Identifying Translational Science T1-T4 is qualitative, no consensus on precise definition. Can a bibliometric technique quantitatively identify translation? Weber GM. Identifying translational science within the triangle of biomedicine. J Transl Med May 24;11:126. doi: / Image from

Research Levels - Francis Narin 1976 LevelNameCategoryPrototype Journals 1Clinical Observation Clinical Medicine The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) 2Clinical MixClinical Medicine New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) 3Clinical Investigation Biomedical Research Journal of Clinical Investigation (JCI) 4Basic ResearchBiomedical Research The Journal of Biological Chemistry (JBC) Narin assigns other journals to a level based on which prototype journals reference it most. Grant Lewison (2004) classifies articles based on whether their titles include one of 100 “basic” or 100 “clinical” keywords.

ACH Classification – Weber 2013 Based on MeSH terms assigned to articles “H”: Humans B (Human), M01 (Person) “A”: Animals B01 (Eukaryota) [except Human] “C”: Cells and Molecules A11 (Cells), B02 (Archaea), B03 (Bacteria), B04 (Viruses), G (Molecular Structures), G (Chemical Processes) If multiple terms then AC, AH, CH, ACH

Limitations NLM takes a year or more to assign MeSH terms to articles. Would the results be different using a commercial dataset? “H” category very large. Should there be a “P” category for health practice? Weber GM. Identifying translational science within the triangle of biomedicine. J Transl Med May 24;11:126. doi: /
