Objective: This research aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of publications related to sarcopenic dysphagia.
Methods: Publications on sarcopenic dysphagia were scanned from the Web of Science database. Data; publication years, analysis of publication numbers according to the top ten countries, country citation numbers, institutions where publications were made, distribution of publications by journal, network analysis according to researcher, and number of citations were analyzed in terms of keywords. The VOSviewer program was used to analyze the data.
Results: A total of 372 publications were accessed from the Web of Science database. As a result of the review, it was seen that 2022 was the year with the most publications. Japanese researchers have been pioneers in the number of publications and citations. The researcher who contributed the most to the subject was Hidetaka Wakabayashi. The most cited publication is Ichiro Fujishima et al. there was a study conducted by. The keywords sarcopenia and dysphagia were used most frequently in the publications.
Conclusion: The study provides valuable information regarding research trends and future research directions.sciences.
