Özet
Aim: To carry out an in-depth bibliometric analysis of scoliosis literature. Material and methods: This study used the Web of Science database to identify relevant articles for analysis. The literature search used the keyword ?scolio*? and focused on the period between 1980-2019. Bibliometric network visualizations and mapping of specific results were done using VOSviewer software. Results: The literature search yielded 9706 publications on scoliosis between 1980 and 2019. Of these, 6975 (71.9%) journal articles were included in the bibliometric summary. Orthopedics was the most common area of research (4581 articles, 65.67%), and the United States of America (USA) exhibited the highest publication productivity (2327 articles, 33.36%). Nanjing University in China had the highest number of publications among institutions (n=219, 3.13% of the total literature), and there were a total of 60130 citations in 6975 articles. Fifty-five articles had a minimum of 100 citations, and the journal with the highest number of publications was ?Spine? (number of article: 1628, 23.3%). Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis may be regarded as a summary and evaluation of global scientific output on scoliosis and can, therefore, be used a guide for researchers, clinicians and students. Furthermore, the keyword analysis can aid professionals in the field when planning new studies.
