To date, little effort has been devoted to summarizing worldwide research trends in sunscreen publications. The present study aimed to quantitatively analyze research trends in sunscreen publications over the past period from 2010 to 2020.
The required bibliometric information was extracted and downloaded from the Scopus database. Documents including the keywords "Sunscreen" and "Sunscreens" were extracted from the database. A total of 1466 articles were retrieved from the database as on May 14, 2021. Data analysis and visualization were performed through RStudio. The bibliometrix package was accessed through the RStudio application to compute and process the bibliotec file.
Over the last decade (2010-2020), marked progress has been made in the area of sunscreens research. The overall increase in publications and citations reflects a growing research interest in the sunscreens field. The United States was the most prolific organization productive country with ( = 861) published documents, followed by Brazil ( = 273), Australia ( = 220), and France ( = 220). The most active institution was the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro with publications ( = 30). was the leading journal in the sunscreen literature with a total of ( = 55) documents.
The main strength of the study is the use of the bibliometric analysis method and visualization of data to review the entire literature on sunscreens. The United States, Brazil, the United Kingdom, Australia, France, and China were active in most of the research parameters included in the study. These findings serve as a guide and road map for scholars in the field. This research can also be beneficial to academics, policymakers, and educational use.
迄今为止，在总结全球防晒产品相关出版物的研究趋势方面投入的精力较少。本研究旨在定量分析2010年至2020年过去这段时间内防晒产品出版物的研究趋势。
所需的文献计量信息从Scopus数据库中提取并下载。从该数据库中提取包含关键词“Sunscreen”和“Sunscreens”的文献。截至2021年5月14日，共从该数据库中检索到1466篇文章。通过RStudio进行数据分析和可视化。通过RStudio应用程序访问bibliometrix包来计算和处理文献文件。
在过去十年（2010 - 2020年）中，防晒产品研究领域取得了显著进展。出版物和引用次数的总体增加反映了对防晒产品领域的研究兴趣日益浓厚。美国是产出文献最多的国家（ = 861篇），其次是巴西（ = 273篇）、澳大利亚（ = 220篇）和法国（ = 220篇）。最活跃的机构是里约热内卢联邦大学，发表了（ = 30篇）文献。 是防晒产品文献方面的领先期刊，共有（ = 55篇）文献。
本研究的主要优势在于使用文献计量分析方法和数据可视化来回顾关于防晒产品的全部文献。美国、巴西、英国、澳大利亚、法国和中国在该研究涵盖的大多数研究参数方面都很活跃。这些发现为该领域的学者提供了指导和路线图。这项研究对学术界、政策制定者和教育用途也可能有益。
