Abstract

At the beginning of 2020, human activities were interrupted by a new virus, identified as SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19 disease. The scientific area was no exception: for a certain period, researchers around the world were forced to leave their laboratories and work remotely. There was a global necessity for finding alternatives focused on generating knowledge and publishing data, so repositories of scientific information, such as databases, represented strong support. In the specific case of life sciences, different strategies allowed rapid compilation of data and its sharing worldwide. Therefore, in this work, the impact of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on the amount of peer-reviewed and published papers during COVID-19 times was analyzed along with the role of databases. Our results pointed out that an increase in the number of papers belonging to different knowledge fields took place, with the medical field being the most significant. On the other hand, the complete genome of the new virus was sequenced, and repositories were created with sufficient data for monitoring, preventing, and controlling its

COVID-19时代:对信息生成和数据共享的影响

2020年初，一种被确定为SARS-CoV-2的新病毒中断了人类活动，该病毒会导致COVID-19疾病。科学领域也不例外:在一段时间内，世界各地的研究人员被迫离开实验室，远程工作。全球有必要寻找以产生知识和发布数据为重点的替代办法，因此，诸如数据库之类的科学信息库提供了强有力的支持。在生命科学的具体案例中，不同的策略允许数据的快速汇编和全球共享。因此，在这项工作中，我们分析了SARS-CoV-2大流行对COVID-19期间同行评议和发表论文数量的影响以及数据库的作用。我们的结果指出，不同知识领域的论文数量都有所增加，其中以医学领域的增加最为显著。另一方面，对新病毒的全基因组进行了测序，并建立了具有足够数据的存储库，用于监测、预防和控制其
