The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.6 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 2.2 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.3 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00058 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.33 SJR: 0.345 SNIP: 0.46 CiteScore™:: 2.5 H-Index: 67

RESUMO

Pterygium is a common ocular surface disease characterized by the abnormal epithelial proliferation, matrix remodeling, vascularization and the migration of the lesion. Although the etiology of pterygium is elusive, recent studies have focused on the role of limbal stem cells (LSCs) damage and effects of UVB. This study aimed to determine the expression levels of pluripotent markers of SOX2 and OCT4 in primary pterygium and normal conjunctiva.
Using real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the SOX2 and OCT4 expressions were compared in primary pterygium and normal conjunctiva. This study assessed the correlation between SOX2 mRNA expression and OCT4 mRNA expression, as well as the association between the clinicopathological indices and both gene expression levels. The relative mRNA expression levels of OCT4 genes in primary pterygium were significantly reduced compared to the normal conjunctiva tissues. The association between OCT4 gene expression and the clinicopathological indices reported significant laterality (P = .004) and marginal growth activity indices (P = .063). The univariate correlation between the SOX2 and OCT4 expressions was statistically significant (P = .001).
The present study emphasized the downregulation of pluripotent marker OCT4 genes in the pterygium. It is speculated that these results may predict a new avenue for exploring the role of stem cell deficiency in the development of pterygium.
