A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS AND VISUALISATION OF RESEARCH TRENDS IN COVID AND DIABETICS

Author: Raj Kumar Singh

Category: Radio Astronomy

Abstract:

COVID19 is a pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2. Thus this bibliometric analysis of COVID and diabetics had been conducted to understand the active authors, organizations, journals, and countries involved . All articles related to diabeticsand COVID, published in 2020, from “Scopus” were analyzed using the VOS viewer to develop analysis tables and visualization maps.This article had set the objective to consolidate the literature regarding diabetics and COVIDand also to find out the trends related to the same.The most productive authors areChen J and Li J, having the highest number of citations and average citations. Li J is the most active author, who published the highest number of co-authorship linkages in this domain. The most productive research organization engaged in the research of COVID and diabetics is the Department of Endocrinology, Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research. Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviewsis the most active journals with the highest citation, linkages, and average citation. Cell Metabolismis the journal with the highest average citation. The most productive research organization engaged in the research of COVID and diabetics is the Department of Endocrinology, Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research

Keywords: : COVID, Diabetics, Bibliometric analysis, VOS viewer, Pandemic

Introduction

Coronavirus disease19 (COVID19) is a pandemic and caused by SARS COV2.COVID19 was first reported in Wuhan, China, and its spread across the world. COVID19 had reported with a comparatively lower mortality rate but is capable of super spreading and social spreading in a short period. Only Social distancing and selfhygiene can avoid this pandemic at this stage. Immunity is very important to control the super spread of the virus. Personal hygiene should include hand washing, use of masks, sanitizer, gloves, and maintaining social distancing. COVID19 is disastrous with people having comorbidities. A higher degree of research is needed to control the pandemic.Hygiene is an important social determinant of health during the pandemic. There is a huge challenge faced in solid waste disposal during the pandemic. Health workers play a great role in stopping the pandemic. Motivations, overwork, risk of infection, job pressure, lack of rotation are the serious problems faced by health care workers in the field. Till now the treatments involve drug repurposing and we are miles away from an effective vaccine. Remdesivir, Favipiravir, Chloroquine, and Lopinavir/Ritonavir have commonly used drugs for treating COVID19 patients across the world.This article is arranged in five sections. The first section is the introduction, followed by the discussion of the methodology by which the research was conducted. The third section deals with results and discussion. The fourth section deals with the conclusion.
