Turkey's International Medical Publications 1994 and the Recent Performance in the Medical Fields and Institutions

Altan ONAT1

Medical publications originating from Turkey in 1994 and included in the Science Citation Index (SCI) database were evaluated quantitatively. Of all 1789 Turkish scientific publications listed in the CD-ROM SCI compact disk, 706 were identified as medical which represented a rise by 14% over the preceding year. Turkey's share in medical publitacations in the world rose to 2.6 per mille. When notes, letters to the editor and meeting abstracts were excluded, 370 articles remained, references to which are appended. Appraisal of the individual fields during the past 4 years revealed that urology, gynecology, ophthalmology and otorhinolaryngology fared distincly above average. Publications in cardiovascular medicine, with 25 articles in 1994 also ranked better than the general field. Among the medical institutions, Hacettepe University led ahead of Ankara and İstanbul U. medical faculties which were followed by the medical faculties of Gazi and Marmara Universities.
