Abstract:
Objective To know the TCM discipline development situation through analysis on TCM articles based on Chinese Science Citation Database (CSCD) in recent years. Methods Articles about TCM in CSCD from January 2010 to December 2015 were searched by computers. The CSCD literature analysis system was used to conduct metrological analysis from the aspects of publishing time, source journals, cited information, authors, publishing organizations, research themes, and fund support. Results The number of articles published on CSCD was increasing year by year from January 2010 to December 2015. 85.09% of articles focused on the field of general medicine. There were more than 100 CSCD journals included in TCM professional articles. 17 journals published more than 100 TCM professional articles. WANG Yong-yan academician was the author who published the most articles (121 papers). Academic output H index of six authors was more than 5. 31.52% articles in CSCD were cited. Natural Science Foundation of China (including general and youth projects) funded the highest number of articles (12.2%), reaching 1716 articles. Conclusion Analysis on articles from CSCD can outline the development situation of TCM discipline in China. In recent years, the number of TCM articles is increasing; subject integration is good; high-level teams are forming gradually; TCM discipline is developing fast. However, the citation frequency is low; scholar H index is not high; the overall level remains to be improved.
