title: HIT score for 213,215 medical informatics publications during 2010-2020

description: We use three MeSH branches as representations of Health-demand, Informatics-supply, and Technological applications (hereafter, H-I-T model) and use their co-occurrences to measure the digital medical innovation process in China. The detailed definition of HIT is as follows：1) H: The entire “Diseases [C]” branch as well as two subbranches, i.e., “Health [N01.400]” and “Public Health [N06.850]” are regarded as a representation of health demand for HIT innovations. “Health [N01.400]” and “Public Health [N06.850]” are under the branches “Population Characteristics [N01]” and “Environmental and Public Health [N06]”, respectively—with the top root “Health Care [N]”. So, we use two MeSH terms “health” and “public health” to represent the population health demand, and the "diseases category" MeSH terms to indicate the individual health demand (specific diseases management).2) I: The “Information Science [L]” branch as a representation of the supply side in terms of informatics concepts and techniques.3) T: The “Analytic, Diagnostic, and Therapeutic Techniques and Equipment [E]” branch is a representation of the state of the art of technological applications, namely the functions to be realized by informatics, e.g., diagnosis, therapeutics, surgical procedures, investigative techniques, equipment and supplies.In the H-I-T model, every related article can be classified as Health demand (H), Informatics-supply (I), Technological applications (T), or a combination of these three using its MeSH terms and HIT score. MeSH terms are arranged in an alphabetical and hierarchical structure from the most general level to the narrowest level. Table 1 shows the branches of MeSH terms used in distinguishing the H-I-T classification. Note that since the MeSH term “Public Health” has another tree number H02.403.720 (Branch of medicine concerned with the prevention and control of disease and disability, and the promotion of physical and mental health of the population on the international, national, state, or municipal level), terms under this branch are also included in health-demand (H) category. These terms include Epidemiology, Molecular Epidemiology, Pharmacoepidemiology, Preventive Medicine, Environmental Medicine, Occupational Medicine, Preventive Psychiatry.To calculate the HIT score, the MeSH list and the MeSH terms contained in each article are required:The MeSH 2020 stored in file: MeSH_trees.csvThe UK/US/CHINA/WORLD's medical informatics publications and HIT scores stored in files: redo_cn_HIT_pall.csv redo_UK_HIT_pall.csv redo_UK_HIT_pall.csv redo_WORLD_HIT_pall.csvAll files contain publication id(pubid),publish year(year),mesh terms(mesh),H score(H),I score(I),T score(T)
