank Index. I have been interested in the subject for many years and I am also the author of a related scientometric paper (Valentinuzzi ME, Laciar E, Atrio J (2007) Two new discipline-independent indices to quantify individual’s scientific research output. Journal Physics: Conference Series 90, 012018 doi:10.1088/1742-6596/90/1/012018).

Some results are really surprising and even conflicting with previous data.

Dear Max E. Valentinuzzi,
Thank you for your post. Your article is very interested. So, I am providing a link to the PDF version of the article
Valentinuzzi ME, Laciar E, Atrio J (2007) Two new discipline-independent indices to quantify individual’s scientific research output. Journal Physics: Conference Series 90, 012018 doi:10.1088/1742-6596/90/1/012018.

Those who are interested are welcome to download this article.
Please, be sure to open Adobe reader first and after this click on link provided to download the article. At least this order is working fine from my side.

As I can see from your article number of citations has been used in your index. We are trying to avoid number of citations because many Authors are self-citating they articles. So, self citation is negatively effecting index calculating based on number of citations.

The calculation for Authors with the highest, intermediate and the lowest H index provided in your article table 2, BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES is returning the next BMT (BioMedTalk.com) articles rank:

Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E
H 11.63
S/A 64.82
BMT (BioMedTalk.com) 134.15

Leiden University [ad] Baan J
H 5,20
S/A 443,51
BMT (BioMedTalk.com) 26.3

Spain [ad] Aguera LG
H 2.43
S/A 0.56
BMT (BioMedTalk.com) 0.2

As you can see BMT (BioMedTalk.com) articles rank is in line with H index. The higher H index is returning the higher BMT (BioMedTalk.com) articles rank. So, results are not surprising and not conflicting with previous data.

Also, please, pay attention that H index is bringing the values closer together. H index is 11.63 for the highest Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E and 2.43 for the lowest Spain [ad] Aguera LG. It is only 4.79 times (11.63 / 2.43 = 4.79) or 9.2 points (11.63 - 2.43 = 9.2) threshold.
BMT (BioMedTalk.com) index is 134.15 for the highest Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E and 0.2 for the lowest Spain [ad] Aguera LG. It is 670.75 times (134.15 / 0.2 = 670.75) or 133.95 points (134.15 - 0.2 = 133.95) threshold.
So, by having wider threshold BMT (BioMedTalk.com) index is more sensitive compare to H index.

Dear Sir (BMT),

I sure thank you and appreciate very much your kind and prompt reply along with the special computations you have made. My comments are honest and do not intend to question the procedure, they only requested more procedural details to better assess the index from a pure scientific viewpoint. Thank you also for comparing our results with yours.
Regarding the self-citations, yes, definitely, they should not be used for they distort the results. This is a well-known fact.
Would you be able to asses the validity of our claim regarding the discipline-independent characterist of the indices we propose? After its publication, I personally started to have some doubts about it.
How would you compare the Article Rank Index with our modified H? Would such a thing be possible?
What do you think of the S/A ratio?

Just for your information (not bragging), I have been for over 50 years in science and technology, especially in biomedical engineering. I will soon be 78, retired but still active in academic life, doing consultation. Right now I am finishing a book on cardiac fibrillation-defibrillation to be published by World Scientific Publishers, in Singapore.

It was nice and enlightening to get in touch with you and hope that we keep with this exchange.

Best regards,

Max Val

1) I often publish under my first initial as well as my first two initials. The advantage is that when I use "J Smith" instead of "JA Smith" (not real names), my score goes way up. How does one eliminate the J Smith's that are not mine?

2) Is there a way to have your score calculated by year, so you can see your progress?

Texas Pathologist,
If you publish under your first initial as well as you first two initials, so try to use affiliation as following:
university of cincinnati [ad] Smith J OR university of Cincinnati [ad] Smith JA

(not real affiliation and names),

Hope this helps.

This is a perfect idea. We will try to improve this.

[Texas Pathologist]

When I add up all the sites I have been, I do not get my total number. Why is this?

[Oleks]

It is also a way to have Articles Rank calculated by year(s) using date of publication [dp] to see the progress. See example as following:

2006[dp]:2010[dp] Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E
an article index of 53.65

2001[dp]:2005[dp] Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E
an article index of 31.50

1996[dp]:2000[dp] Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E
an article index of 19.1

1991[dp]:1995[dp] Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E
an article index of 12.19

1986[dp]:1990[dp] Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E
an article index of 18.0

1981[dp]:1985[dp] Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E
an article index of 0.6

1976[dp]:1980[dp] Harvard Medical School [ad] Braunwald E
an article index of 0

P.S.
The note about Articles Rank calculation by year(s) has been added to the first post of this thread.

[Texas Pathologist]

Sectioning into dates is wonderful.

Can one, on a larger space than current obviously, add together a series of articles by pubmed id? I have worked with people in Greece, Italy, Nigeria, The Netherlands, and China to do statistics for them, wherein the listed institution is in those countries.

I think this site is magnificent.

Texas Pathologist,
We have some sollution for this. Use name of one Author accompanied by the name of another author. The code will look like this:

AffiliationofAuthor1 [ad] FamilynameofAuthor1 in OR FamilyNameofAuthor1 in AND FamilyNameofAuthor2 in OR FamilynameofAuthor1 in AND FamilyNameofAuthor3 in

In your case
AffiliationofAuthor1 [ad] FamilynameofAuthor1 in
will be your affiliation and your name and initials

FamilyNameofAuthor2 in
will be the name and initials of your colleague from China

FamilyNameofAuthor3 in
will be the name and initials of your colleague from Italy

in – is initials of each author.

This way will work better than PubMed id, if you remember all names and initials for your co-authors from other countries.
I am sure you are remember all of them.
Hope this is helps.
