OBJECTIVES: Coronavirus illness (COVID-19) has been found to alter infected people's sense of smell and taste. However, the pathobiology of this virus is not yet known. Therefore, it is critical to investigate the influence of COVID-19 infection on olfactory and gustatory processes. Therefore, we use bibliometric analysis on COVID-19 and olfactory and/or gustatory dysfunction publications to provide studies perspective. METHODS: A bibliometric literature search was performed in the Scopus database. The number and type of publications, countries for publications, institutional sources for publications, journals for publications, citation patterns, and funding agencies were analyzed using Microsoft Excel or VOSviewer. In addition, the VOSviewer 1.6.17 software was used to analyze and visualize hotspots and collaboration patterns between countries. RESULTS: Scopus has published 187 088 documents for COVID-19 in all study fields at the time of data collection (July 26, 2021). A total of 1740 documents related to olfactory and/or gustatory dysfunction were recovered. The countries most relevant by the number of publications were the United States (n = 362, 20.80%), Italy (n = 255, 14.66%), and the United Kingdom (n = 173, 9.94%). By analyzing the terms in the titles and abstracts, we identified 2 clusters related to olfactory and/or gustatory dysfunction research, which are "diagnosis and test methods" and "prognosis and complications of the disease." CONCLUSIONS: This is the first bibliometric analysis of publications related to COVID-19 and olfactory and/or gustatory dysfunction. This study provides academics and researchers with useful information on the publishing patterns of the most influential publications on COVID-19 and olfactory and/or gustatory dysfunction. Olfactory and/or gustatory dysfunction as indices of suspicion for the empirical diagnosis of coronavirus infection is a new hotspot in this field.
目的:冠状病毒病(COVID-19)已被发现改变了感染者的嗅觉和味觉。然而,这种病毒的发病机制尚不清楚。因此,研究 COVID-19 感染对嗅觉和味觉过程的影响至关重要。因此,我们使用文献计量分析方法对 COVID-19 与嗅觉和/或味觉障碍相关出版物进行分析,以提供研究视角。
方法:在 Scopus 数据库中进行了文献计量学检索。使用 Microsoft Excel 或 VOSviewer 分析出版物的数量和类型、出版物的国家、出版物的机构来源、出版物的期刊、引文模式和资助机构。此外,还使用 VOSviewer 1.6.17 软件分析和可视化国家之间的热点和合作模式。
结果:在数据收集(2021 年 7 月 26 日)时,Scopus 在所有研究领域共发表了 187088 篇关于 COVID-19 的文献。共检索到与嗅觉和/或味觉障碍相关的 1740 篇文献。按出版物数量排名,最重要的国家是美国(n=362,20.80%)、意大利(n=255,14.66%)和英国(n=173,9.94%)。通过分析标题和摘要中的术语,我们确定了与嗅觉和/或味觉障碍研究相关的 2 个聚类,分别是“诊断和测试方法”和“疾病的预后和并发症”。
结论:这是对 COVID-19 与嗅觉和/或味觉障碍相关出版物的首次文献计量分析。本研究为学者和研究人员提供了有关 COVID-19 和嗅觉和/或味觉障碍最具影响力出版物出版模式的有用信息。嗅觉和/或味觉障碍作为冠状病毒感染经验诊断的可疑指标是该领域的一个新热点。
