To describe the scientific output on medicinal plants published between 2000 and 2019 with at least one author with Peruvian affiliation.
A bibliometric study was carried out by conducting a systematic search in the Scopus database, from which original articles or short communications on medicinal plants that had at least one author with Peruvian institutional affiliation were selected. The characteristics of the publications, institutions, countries and authors who participated in this research are described. The ratio of international collaboration, the transience index, and the institutional and co-authorship collaboration networks were calculated.
A total of 200 original articles published in 83 journals were included. The quantity of articles showed an increasing, though irregular trend during the studied period. The most productive institution was the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, and the journal in which most of the articles were published was the Journal of Ethnopharmacology. Authorship and institutional collaboration networks showed the influence of international collaboration in these publications (53.0%).
Peruvian scientific output on medicinal plants shows an increasing trend, observed mainly in academic university settings. The articles are published on high-impact journals, due in part to the high level of international cooperation.
描述 2000 年至 2019 年间至少有一位秘鲁籍作者的药用植物科学产出。
通过在 Scopus 数据库中进行系统检索,开展了一项文献计量研究,从中选择了至少有一位秘鲁机构附属作者的关于药用植物的原始文章或短通讯。描述了出版物、机构、国家和参与这项研究的作者的特征。计算了国际合作比例、瞬态指数以及机构和合著者合作网络。
共纳入 83 种期刊发表的 200 篇原始文章。在研究期间,文章数量呈上升趋势,但不规则。最具生产力的机构是圣马尔科斯国立大学,发表文章最多的期刊是《民族药理学杂志》。作者和机构合作网络显示了这些出版物中国际合作的影响力(53.0%)。
秘鲁药用植物的科学产出呈上升趋势,主要在学术大学环境中观察到。这些文章发表在高影响力的期刊上,部分原因是国际合作水平较高。
