Abstract
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the articles regarding rhinology published in national otorhinolaryngology journals between 2010 and 2015 according to the manuscript type, headline, citation city, and institution, as a reference for studies that will be designed in the future. METHODS: Articles published on rhinology between 2010 and 2015 in national otorhinolaryngology journals were searched through websites of journals. The names of the journals, subjects of the manuscripts, manuscript type, citation city and institution, and manuscript language were recorded. RESULTS: In this study, 890 articles were reviewed in 6 national otorhinolaryngology journals. Of these, 274 were regarding rhinology and 129 (47%) and 117 (42.7%) were original articles and case reports, respectively. Of the 274 articles, 21 (7.7%) and 5 (1.9%) were review and animal studies, respectively, and 2 (0.7%) articles defined surgical technique. Most frequently studied topics were benign tumors and inflammatory diseases of the paranasal sinuses. CONCLUSION: The ratio of case reports was relatively high in national rhinology publications. In future, smell and taste disorders, skull base surgery, and nasal physiology-related to Rhinology may be innovative research areas.
