BackgroundNational Health Systems managers have been subject in recent years to considerable pressure to increase concentration and allow mergers. This pressure has been justified by a belief that larger hospitals lead to lower average costs and better clinical outcomes through the exploitation of economies of scale. In this context, the opportunity to measure scale efficiency is crucial to address the question of optimal productive size and to manage a fair allocation of resources.Methods and findingsThis paper analyses the stance of existing research on scale efficiency and optimal size of the hospital sector. We performed a systematic search of 45 past years (1969–2014) of research published in peer-reviewed scientific journals recorded by the Social Sciences Citation Index concerning this topic. We classified articles by the journal’s category, research topic, hospital setting, method and primary data analysis technique. Results showed that most of the studies were focussed on the analysis of technical and scale efficiency or on input / output ratio using Data Envelopment Analysis. We also find increasing interest concerning the effect of possible changes in hospital size on quality of care.ConclusionsStudies analysed in this review showed that economies of scale are present for merging hospitals. Results supported the current policy of expanding larger hospitals and restructuring/closing smaller hospitals. In terms of beds, studies reported consistent evidence of economies of scale for hospitals with 200–300 beds. Diseconomies of scale can be expected to occur below 200 beds and above 600 beds.

Australian and New Zealand journal of statistics Impact Factor 2024-2025 - ResearchHelpDesk - The Australian & New Zealand Journal of Statistics is an international journal managed jointly by the Statistical Society of Australia and the New Zealand Statistical Association. Its purpose is to report significant and novel contributions in statistics, ranging across articles on statistical theory, methodology, applications and computing. The journal has a particular focus on statistical techniques that can be readily applied to real-world problems, and on application papers with an Australasian emphasis. Outstanding articles submitted to the journal may be selected as Discussion Papers, to be read at a meeting of either the Statistical Society of Australia or the New Zealand Statistical Association. The main body of the journal is divided into three sections. The Theory and Methods Section publishes papers containing original contributions to the theory and methodology of statistics, econometrics and probability, and seeks papers motivated by a real problem and which demonstrate the proposed theory or methodology in that situation. There is a strong preference for papers motivated by, and illustrated with, real data. The Applications Section publishes papers demonstrating applications of statistical techniques to problems faced by users of statistics in the sciences, government and industry. A particular focus is the application of newly developed statistical methodology to real data and the demonstration of better use of established statistical methodology in an area of application. It seeks to aid teachers of statistics by placing statistical methods in context. The Statistical Computing Section publishes papers containing new algorithms, code snippets, or software descriptions (for open source software only) which enhance the field through the application of computing. Preference is given to papers featuring publically available code and/or data, and to those motivated by statistical methods for practical problems. In addition, suitable review papers and articles of historical and general interest will be considered. The journal also publishes book reviews on a regular basis.

Objective: To know the current publication of Anesthesiology and Obstetrics and Gynecology subareas, to support the updating of Qualis Journals criteria in these specific subareas. Method: Cross-sectional, descriptive study in which was evaluated in quantitatively and qualitatively way the bibliographic production of Anesthesiology and Obstetrics and Gynecology subareas, from January 2010 to December 2012. Were investigated the values of the impact factor; calculated (i) the number (n) and the percentage of journals in each stratum Qualis A1, A2, B1, B2, B3, B4 and B5, and (ii) the median values and their extreme limits (minimum values and maximum) and quartiles (p25; p50; p75; p90) of the impact factors in the different strata. Results: The bibliographic production of the three-year period 2010-2012 was published in 69 journals in Anesthesiology subarea and in 345 in Gynecology and Obstetrics. In Anesthesiology, 44% were within the limits of impact factor of superior A1, A2 and B1; in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 42.4% were in those limits and strata. Conclusions: Despite lagging behind by international standards, publications of Anesthesiology and Obstetrics and Gynecology showed tendency to improve the quality. In these sub-areas, the median of journals impact factor is beyond the limits defined by the area in the last assessment. Therefore, it must be reconsidered new indicators to assess this aspect.

This dataset provides geospatial location data and scripts used to analyze the relationship between MODIS-derived NDVI and solar and sensor angles in a pinyon-juniper ecosystem in Grand Canyon National Park. The data are provided in support of the following publication: "Solar and sensor geometry, not vegetation response, drive satellite NDVI phenology in widespread ecosystems of the western United States". The data and scripts allow users to replicate, test, or further explore results. The file GrcaScpnModisCellCenters.csv contains locations (latitude-longitude) of all the 250-m MODIS (MOD09GQ) cell centers associated with the Grand Canyon pinyon-juniper ecosystem that the Southern Colorado Plateau Network (SCPN) is monitoring through its land surface phenology and integrated upland monitoring programs. The file SolarSensorAngles.csv contains MODIS angle measurements for the pixel at the phenocam location plus a random 100 point subset of pixels within the GRCA-PJ ecosystem. The script files (folder: 'Code') consist of 1) a Google Earth Engine (GEE) script used to download MODIS data through the GEE javascript interface, and 2) a script used to calculate derived variables and to test relationships between solar and sensor angles and NDVI using the statistical software package 'R'. The file Fig_8_NdviSolarSensor.JPG shows NDVI dependence on solar and sensor geometry demonstrated for both a single pixel/year and for multiple pixels over time. (Left) MODIS NDVI versus solar-to-sensor angle for the Grand Canyon phenocam location in 2018, the year for which there is corresponding phenocam data. (Right) Modeled r-squared values by year for 100 randomly selected MODIS pixels in the SCPN-monitored Grand Canyon pinyon-juniper ecosystem. The model for forward-scatter MODIS-NDVI is log(NDVI) ~ solar-to-sensor angle. The model for back-scatter MODIS-NDVI is log(NDVI) ~ solar-to-sensor angle + sensor zenith angle. Boxplots show interquartile ranges; whiskers extend to 10th and 90th percentiles. The horizontal line marking the average median value for forward-scatter r-squared (0.835) is nearly indistinguishable from the back-scatter line (0.833). The dataset folder also includes supplemental R-project and packrat files that allow the user to apply the workflow by opening a project that will use the same package versions used in this study (eg, .folders Rproj.user, and packrat, and files .RData, and PhenocamPR.Rproj). The empty folder GEE_DataAngles is included so that the user can save the data files from the Google Earth Engine scripts to this location, where they can then be incorporated into the r-processing scripts without needing to change folder names. To successfully use the packrat information to replicate the exact processing steps that were used, the user should refer to packrat documentation available at https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/packrat/index.html and at https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/packrat/versions/0.5.0. Alternatively, the user may also use the descriptive documentation phenopix package documentation, and description/references provided in the associated journal article to process the data to achieve the same results using newer packages or other software programs.

Research data to accommodate the article "Overlay journals: a study of the current landscape" (https://doi.org/10.1177/09610006221125208)

Identifying the sample of overlay journals was an explorative process (occurring during April 2021 to February 2022). The sample of investigated overlay journals were identified by using the websites of Episciences.org (2021), Scholastica (2021), Free Journal Network (2021), Open Journals (2021), PubPub (2022), and Wikipedia (2021). In total, this study identified 34 overlay journals. Please see the paper for more details about the excluded journal types.

The journal ISSN numbers, manuscript source repositories, first overlay volumes, article volumes, publication languages, peer-review type, licence for published articles, author costs, publisher types, submission policy, and preprint availability policy were observed by inspecting journal editorial policies and submission guidelines found from journal websites. The overlay journals’ ISSN numbers were identified by examining journal websites and cross-checking this information with the Ulrich’s periodicals database (Ulrichsweb, 2021). Journals that published review reports, either with reviewers’ names or anonymously, were classified as operating with open peer-review. Publisher types defined by Laakso and Björk (2013) were used to categorise the findings concerning the publishers. If the journal website did not include publisher information, the editorial board was interpreted to publish the journal.

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) field of science classification was used to categorise the journals into different domains of science. The journals’ primary OECD field of sciences were defined by the authors through examining the journal websites.

Whether the journals were indexed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Scopus, or Clarivate Analytics’ Web of Science Core collection’s journal master list was examined by searching the services with journal ISSN numbers and journal titles.

The identified overlay journals were examined from the viewpoint of both qualitative and quantitative journal metrics. The qualitative metrics comprised the Nordic expert panel rankings of scientific journals, namely the Finnish Publication Forum, the Danish Bibliometric Research Indicator and the Norwegian Register for Scientific Journals, Series and Publishers. Searches were conducted from the web portals of the above services with both ISSN numbers and journal titles. Clarivate Analytics’ Journal Citation Reports database was searched with the use of both ISSN numbers and journal titles to identify whether the journals had a Journal Citation Indicator (JCI), Two-Year Impact Factor (IF) and an Impact Factor ranking (IF rank). The examined Journal Impact Factors and Impact Factor rankings were for the year 2020 (as released in 2021).
