description | Introduction and Methodology: The authors used bibliometric analysis and visualization tools to analyze 950 documents on monkeypox with a focus on annual publication productivity, most productive and impactful source titles, countries, most productive institutions, and authors, and their contribution to the subject areas. Results and Conclusion: The findings reveal that the most productive year of publication was 2003 which included 62 publications with the majority published in Emerging Infectious Diseases (35 papers) and Journal of Virology (32 papers) and Science (60.6), and Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Reports (60.44) achieved the highest citation impact per paper. USA (55.37% share), UK (6.63% share), and Germany (6.11% share) are the most productive countries, and Switzerland (47.93 and 1.84), Canada (46.57 and 1.79), and Belgium (37.32 and 1.43) are the most impactful countries. The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, USA (145 papers) and National Institutes of Health, USA (64 papers) emerged as the most productive, and the University of California, Los Angeles, USA (84.15 and 3.23) and Viral and Rickettsial Zoonoses Br., USA (66.9 and 2.57) as the most impactful organizations. I.K. Damon (68 papers) and M.G. Reynolds (51 papers) emerged as the most prolific authors, and Esposito, J.J. (60.0 and 2.30) and Jezek, Z. (56.89 and 2.18) as the most impactful authors. In the subject category type, the most prominent subject fields were Medicine (60.95% share) and Immunology & Microbiology (39.16% share). The prominent keywords in the papers were “monkeypox” (570 times), “monkeypox virus” (411 times), “poxviridae infections” (332 times), “small pox” (266 times), “orthopox virus” (248 times), “vaccinia virus” (203 times), and “disease outbreaks” (179 times). |
