Objective:To analyze the bibliometric indicators of Chinese Journal of Nautical Medicine and Hyperbaric Medicine from 2014 to 2018, so as to improve its academic level and influence. Methods:Based on the statistical data from the core edition of the Chinese S& T Journal Citation Reports and part of the data provided by Wanfang Database Journal Bibliometric Evaluation Center, the changes of bibliometric indicators of Chinese Journal of Nautical Medicine and Hyperbaric Medicine from 2014 to 2018 were analyzed, including the impact factor, the citation frequency, the immediacy index, the cited half-life, the amount of published papers, the ratio of funded papers, and the number of papers published by high impact authors. Results:Among the cited indicators of the journal from 2014 to 2018, the impact factor showed an increasing trend year by year, and the highest year was in 2018 (0.757); the lowest citation frequency was in 2014 (86 times), the highest one was in 2018 (148 times), and there was a slightly fluctuation of that from 2015 to 2017; the lowest immediacy index was in 2014 (0.055), the highest one was in 2017 (0.105), and there was a slight decrease in the immediacy index in 2018 compared with that in 2017; the cited half-life showed a decreasing trend year by year, with the highest in 2014 (6.4 years) and the lowest in 2018 (4.3 years); among the source indicators, the amount of published papers slightly fluctuated from 2014 to 2018, with the lowest in 2018 (129 articles) and the highest in 2015 (187 articles); the highest ratio of funded papers was in 2015 (38.0%, 71/187) and the lowest was in 2016 (19.8%, 34/172); from 2014 to 2018, the number of papers published by high impact authors decreased year by year, with the highest in 2014 and 2015 (both were 94 articles) and the lowest in 2018 (39 articles).Conclusion:The bibliometric indicators of Chinese Journal of Nautical Medicine and Hyperbaric Medicine from 2014 to 2018 are generally good, and the information output, academic influence and level of the journal are steadily improving. Yet, more active measures should be taken to maintain and improve the academic quality of papers published on the journal to increase its academic influence and international dissemination.

OBJECTIVE: To build information repository of the carrying rate of neonatal deafness gene in Shijiazhuang. METHOD: Blood samples were collected from the heel in 3-days neonates. Mutations of the deafness related genes were detected by the method of fluorescent PCR. Neonates received the detection of 6 mutation sites from 3 genes, including GJB2 (235delC, 299-300delAT), SLC26A4 (IVS7-2A> G, 2168A> G), mitochondrial DNA12S rRNA(1494C>T,1555A>G). RESULT: There were 384 neonates who carried mutations among 421 subjects and the carrying rate was 4.08%, 158 (1.68%) newborns carried heterozygous mutations and 1 (0.01%) case carried homogeneous mutation of GJB2 (235 delC), 55 (0.58%) neonates carried heterozygous mutations of GJB2 (299-300delAT); 133 (1.41%) neonates carried heterozygous mutations and 1 (0.01%) homogeneous of SLC26A4(IVS7-2A>G),19 (0.20%) newborns carried heterozygous mutations of SLC26A4 (2168A>G). The numbers of neonates who carried homogeneous and heterogeneous mutation of mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene were 14 and 3 with carring rates of 0.15% and 0.03%. Two newborns were found to carry more than one mutation. One carried 235delC, IVS7-2A>G and 1555A>G and another carried 235delC and IVS7-2A>G. CONCLUSION The main mutational patterns were 235delC from GJB2 gene and IVS7-2A>G from SLC26A4 gene in Shijiazhuang newborns. The carrying rate information repository of neonatal deafness gene has been built preliminarily.
