The Instituto Nacional de Neurología y Neurocirugía "Manuel Velasco Suárez" (INNN) is one of the main institutions in Latin America treating epilepsy; and bibliometric analysis has an increasing role in analyzing the literature, acting as a Google Maps of medical research. We tracked the scientific output in Scopus and the impact of the institution from its foundation to July 2020 in the field of epilepsy. We roughly separated this group by clinical and experimental approach, identifying core journals, type of article, increase with time, and number of citations. A total of 228 papers, from a total of 3,034 produced by the INNN in that period, were found. Additionally, we identified that neurocysticercosis, pharmacology, genetics, and proteins involved in epilepsy were the most investigated topics. Also, there is a sustained growth in the number of papers per year since 1985. The number of authors per paper ranges from one to 15, and neuroscience journals are the preferred target of researchers, with a predilection for "Epilepsy and Behavior".
墨西哥国立神经学与神经外科学研究所（INNN）是拉丁美洲主要的癫痫治疗机构之一；而文献计量分析在分析文献方面发挥着越来越重要的作用，它就像是医学研究的谷歌地图。我们在 Scopus 中追踪了该机构从成立到 2020 年 7 月在癫痫领域的科学产出及其影响力。我们大致按照临床和实验方法对该组数据进行了划分，确定了核心期刊、文章类型、随时间的增长以及引用次数。共发现了 228 篇论文，这是 INNN 在该时期总共发表的 3034 篇论文中的一部分。此外，我们发现神经囊尾蚴病、药理学、遗传学以及与癫痫相关的蛋白质是研究最多的课题。此外，自 1985 年以来，每年发表的论文数量呈持续增长趋势。每篇论文的作者人数从 1 到 15 不等，神经科学期刊是研究人员的首选目标，他们偏爱《癫痫与行为》。
