摘要：In the present study, we have collected all Nobel Prize-winning articles in the field of Physiology or Medicine from the Web of Science and highlighted the journal impact distribution of these articles. We then explored reference information to understand the articles referenced by the prize-winning papers. Results show that (1) the prize-winning papers cite a large number of journals which have relatively low impact factors and not all prize-winning papers were published in high-quality journals; (2) Method, such as refined experimental techniques, laboratory manuals, etc., is the most popular article type that has been cited; (3) The prize-winning papers, especially recently published ones, show an increasing trend to cite earlier published articles as references.
