Contribution of Turkey in Liver Transplant Research: A Scopus Database Search

CONCLUSIONS: Among countries, Turkey had the most living donor liver transplants in 2019 and could serve as a model to European countries for donor shortages. Although the United States performs 5 times more liver transplants than Turkey, their publications rate was almost 22 times more. Combining a workload of performing research and publishing along with transplant surgery is together hard to master. Although Turkey has valuable experiences and has opened frontiers in transplantation, publications need to keep up with their hard work and innovations.PMID:35607793 | DOI:10.6002/ect.2021.0491
