ORTIZ NUNEZ, Roelvis y STABLE RODRIGUEZ, Yudayly. Analysis of international scientific production about treatments against COVID-19. Rev. cuba. inf. cienc. salud [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.2 Epub 01-Abr-2021. ISSN 2307-2113.
The present work aimed to characterize the scientific production on treatments against COVID-19 registered in the SCOPUS database in the period 2019 - June 2020. A bibliometric study was carried out in 842 articles on treatments against COVID-19 available in the SCOPUS database, as well as an analysis of the productivity of authors, countries, institutions, journals, collaboration networks and topics. In scientific production the English language predominated, multiple authorship, publication in first quartile journals in Scimago and a high index of national scientific collaboration was registered. The analysis of co-occurrence of terms yielded three large thematic groups, the main emerging focuses of research on treatments against COVID-19, related to the characterization of the main symptoms of the disease, the proposed treatments and the clinical results of treatments in women and adults with comorbidity. The international scientific production on treatments against COVID-19 shows a sustained growth rate in response to the search for solutions to reduce the fatality rates from SARS-CoV-2. It is characterized by the predominance of national scientific collaboration, publication in high-impact journals with great international visibility. International collaboration between researchers specialized in treatments against the disease should be strengthened to achieve higher quality results.
