|June 7, 2023
Summary
Publication trends in prosthodontics show an increase in original research and systematic reviews from 2016-2020. Authors from private institutions and those with larger teams dominated publications, focusing on materials, technology, and implants.
Area of Science:
- Prosthodontics
- Dental Research
- Publication Analysis
Background:
- Analysis of publication trends in the Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society (JIPS) from 2011-2020.
- Comparison of scientific content and author characteristics between 2011-2015 and 2016-2020.
Approach:
- Quantitative analysis of manuscripts published in JIPS.
- Categorization of articles by author affiliation, article type, prosthetic division, and statistical methods.
Key Points:
- Higher publication rates observed from authors affiliated with private institutions.
- Increased number of publications with four or more authors in the 2016-2020 period.
- Predominance of original research and case reports, with a rise in systematic reviews.
- Higher frequency of in vitro studies and comparison of means in statistical analysis.
- Focus on materials and technology, followed by implants within the prosthetic division.
Conclusions:
- The study highlights the journal's progress, author demographics, research types, statistical approaches, and key research areas in national prosthodontics.
- Identifies research gaps and future directions for authors and the journal, aiding comparison with international trends and guiding prospective authors.

01:11Statistical Analysis: Overview
6.7K
When we take repeated measurements on the same or replicated samples, we will observe inconsistencies in the magnitude. These inconsistencies are called errors. To categorize and characterize these results and their errors, the researcher can use statistical analysis to determine the quality of the measurements and/or suitability of the methods.
One of the most commonly used statistical quantifiers is the mean, which is the ratio between the sum of the numerical values of all results and the...

38.6K
The chi-square test is a statistical hypothesis test. It is used to check whether there is a significant difference between an expected value and an observed value. In the context of genetics, it enables us to either accept or reject a hypothesis, based on how much the observed values deviate from the expected values.
The chi-square test was developed by Pearson in 1990.
The first step of performing a Chi-square analysis is to establish a null hypothesis, which assumes that there is no real...

01:12Quantitative Analysis
337
Quantitative analysis is a technique for measuring the amount of specific constituents in a sample. When the sample's composition is unknown, qualitative analysis is performed first to identify its components, which ensures that the correct substances are measured during the quantitative phase.
In quantitative analysis, two key measurements are made: the sample quantity and a property proportional to the amount of the analyte (the substance being analyzed). This forms the basis of the...

01:12Analysis of Population Pharmacokinetic Data

Analysis of population pharmacokinetic data involves studying the behavior of drugs within diverse populations to understand their pharmacokinetic parameters. Traditional pharmacokinetic methods typically involve collecting samples from a few individuals and estimating these parameters. While these methods are commonly used, they have limitations in capturing the variability in drug response among individuals or heterogeneous populations. Population pharmacokinetics is employed to address these...

01:12Statistical Methods to Analyze Parametric Data: ANOVA
454
Analysis of Variance, or ANOVA, is a powerful statistical technique used to analyze parametric data, primarily in research and experimental studies. It's designed to compare the means of two or more groups, assisting researchers in identifying any significant differences between these group means. There are two main types of ANOVA based on the complexity of the analysis: one-way and two-way.
One-way ANOVA is applied when a single independent variable or factor is scrutinized. It compares...

01:50Statistical Significance
20.2K
Once data is collected from both the experimental and the control groups, a statistical analysis is conducted to find out if there are meaningful differences between the two groups. A statistical analysis determines how likely any difference found is due to chance (and thus not meaningful). In psychology, group differences are considered meaningful, or significant, if the odds that these differences occurred by chance alone are 5 percent or less. Stated another way, if we repeated this...
