“…On 16 December 2023, we conducted a systematic search in the Web of Science database for publications related to disability in Arab countries from inception. The Web of Science database is a widely citation database for calculating bibliometric statistics and has been commonly utilised in bibliometric studies (e.g., Zyoud et al, 2017;González-Serrano et al, 2019;Yang et al, 2021).…”

This study utilised a bibliometric approach to examine research patterns related to disability that have been conducted in Arab countries. A systematic search was conducted using two search strings encompassing “Arab countries” and “disability” in the titles of publications indexed in the Web of Science database. Overall trends, the most prominent authors based on the number of publications and citations, and maps representing co-authorship, country, and institution clusters were analysed. A total of 1205 publications from 1974 to 2023 were included for analysis, revealing an increasing number of publications over the years, particularly in the last 20 years. Notably, half of the publications were published in the last 6 years. Among the 22 Arab countries, 5 contributed to 64% of all the publications, with Saudi Arabia emerging as the most prolific country. Conversely, Comoros, Djibouti, and Mauritania did not have any publications in the dataset. Multiple sclerosis was the most extensively studied disability, accounting for 18.3% of the publications. Active research collaborations were observed both within and outside the Arab region. The citation rates were comparable to other research areas in Arab countries, with the most highly cited publication dating back to 1983. Our findings indicate that there is a need for more disability research in the region, especially in under-researched countries and disabilities.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a prevalent neurological disease with a global impact on patients' lives. Our study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of research published in the field of pharmacology over the past decade. We retrieved original articles on MS from pharmacology journals in the last ten years through the Scopus database. The collected data underwent analysis using VOSViewer software, examining relationships between studies based on parameters such as citation, authorship, and organizations. In our country-based analysis, the United States emerged with the highest document count, totaling 350, followed by Germany with 210 documents. Claudio Viegas holds the top position with four publications in the last decade. The most prolific organization identified was associated with the Biogen-Cambridge-MA-United States group. However, Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand, specifically the Department of Psychiatry, received the most citations. The most cited document was "Therapeutic Advances in Neurological Disorders," while the study with the highest citations was Ferreria-Vieira et al.'s (2016) work published in Current Neuropharmacology. Research efforts on MS treatment are evidently growing, with diverse research groups contributing worldwide. We anticipate that our study will provide valuable guidance to researchers in the field by shedding light on significant research and their interconnections in recent years.

This study is about scientific analysis of Multiple Sclerosis rehabilitation. For this purpose, scientific mapping method was used in the analysis of publications. Scientific studies published in the Web of Science (WoS) database on rehabilitation in patients with multiple sclerosis between 1986-2021 were analyzed by bibliometric analysis method. VOSviewer package program was used to analyze the data. The data were analyzed in terms of variables such as the author of the publications, countries, active journal, citations, institutions, keywords. As a result of the study, regarding the publications on multiple sclerosis and its rehabilitation; the highest number of studies were published between 2018-2021, with the USA in the first place in this regard; Researchers affiliated with the University of Alabama Birmingham have the most publications on this subject; most publications were published in the journal Disability and Rehabilitation; the researcher who contributed the most to the subject is Robert W. Motl; It was seen that the most cited publication on multiple sclerosis belongs to Kurtzke JF. From Turkey, Idiman E. is at the forefront of the names that contribute to this field. As a result of the findings, it has been observed that the publications on multiple sclerosis and its rehabilitation have increased in recent years. This study can provide researchers with useful information about research directions and limitations, and co-authorship of publications. Focus on research base and collaborations should be increased for high quality multiple sclerosis rehabilitation studies.
