“…None of the articles that ranked among the five most cited in the present review received over 15 citations since they were published, a very small number, and that reflects that these publications did not obtain significant international visibility. Compared to the five most cited articles in the field of anesthesiology, the total number of citations of these ranged from 466 to 699 [ 33 ]. None had postoperative pain as their main theme, and all were developed in developed countries.…”

“…None had postoperative pain as their main theme, and all were developed in developed countries. The article focusing on postsurgical pain, which had the highest number of citations, reached only 12th place and was also carried out in a developed country and did not specifically addressed the elderly population [ 33 ]. The data obtained in these two bibliometric reviews expose the problem that postoperative pain in elderly patients in developing countries is far from being discussed by the global scientific community based on robust epidemiological data.…”

“…Several possible reasons and barriers could be suggested: a small number of indexed journals of anesthesiology and pain in these regions might be one. Among the journals focused on anesthesia that appear among the most cited, those that originate in developing countries did not reach citation averages greater than 3, while those with the highest averages exceed 20 [ 33 ]. Another possibility is the lack of quality in publications that allow them to achieve merit for publication in specific and high impact journals; the lack of encouragement for researchers from these countries to submit articles in high impact journals.…”

“…Developing countries, according to a bibliometric study, had a small contribution to publications on anesthesia topics. Data referring specifically to postoperative pain or in special populations are not available to date [ 33 ].…”

Postoperative pain (POP) remains a major challenge for surgeons and anesthesiologists worldwide, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Elderly patients are at higher risk for undertreatment of pain. Despite that, there is a paucity of papers addressing POP among this population in developing countries. This study aimed to provide a bibliometric analysis of the literature concerning postoperative pain in elderly patients from low- and middle-income countries. It was performed an extensive search of papers on this subject through the Web of Science and Scopus database using a series of uniterms and, including publications from 2001 to 2021. Publication quality was assessed by using total citation frequency, average citations per item and other citation indexes. Citation indexes were low, with the highest reaching 15 citations. In conclusion, few studies of postoperative pain in the elderly in countries with medium and low income, indicating a need that has not yet been met for this population and in these areas of the world. The published studies were not specifically aimed at the elderly, had limited impact, low international visibility. They were not epidemiological studies and are not robust, weakening knowledge and decision-making towards policies directed at this vulnerable population.

“…Specifically, in the present bibliometric study, we did not use the Pearson’s correlation method because our variable of interests did not meet normality assumption. A number of published bibliometric reports used the Spearman’s correlation coefficient to measure the strength of relationship between variables of interest [ 17 , 18 ].…”

Scientometrics enables scholars to assess and visualize emerging research trends and hot-spots in the scientific literature from a quantitative standpoint. In the last decades, Africa has nearly doubled its absolute count of scholarly output, even though its share in global knowledge production has dramatically decreased. The still-ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has profoundly impacted the way scholarly research is conducted, published, and disseminated. However, the COVID-19-related research focus, the scientific productivity, and the research collaborative network of African researchers during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic remain to be elucidated. This study aimed to clarify the COVID-19 research patterns among African researchers and estimate the strength of collaborations and partnerships between African researchers and scholars from the rest of the world during the COVID-19 pandemic, collecting data from electronic scholarly databases such as Web of Science (WoS), PubMed/MEDLINE and African Journals OnLine (AJOL), the largest and prominent platform of African-published scholarly journals. We found that COVID-19-related collaboration patterns varied among African regions. For instance, most of the scholarly partnerships occurred with formerly colonial countries (such as European or North-American countries). In other cases, scholarly ties of North African countries were above all with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In terms of number of publications, South Africa and Egypt were among the most productive countries. Bibliometrics and, in particular, scientometrics can help scholars identify research areas of particular interest, as well as emerging topics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. With a specific focus on the still-ongoing viral outbreak, they can assist decision- and policy-makers in allocating funding and economic-financial, logistic, organizational, and human resources, based on the specific gaps and needs of a given country or research area.
