    A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications on Emergency Medicine in Turkiye
    (Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2024-07) Guzelce, Mustafa Can; Orhan, Ertug; Ozgur, Sefer
    OBJECTIVES: Publications and literature related to emergency medicine (EM) have been consistently increasing. There are 4048 studies in total in the EM journals published until the present day in Turkiye in the Web of Science (WoS) database. Our aim is to define the bibliometric features of scientific studies published in EM journals in Turkiye, to gain insights into the trends of the literature. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the bibliometric data of scientific studies published in EM journals in Turkiye until today on the WoS database related to the EM field. The bibliometrix package of R statistical software was used in the bibliometric analyses in the study. RESULTS: A total of 4048 scientific studies from Turkiye indexed on the WoS database from 10,263 authors in four different journals were analyzed. Among these, 3681 (90.9%) were articles, 188 (4.7%) were reviews, 97 (2.4%) were editorial material, 60 (1.5%) were letters, and 5 (0.1%) were corrections. Average number of citations per study was 3.6, with the most cited study having 2016 citations. The most frequent title's words were emergency, patient, and acute. CONCLUSION: This study shows that there is an increasing trend in the number of EM publications and citations in Turkiye with the first most cited study having 2016 citations, and the top contributing countries were Turkiye, Iran, and India. The results of this study may be useful in understanding the historical and prospective development of EM, including the identification of general information about its publications, differentiation of the top-cited ones, and presentation of a bibliometric analysis of scientific activity to date.

    Comparison of Bpap S/T and Average Volume-Assured Pressure Support Modes for Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure in the Emergency Department: a Randomized Controlled Trial
    (Galenos Publ House, 2021-09-22) Gören, Nurfer Zehra; Sanci, Emre; Coskun, Feride Fulya Ercan; Gursoylu, Duygu; Bayram, Basak
    Background: There is limited research into the utility of average volume-assured pressure support (AVAPS), a volume-assured pressure-controlled mode, especially in patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure. Aims: This study aimed at a randomized comparison of AVAPS and bilevel positive airway pressure spontaneous/timed (BPAP S/T) modes in non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) application with hypercapnic respiratory failure patients in the emergency department (ED). Study Design: Randomized controlled study. Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled study, 80 patients admitted to ED with hypercapnic respiratory failure requiring NIMV were randomly assigned to AVAPS or S/T groups using the sealed envelope method (33 patients in the S/T group, 47 patients in the AVAPS group). Data of arterial blood gas (ABG), vital parameters, Glasgow Coma Score (GCS), additional treatment needs, and clinical outcomes were evaluated, and the treatment success rates of both groups were compared. Results: A total of 80 patients, 33 in the S/T and 47 in the AVAPS group, were analyzed in the study. The pH values improved in the AVAPS group compared to the baseline (0.07 [0.04-0.10] vs 0.03 [0.00-0.11]). PaCO2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide) excretion was faster in the AVAPS group than in the S/T group in the first hour (10.20 mmHg [6.20-19.20] vs. 4.75 ([-] 0.83-16.88)). The comparison of blood gas measurements showed no significant differences between the groups regarding the changes in PaCO2 and pH values over time (P=.141 and P=.271, respectively). During the ED follow-up, 3 (6.4%) patients in the AVAPS group and 5 (15.2%) patients in the S/T group needed intubation [Relative risk: 0.42 (95% CI: 0.11 to 1.64), P=.21]. Conclusion: In this study, improvements in blood gas parameters in the AVAPS group were faster compared to the S/T group; however, we did not find any significant difference between the groups in terms of clinical parameters. The AVAPS mode is as effective and safe as BPAP S/T in treating patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure in the ED.
