Özet

Objective: To identify and analyze the 100 most cited articles on thyroid cancer since 1975, thus, allowing their easy access for researchers in this field. Material and Methods: This study is a bibliometric analysis of research publications acquired from the Web of Science database. We evaluated the first 100 articles receiving the most citations in the field of thyroid cancer since 1975. Then, all research publications were compiled using journal information into different cate-gories based on the study type, country, research centers, authors, and publication dates. All data were reported as percentages, numbers, and graphs. Results: In this study, we listed 8,608 full-length English-language articles. Our findings showed that the most cited article received 4,325 citations to date, while the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology Metabolism, a Thyroid journal, received the most number of citations (n:6531), publishing seventeen of the articles from our study. Also, thirty-two articles were from the field of oncology. The country with the most number of publications was the United States of America (n=70) in the years 2005, 2008, and 2009 (n=8). Conclusion: It is essential to acknowledge the top-cited articles in thyroid cancer since they contain essential information, research, and advances in its treatment. Our analysis of the first 100 articles included the most important papers with the most significant impact on thyroid cancer research. In our list, we acknowledged the most productive authors and institutions along with their research articles.
