Abstract
Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato and Echinococcus multilocularis are responsible for serious health and economic implications for humans and animals. This study was designed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of global research on echinococcosis/hydatidosis included in the Web of Science Core Collection databases from 2000 to 2019. A total of 7066 relevant articles between 2000 and 2019 were identified. Most articles were published in 2015 (502 articles), 2017 (492 articles) and 2018 (493 articles), with the Veterinary Parasitology journal publishing the largest number of articles (237). Researchers from Xinjiang Medical University, China authored the most articles (388) in the field. Authors Craig, P.S. and Deplazes, P. were the most active in publishing143 and 126 hydatid cyst research papers, respectively. The most echinococcosis/hydatidosis publications originated from Turkey, China and Iran, with 1210, 708 and 531 articles, respectively. The highest levels of research collaboration were evident between China- England, China-France, England-France, China-Australia, and China-Japan. Also, the top researchers in this field had relatively extensive collaborations with each other. Our bibliometric analysis provides a picture of the scientific research into the echinococcosis/hydatidosis field. Further multi-national collaborative research efforts in this field should show promising progress in the future.
包虫病/包虫病研究二十年:基于web of science核心馆藏数据库的文献计量学分析(2000-2019)
细粒棘球绦虫和多房棘球绦虫对人类和动物造成严重的健康和经济影响。本研究旨在对2000年至2019年Web of Science核心收集数据库中关于棘球蚴病/包虫病的全球研究进行文献计量学分析。在2000年至2019年期间,共确定了7066篇相关文章。发表文章最多的是2015年(502篇)、2017年(492篇)和2018年(493篇),其中《兽医寄生虫学》期刊发表文章最多(237篇)。中国新疆医科大学的研究人员在该领域发表了最多的文章(388篇)。作者Craig, P.S.和Deplazes, P.分别发表了143篇和126篇包虫病研究论文,表现最为活跃。包虫病/包虫病的出版物主要来自土耳其、中国和伊朗,分别有1210篇、708篇和531篇。中英、中法、英法、中澳和中日之间的研究合作水平最高。此外,这一领域的顶尖研究人员之间的合作也比较广泛。我们的文献计量学分析提供了包虫病/包虫病领域的科学研究概况。在这一领域进一步的多国合作研究将在未来显示出有希望的进展。
期刊介绍:
Food and Waterborne Parasitology publishes high quality papers containing original research findings, investigative reports, and scientific proceedings on parasites which are transmitted to humans via the consumption of food or water. The relevant parasites include protozoa, nematodes, cestodes and trematodes which are transmitted by food or water and capable of infecting humans. Pertinent food includes products of animal or plant origin which are domestic or wild, and consumed by humans. Animals and plants from both terrestrial and aquatic sources are included, as well as studies related to potable and other types of water which serve to harbor, perpetuate or disseminate food and waterborne parasites. Studies dealing with prevalence, transmission, epidemiology, risk assessment and mitigation, including control measures and test methodologies for parasites in food and water are of particular interest. Evidence of the emergence of such parasites and interactions among domestic animals, wildlife and humans are of interest. The impact of parasites on the health and welfare of humans is viewed as very important and within scope of the journal. Manuscripts with scientifically generated information on associations between food and waterborne parasitic diseases and lifestyle, culture and economies are also welcome. Studies involving animal experiments must meet the International Guiding Principles for Biomedical Research Involving Animals as issued by the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences.
