BACKGROUND: The five BRICS (Brazil, Russian, Indian, China, and South Africa) countries bear 49% of the world's tuberculosis (TB) burden and they are committed to ending tuberculosis. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this paper is to map the scientific landscape related to TB research in BRICS countries. METHODS: Were combined bibliometrics and social network analysis techniques to map the scientific publications related to TB produced by the BRICS. Was made a descriptive statistical data covering the full period of analysis (1993-2016) and the research networks were made for 2007-2016 (8,366 records). The bubble charts were generated by VantagePoint and the networks by the Gephi 0.9.1 software (Gephi Consortium 2010) from co-occurrence matrices produced in VantagePoint. The Fruchterman-Reingold algorithm provided the networks' layout. FINDINGS: During the period 1993-2016, there were 38,315 peer-reviewed, among them, there were 11,018 (28.7%) articles related by one or more authors in a BRICS: India 38.7%; China 23.8%; South Africa 21.1%; Brazil 13.0%; and Russia 4.5% (The total was greater than 100% because our criterion was all papers with at least one author in a BRICS). Among the BRICS, there was greater interaction between India and South Africa and organisations in India and China had the highest productivity; however, South African organisations had more interaction with countries outside the BRICS. Publications by and about BRICS generally covered all research areas, especially those in India and China covered all research areas, although Brazil and South Africa prioritised infectious diseases, microbiology, and the respiratory system. MAIN CONCLUSIONS: An overview of BRICS scientific publications and interactions highlighted the necessity to develop a BRICS TB research plan to increase efforts and funding to ensure that basic science research successfully translates into products and policies to help end the TB epidemic.
背景:金砖五国(巴西、俄罗斯、印度、中国和南非)承担了全球 49%的结核病(TB)负担,它们致力于终结结核病。
目的:本文旨在绘制金砖国家结核病研究的科学图谱。
方法:我们结合了文献计量学和社会网络分析技术,绘制了金砖国家的结核病研究相关的科学出版物图谱。我们对整个分析期间(1993-2016 年)进行了描述性统计数据,对 2007-2016 年的研究网络进行了绘制(8366 条记录)。气泡图由 VantagePoint 生成,网络由 Gephi 0.9.1 软件(Gephi 联盟 2010 年)从 VantagePoint 生成的共现矩阵生成。Fruchterman-Reingold 算法提供了网络的布局。
发现:在 1993-2016 年期间,有 38315 篇同行评议论文,其中有 11018 篇(28.7%)是由一个或多个金砖国家的作者共同撰写的:印度 38.7%;中国 23.8%;南非 21.1%;巴西 13.0%;俄罗斯 4.5%(总数超过 100%,因为我们的标准是所有至少有一位作者来自金砖国家的论文)。在金砖国家中,印度和南非之间的互动较多,而印度和中国的组织的生产力较高;然而,南非的组织与金砖国家以外的国家的互动更多。金砖国家的出版物涵盖了所有研究领域,特别是印度和中国的出版物涵盖了所有研究领域,尽管巴西和南非侧重于传染病、微生物学和呼吸系统。
主要结论:对金砖国家科学出版物和互动的概述突出表明,需要制定金砖国家结核病研究计划,以增加努力和资金,确保基础科学研究成功转化为产品和政策,以帮助终结结核病流行。
