Barry Marshall and Robin Warren from Australia, are the winners of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2005, “for their discovery of the bacterium Helicobacter pylori and its role in gastritis and peptic ulcer disease”. Our purpose was to study the H. pylori research performance based on 24, 624 documents published in Science Citation Index (SCI)-indexed periodicals between 1995 and 2004. These documents were analyzed and evaluated according to publication distribution and were used to determine the quantitative characteristics of H. pylori research. Methods Documents used in this study were based on the databases of the SCI which was accessed from the ISI Web of Science, Philadelphia, PA, USA. H. pylori and helicobacter pylori were used as keywords to search titles, abstracts, and keywords. Results Of the 12, 979 articles in SCI, 7, 154 articles had author keyword information. Among 10, 122 keywords, 7, 089 (70%) keywords were used only 1 time. Table 1. Major characteristics of the research Figure 1.

Publication activity of top ten countries Conclusions v The yearly production has increased with the United States producing 23% the articles followed by Japan with a 15% contribution. v Twelve document types were found in the total of 24, 624 documents. v The five most used author keywords were ‘Helicobacter pylori’, ‘gastritis’, ‘gastric cancer’, ‘duodenal ulcer’, and ‘peptic ulcer’. v The G 7 industrial countries (U. S. A. , Japan, Germany, U. K. , France, Italy, and Canada) represent a share of corresponding authors of 64% of world articles. v Forty-two percent of all articles were published in journals which listed in the category of gastroenterology & hepatology.
