Abstract

The aim of this study was to identify the factors that predict societal and professional impact of orthodontic research and determine the orthodontic research articles that achieved the greatest societal impact. Medline was used to identify all orthodontic research articles published in 2019 in orthodontic or non-orthodontic journals. Author affiliations, journal, article type and grant-funding were collected from Medline. Journal impact factors (IF) were obtained from Incites Journal Citation Reports, article-level metrics including Altmetric Attention Score (AAS) were sourced using Altmetric Explorer, citation counts were retrieved from Scopus, news mentions were searched using ProQuest. Data analysis comprised descriptive statistics, frequency distributions, cross-tabulations and un/adjusted negative binomial regression models (P
