Abstract

Background: The number of tuberculosis (TB)-related morbidities and mortalities is still high in the South-east Asian region. This study was performed to characterize and visualize the post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) TB research in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC).

Methods: The Web of Science Core Collection database was utilized. A total of 4822 documents were included in the final analysis according to the predefined eligibility criteria. The data were exported to the R package and VOSviewer software for factorial analysis and network visualization, respectively.

Results: The included documents were published in English between 2020 and 2024 in 1255 journals. These documents were authored by 17005 authors (3.53 authors/document). The authors collaboration index was noticed 3.61. In total, 74.16% documents were published as the article. The highest number of documents were published in 2022 (n = 1089). The documents published in 2020 received the highest number of mean total citations per article (n = 8.64). The most published journal was Cureus Journal of Medical Science (n = 228). The most prolific author was Gupta A (n = 115). The most active institution was the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (n = 587). The top most trending topics were Mycobacterium tuberculosis, TB elimination, molecular docking, extrapulmonary TB, Cartridge Based Nucleic Acid Amplification Test, and multidrug resistance. India was the most productive country and had the strongest research collaboration with the United States of America (USA), the United Kingdom (UK), and South Africa. Pakistan was mainly collaborating with the USA, the UK, Saudi Arabia, and China. The India and Pakistan collaboration was observed only in 66 documents.

Conclusion: There is a poor output of scientific publication on TB in most SAARC countries. However, it is recognized that India has produced the highest number of scientific publications. The detection of undiagnosed post-COVID-19 pandemic TB cases is crucial to control further cases in the region. An effective regional cooperation should be established among institutions, universities, and countries to achieve the World Health Organization End TB goals.

南亚区域合作联盟国家结核病研究的地区和国家趋势:COVID-19大流行后的机器学习因子分析》(Post-COVID-19 Pandemic Machine Learning Factorial Analysis)。
背景:在东南亚地区,与结核病(TB)相关的发病率和死亡率仍然居高不下。本研究旨在对南亚区域合作联盟(SAARC)2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)后结核病研究的特点进行描述和可视化:方法:利用科学网核心数据库。根据预先设定的资格标准,共有 4822 篇文献被纳入最终分析。数据被导出到 R 软件包和 VOSviewer 软件中,分别用于因子分析和网络可视化:纳入的文献是 2020 年至 2024 年间在 1255 种期刊上发表的英文文献。这些文献由 1,7005 位作者撰写(3.53 位作者/篇文献)。作者合作指数为 3.61。共有 74.16% 的文献以文章形式发表。2022年发表的文献数量最多(n = 1089)。2020 年发表的文件平均每篇被引用次数最多(n = 8.64)。发表论文最多的期刊是《Cureus 医学科学杂志》(n = 228)。最多产的作者是古普塔-A(n = 115)。最活跃的机构是全印度医学科学研究所(n = 587)。最热门的话题是结核分枝杆菌、消除结核病、分子对接、肺外结核病、盒式核酸扩增试验和耐多药。印度是成果最多的国家,与美利坚合众国(美国)、联合王国(英国)和南非的研究合作最为紧密。巴基斯坦主要与美国、英国、沙特阿拉伯和中国合作。印度和巴基斯坦的合作仅出现在 66 份文件中:结论:大多数南亚区域合作联盟国家在结核病方面的科学出版物产出较少。结论:大多数南亚区域合作联盟国家的结核病科学出版物数量较少,但印度的科学出版物数量最多。发现 COVID-19 大流行后未确诊的肺结核病例对于控制该地区更多的病例至关重要。各机构、大学和国家之间应建立有效的区域合作,以实现世界卫生组织终结结核病的目标。
