Abstract

Background: This report covers dengue viruses research papers from 2015 to 2024 using the Scopus interdisciplinary online database. The study’s goal is to examine the year-by-year growth of publications, relative growth rate and doubling time, top ten authors’ contributions, and time series analysis, contributions of top ten journals, institutions, countries, and highly cited papers in dengue viruses’ research publications. Aim: This study studies or evaluates dengue viruses’ research trends from 2015 to 2024 to discuss the possibility of employing data from the Scopus database. Between 2015 and 2024, there was an annual rise in dengue viruses’ research articles of 28016 research publications, 474687 citation in research publications. Objectives: To perform a bibliometric analysis of the Global Level Research Output in Dengue Viruses: A Scientometric Analysis. The authors’ study purpose is to look at how scientometric dengue viruses’ research is evolving and to detect any trends in that development. It also intends to discover prior trends in dengue viruses research publications published in scientometrics based on the sample data. Material: This study confirmed that the were contributed in 2020. Wiwanikit, V. is the most prolific author in the field of Dengue Viruses, with 186 (19.23%) research papers in the United States. In terms of publication distribution by country, the United States contributed the most papers (2710), accounting for more than 209351 (28.37%) research publications. The institutions with Fundacao Oswaldo Cruz alone published 887 (17.72%) papers, while the journals of found that Plos Neglected Tropical Diseases is on top of the list with the publication of 1069 (24.17.84%) publications clinching the first position. Result: The time series analysis statistical application in Dengue Viruses research articles is predicted to be around 3291 in 2025 and 3536 in 2030. So, at the time, serious study confirmed that the number of papers on spice research was expanding. The widely cited publication Vos T. et al. (2015) Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 328 illnesses and injuries in 195 countries, 1990-2016: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016, The Lancet, 390(10100)1211-1259. The citation is 5780, and the document type is article. Conclusion: Dengue Viruses consists of the provisions established in to reduce dengue virus transmission, these interventions should focus on locations with high levels of human-vector contact. Insecticide treated curtains and innovative mosquito traps have showed potential in reducing dengue virus infections. Surveillance is another component of dengue prevention, as it provides the necessary information for risk assessment and program direction.
