Overview of Poisons and Antivenoms Research
Evaluate the productivity and visibility in research, clinical studies Brunei Email List , treatment, use, and production of antivenoms against poisonous snake, spider, and scorpion bites. Bibliometric analysis of research and other activities. The articles on poisons and antivenoms published between 2000 and 2020 in the Scopus database were taken. These documents were analyzed using bibliometric indicators such as the number of documents per year, journals, authors or frequency of citations. VOS viewer® Brunei Email List was used to create a bibliometric network for country co-authorship and term co-occurrences. Australia, Brazil, Costa Rica and India were among the top six countries with the most documents and were selected for further analysis. Costa Rica was the country with the highest percentage of its publications dedicated to the production of antivenoms and venomics. Only a few articles addressed the issues of quality, safety and efficacy of antivenoms, or the role of national regulatory authorities. Thanks to Brunei Email List ® we were able to view the joint publications of the collaborations between countries. The visualization by the co-appearance of terms showed differences in the research carried out.
