A Bibliometric Analysis of the Journal of Telemedicine and Telecare: 2007-2022

Journal of Telemedicine and Telecare (JTT) is one of the leading journals in the world of telemedicine and has a strong influence on research in this field. This study aims to understand the change of the journal over the years and to present a summary about the emerging issues in the field of telemedicine. The analysis used a bibliometric method. JTT has published 1489 articles, 68 reviews, 30 letters, 17 editorials, 6 Erratum and 5 notes until August 2022. All these studies yielded a rate of approximately 19 citations per study, and the journal received a total of 29,423 citations, excluding self citations of all authors. Although the most significant year in terms of publications is 2021 (176), it is 2007 (2948) in terms of the number of cited publications. Moreover, the research by Smith et al.(2020) has been the most cited article (727) in JTT. America (the US) is the leading country in the categories of total publications (495) and the total citations (9625). Australia and the United Kingdom (the UK) are ranked second and third, respectively. European countries are mostly in the top 10. Additionally, JTT has received a significant attention from authors in Europe, America and Australian. Telemedicine is an evolving field and has provided an opportunity to follow the issues of journals in this field and to examine developments in telemedicine. This study presents a telemedicine framework by examining the process of JTT.
