A Scientometric Analysis and Visualization on Beta Thalassemia Research at Global Perspectives

Abstract

This study conducted a scientometric review on beta thalassemia research using HistCite, BibExcel, and VOS viewer from 2000 to 2019. A total of 10,002 articles were downloaded from the Web of Science core collection database. The study used several quantitative scientometric indicators to measure the performance of the global beta thalassemia research output. The purpose of this review study is to analyze and visualize the state-of-the-art on beta thalassemia in a systematic way. The research findings include research areas, types of documents, authors, journals, institutions, and countries, and how these are linked within the existing body of literature on beta thalassemia. The result reveals that organizations such as Mahidol University and the University of Athens have published numerous articles encouraged by specific R&D funding schemes and made a significant contribution to the development of beta thalassemia research.
