Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Objective. This study examined the Covid-19 associated coagulopathy (CAC) publication and citation trends, focusing on the top authors, countries, organizations, journals, collaboration, subject areas, keywords, and high-cited articles. Design/Methodology/Approach. Publications data on Covid-19 associated coagulopathy (CAC) were identified and extracted from the Scopus database. Data analysis has been performed using VOS viewer software, Biblioshiny, and MS Excel Software. Results/Discussion. The study identified 1740 articles on Covid-19 associated coagulopathy from the Scopus database, which received 47,502 citations, averaging 27.3 citations per paper. In all, 905 authors from 601 organizations originating in 96 countries participated in research and published in 776 journals. United States (n=498), Italy (n=258), and China (n=164) contributed the most publications. While China (73.43 and 2.69), France (57.60 and 2.11,) and Germany (50.13 and 1.84) registered the highest citation per paper (CPP) and relative citation index (RCI). Harvard Medical School, USA (N=44), Huazhong University of S&T, China (N=41), and Tongji Medical College, China (N=39), lead with most of the publications. In contrast, Tongji Medical College, China (198.31 and 7.26), Huazhong University of S&T, China (198.15 and 7.26), and University College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, U.K (129.23 and 4.73) lead in citation impact. J. H. Levy, T. Iba and M. Levy contributed to most of the publications (27, 25, and 20), while N. Tag (804.75 and 29.48), A. Tripodi (157.83 and 5.78), and J. Thachil (154.17 and 5.65) registered the highest citation impact by CPP and RCI. Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis, and Thrombosis Research were the most productive ones (with 55, 51, and 46 publications). At the same time, Medical Hypotheses (1222), Blood (355.71) and Thrombosis Journal (233.86) were the most impactful journals. The top 9 keywords in terms of frequency of occurrences were “Covid-19” (n=1681), “Blood Clotting” (n=952), “D Dimer” (n=652), “Coagulopathy” (n=628), “Thrombosis” (n=584), “Blood” (506), “Anticoagulants” (n=499), “Blood Coagulation” (n=426) and “Fibrinogen” (n=376). Conclusions. Global research on Covid-19 associated coagulopathy since the pandemic was considered for scientometric assessment for the first time, combining the productivity and citation measures to present an overall picture of the literature in this area. Such an analysis will provide scholars and policy-makers with a meaningful reference for further exploration of topical issues and research trends in the field.
