    INDICADORES BIBLIOMÉTRICOS SOBRE O TEMA “DENGUE” E “DENGUE INFANTIL” NA BASE SCOPUS
    (2021-10-20) Eliane Cristina Casimiro Alves Dias
    Dengue is the most important arbovirus in the world and one of the main health challenges in Brazil. The scenario of hyperendemicity, with epidemics of great magnitude and an increase in severe forms of the disease has also led to an increase in cases in special groups, such as children in whom the clinical presentation of the disease is nonspecific and can present the severe form of dengue as the first manifestation without the foreshadowings of warning signs, as in adults. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work is to provide an overview of the main bibliometric indicators on the themes “dengue” and “children's dengue”. METHODS: A bibliometric search was carried out in the Scopus database, in July 2020, using the themes “dengue” and “children's dengue” to identify the main authors, institutions, journals, languages used and areas that most publish on the topic. RESULTS: The worldwide growth rate in the number of publications on the topic "dengue" and "infantile dengue" show, on average, respectively 12.9% and 11.6% of growth per year, therefore higher than the average growth of articles in the Scopus database, which was 5.3% per year. The United States was the country with the highest number of publications on the “dengue” theme, followed by India and Brazil. In terms of “dengue for children”, the United States remained in the ranking of publications, followed by India, Thailand and then Brazil, where Fiocruz is the main publication institution for “dengue” and children's dengue”, followed by USP, UFRJ and UFMG. In the world, Brazilian and US institutions are among the main institutions with the most publications on the topic of “dengue” and “children's dengue”, followed by European institutions. The areas that most studied the subject are “medicine”, “immunology and microbiology” and “biochemistry and genetics”. It was also possible to know the main Brazilian and world authors, as well as the periodicals in which Brazilians and other authors publish the most on the subject. CONCLUSIONS: It can be concluded that the theme “dengue” and “infantile dengue” have great relevance in scientific research, having seen the impact on public health in Brazil and in the world and represent a significant portion of morbidity and mortality in the pediatric age group nowadays.
