Impact of BMC Medicine articles in the news and social media

今天,作为我们10周年纪念日的一部分,我们看一下更现代的衡量标准文章级别指标BMC医学,,,,by looking at our top 10 articles as ranked byAltmetric.com。Altmetric quantifies the media response of an article over a variety of online platforms including news items, blogs, Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Pinterest, and Reddit among others, to give a measure of the interest the article has received. This response is indicated via an高度“甜甜圈”which BioMed Central added to all published articles in May 2012. More information can be read in a previous博客

在出版时,我们定期发布有关我们的文章的推文@BMCMedicineTwitter account and also encourage authors to share articles via their own social media profiles. We work closely with our按下中心在order to disseminate articles we feel are of broad public interest, and often write博客on our articles where appropriate. As a journal, we find Altmetric scores very interesting, and follow them closely for each new article we publish. As a general medical journal, much of our content is of interest to patient groups, as well as researchers and medical practitioners, and so by following Altmetric data it is useful for us to see who is actively discussing our articles. In aTwitter聊天we held last year, we found that generally, healthcare providers deem social media as an important tool for patients allowing them to feel more educated about a specific condition or treatment.

请参阅下面具有最高高度分数的前10篇文章列表。单击任何文章旁边的甜甜圈,以查看文章的社会影响。一个更丰富多彩的甜甜圈表明,在较高数量的不同媒体上提到了这篇文章。必须注意的是,高度分数不一定表明研究的质量,而是它是社会兴趣的指标,应用作针对其他措施的补充,例如我们提到的文章访问和引用博客本周早些时候。毫不奇怪,我们的前十名列表包括过去两年中发表的研究。Altmetric确实包括在此时间之前发表的研究,但是2011年7月之前发表的文章得分较小,不太可能准确。

对于Twitter上提到的每篇文章,Altmetric提供了一张地图,并分解了每个推文的地理位置。例如,下面我们列表中的第四高文章,一篇有关Open access versus subscription journals,,,,generated substantial interest across the globe as indicated in the Altmetic diagram below. This allows authors to instantly see where in the world their article is being discussed, which until the introduction of measures such as Altmetric, was difficult to ascertain.

作为开放访问期刊,我们发现社交媒体是将文章传播给研究人员,学者和公众的非常有用的工具,因为任何人都可以直接从推文中的链接中直接打开我们的文章。除了提供整体分数外,Almetric还提供有关“高音扬声器人口统计”的信息。在下面的列表中获取我们的第三高分文章;酒精摄入,葡萄酒消费和抑郁症的发展。This study found that a moderate amount of wine was associated with a reduced risk of depression – understandably this research gained a lot of attention via social media. A quick glance at the ‘tweeter demographics’ indicates that 77% of the tweeters were members of the public, with 11% of tweeters being practitioners (doctors, other healthcare professionals), 6% being Science communicators (journalists, bloggers, editors) and 4% being scientists. This is a prime example of how social media can be used to distribute research, both within and outside of academia. This information doesn’t tell us which of the tweeters actually go on to read the full research article, but it does provide us with useful information on general interest levels. Altmetric also keeps track of how many users include a given article on tools such asMendeleyandCiteulike,由于研究人员最有可能使用这些,因此这使我们更直接地表明了学术兴趣。

因为这种类型的文章水平指标是一个relatively new measure of research impact, it remains to be seen how much of a useful tool they actually are, but it is certainly something that we atBMC医学将继续密切关注。
