Abstract
Objective: Scientometric analysis helps to understand the research trends and identify top contributors, publishers, trends, and research topics. Laryngopharyngeal reflux has been a topic of interest in research and clinical practice. The literature on laryngopharyngeal reflux is evolving and a scientometric analysis will help us understand the trends better. The present study aimed to analyze published data to identify trends, top contributors, top institutions and countries, growth of publications, keywords and keyword co-occurrence.
Methods: The present study aims to analyze the evolution of Laryngopharyngeal reflux research using a scientometric analysis approach for publications from the Scopus database using keywords related to laryngopharyngeal reflux. Documents related to laryngopharyngeal reflux were identified for further analysis. Microsoft Excel and VosViewer were used to perform bibliometric analysis.
Results: A total of 7,327 hits were obtained, and after applying filter, 5637 studies were retained for further analysis. The results revealed an increase in publications on LPR, which surged after the early 2000s. The Unites States had the maximum research output, and the Journal of Voice had the highest number of publications. The keyword co-occurrence analysis helped identify five research themes on laryngopharyngeal reflux.
Conclusion: The findings reveal a rising trend in laryngopharyngeal reflux, especially in recent years. The presence of international collaborations and a high volume of research will help bridge gaps, enable capacity building and improve understanding of LPR.
