Abstract

Background and Aim: The production of science is the key element of program to achieve sustainable development. Currently, the most important characteristic to produce knowledge is the number of document indexed from scientific journals in databases that do bibliometry and Scientometrics study. The aim of this study is evaluation of scientific production of Iranian medical domain based on the document indexed form scientific journal in chosen database, between 2005-2009.

Materials and Methods: Analytical- descriptive method and bibliometry analytic was adapted. The study population includes all scientific journals that was published in English and indexed in WOS and Scopus until of the time of this study. Data collection tool was check list that was made by researchers & complete by referring and direct observation in WOS and Scopus databases. Data was analyzed by SPSS and other statistical methods.

Results: Showed that from 44 journals title that studied, 18 titles was indexed in WOS and 20 titles was indexed in Scopus. The number of records and citation, according to the review with passing year, has been rising. Maximum number of documents and citations are related to the final years. Number of records in the Scopus database is more than WOS, but the differences in not significant (P- value = 0/186).

Discussion and Concoction: Journals visibility in the medical science filed in review databases in not desirable. Less than 50 percent of scientific journals were indexed in databases. Between the years studied, the scientific production of medical area of the country has been growing but to reach the proper situation, more effort is required.

Volume 12, Issue 2 (7-2018)
Abstract
Background and Aim: The review of scientific products in reputable international databases is a guideline for policy-making and planning, in addition to determining the present status and shortcomings. The aim of this study is to investigate the scientific products of the research centers affiliated to Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) and Isfahan University of Medical Sciences (MUI) indexed in Scopus during 2009-2013.
Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional study with a functional approach. All articles of research centers of TUMS (5880 articles) and MUI (2154 articles) from 2009 to 2013 were retrieved from Scopus and analyzed. To compare the means, t-test was used.  Moreover, the data were analyzed by SPSS and Excel softwares.
Results: The scientific products of both universities’ research centers in Scopus index have grown in the years under review. Most of the papers were from Tehran Endocrinology and Metabolism and Isfahan Cardiovascular Research Centers, and most of the products belonged to the subject areas of the endocrinology and metabolism, pharmaceutical sciences and cardiovascular science. No significant difference was found between the scientific products of the centers of the two universities. 
Conclusion: The growth of scientific production of these research centers indicates the importance of scientific products in line with sustainable development in Iran. Presenting the findings of similar studies can be effective in motivating researchers and supporting research by institutions.

Volume 14, Issue 1 (3-2020)
Abstract
Background and Aim: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the scientific outputs of the faculty members of the information science and science departments of Iranian state universities in the Science Research Network and its impact on their scientific outputs in databases and search engines.
Materials and Methods: This study was applied in terms of purpose, survey methodology and Altmetrics approach. The statistical population of the study consisted of 118 faculty members in the field of information science and social sciences active in Social- Scientific Network from 29 Governmental universities in the country. Pearson correlation coefficient, independent t-test, Kruskal-Wallis were used for data analysis.
Results: The findings showed that the authors of Isfahan, Tehran University of Medical Siences and Shahid Chamran of Ahvaz Universities are the most active members of the faculty in ResearchGate in terms of Altmetrics characteristics. In terms of RG score, faculty members with associate's degree perform better than the others. There is also a positive correlation between the Altmetrics indicators of ResearchGate network and the scientometric indicators of Scopus citation database and Google Scholar.
Conclusion: Since there was a positive correlation between Altmetrics indexes in ResearchGate with Scinientometrics indexes in Google Scholar and Scopus, so this leads to the visibility of their scientific work and their improvement of citation indexes in databases.
