概括
文章处理费用 (APC) 在各医学期刊之间有所不同. 混合期刊通常比开放访问 (OA) 期刊的成本更高,但像期刊影响因子 (JIF) 这样的声望指标几乎不能解释这种成本变化.
科学领域:
- 医学出版 医学出版
- 图书统计学 图书统计学
- 卫生经济学 卫生经济学
背景情况:
- 开放获取 (OA) 期刊增加了研究可访问性,但需要支付文章处理费用 (APC),这给研究人员带来了财务挑战.
- 在APC,期刊声望 (例如,期刊影响因子 - JIF) 和跨医学专业的变化之间的关系是不清楚的.
研究的目的:
- 调查各种医学专业中出版成本 (APC) 和期刊声望指标之间的相关性.
- 分析APC如何在跨医学领域的混合和完全开放获取期刊之间有所不同.
主要方法:
- 汇编了来自29个医学专业的1117个混合和OA期刊的数据.
- 计算了APC与期刊指标之间的皮尔森相关系数 (JIF,引用指标,引用数量,OA比例).
- 使用线性回归和巴特莱特测试来评估跨专业和出版模型的APC变异和差异.
主要成果:
- 根据专业,中位数APC的差异很大,在血液学/瘤学中最高 (4,690美元),在初级保健中最低 (2,690美元).
- 混合期刊的中位数APC (4248美元) 比OA期刊 (2909美元) 高.
- 在Q1期刊中,JIF和OA比例仅解释了APC变异的14.1%,观察到的相关性很弱 (APC-JIF:r=0.38,APC-引用:r=0.38,APC-OA%:r=-0.28).
结论:
- 混合期刊总是比完全开放的期刊有更高的APC.
- 虽然APC在专业内有所不同,但专业间的差异不那么明显.
- 期刊声望指标,如JIF和引用数量,解释了APC变化的很小一部分.

01:21Frequency-dependent Selection
22.2K
When the fitness of a trait is influenced by how common it is (i.e., its frequency) relative to different traits within a population, this is referred to as frequency-dependent selection. Frequency-dependent selection may occur between species or within a single species. This type of selection can either be positive—with more common phenotypes having higher fitness—or negative, with rarer phenotypes conferring increased fitness.

01:32The Scientific Method
246.4K
The scientific method is a detailed, empirical problem-solving process used by biologists and other scientists. This iterative approach involves formulating a question based on observation, developing a testable potential explanation for the observation (called a hypothesis), making and testing predictions based on the hypothesis, and using the findings to create new hypotheses and predictions.
Generally, predictions are tested using carefully-designed experiments. Based on the outcome of these...

49.6K
Cancers arise due to mutations in genes involved in the regulation of cell division, which leads to unrestricted cell proliferation. Modern science and medicine have made great strides in the understanding and treatment of cancer, including eradicating cancer in some patients. However, there is still no cure for cancer. This is largely due to the fact that cancer is a large group of many diseases.

01:33Pleiotropy
41.1K
Pleiotropy is the phenomenon in which a single gene impacts multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. For example, defects in the SOX10 gene cause Waardenburg Syndrome Type 4, or WS4, which can cause defects in pigmentation, hearing impairments, and an absence of intestinal contractions necessary for elimination. This diversity of phenotypes results from the expression pattern of SOX10 in early embryonic and fetal development. SOX10 is found in neural crest cells that form melanocytes,...
