Abstract

Background: Recent literature on dorsal preservation rhinoplasty (DPR) has seen a resurgence. This study performs a bibliometric analysis of publications and co-authorships within this research area, considering factors such as gender, country of origin, international collaboration, and the originality of the presented data.

Methods: The PubMed-indexed literature on DPR from 2018 to 2024 was extracted and reviewed, limited to English publications. Descriptive statistics were performed regarding the contributors by gender, country, publishing journal, authorship rank, and department of affiliation. Association tests were used to determine the association between the originality of the data presented and the affiliation's country and department.

Results: One hundred seventy-five (n=174) articles were co-authored by (n=503) collaborators were included. Of those (75/503, 14.9%) were female physicians. The annual publishing rate on DPR rose from 5 papers in 2019 to 39 in 2024. The most common country in which the first author's affiliation was the United States (136/503, 27.0%), followed by Turkey (102/503, 20.2%). The most frequent department affiliation of the collaborators was Otolaryngology (270/503, 53.7%), followed by Plastic Surgery (178/503, 35.4%). There was a significant association between presenting original data and the country where the research originated (p < 0.0001), the department's affiliation (p =0.005), and publishing journal (p < 0.0001).

Conclusions: The resurgence in publications on DPR does not correspond to a major increase in the presentation of original data, which is essential for determining the evidence of this technique. The findings highlight areas for improvement, such as addressing gender disparities and promoting original data presentation, particularly among Otolaryngologists.
