NAVARRO, P.; CANTIN, M.  y  OTTONE, N.E.. Research design used in dental journals of scielo network: a bibliometric vision. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2016, vol.32, n.3, pp.153-158. ISSN 2340-3152.

Introduction: The aim of this research was to identify the characteristics that differentiate research design for classification. A descriptive bibliometric review was performed where dental SciELO journals between the first semester of 2013 and the first semester of 2014 were identified. Material and methods: A descriptive bibliometric review was performed where dental SciELO journals were identified to determine the different types of research design from original articles published in dental journals indexed in SciELO database between the first semester of 2013 and the first semester of 2014. A stratified sampling with proportional allocation was performed with a total of 4.262 published original articles giving a sample of 309 articles. Results: The most of original articles correspond to Cross Sectional design (121), Cases-Controls (68), In vitro (34), Case Series (25), Clinical Trial (13), Cases Review (12), One Case Review (7). In vivo designs, Systematic Review, Correational design, cohort and other (website review, preliminary study, bibliometric analysis, others) were observed remotely. Conclusions: The most widely used design was Cross-Sectional. In second place is Case-Control design and thirdly is the In vitro design. Dental research designs must be improved for better evidence.
