Visualization of Research Publications on Kappa Virus Using R Software: Seventy-one years appraisal of scientometrics review

Abstract

Introduction: This article provides scientific research analysis and representation of the worldwide research on kappa viruses. However, the issue is that the lengthiest study in the field of the Kappa virus has taken place. The study intends to monitor the current condition of kappa virus research by utilising network analysis and viewing of publications on kappa virus. Methods:During the period from 1950 to July 2021, 10624 releases were retrieved from the Scopus database. For data analysis, R statistical software and MS-Excel applications are utilised. Different findings are derived from the yearly scientific production, Type of Documents, country corresponding production, The Three-field Plot: Analysis of the Left Sources-Middle Authors and the Funding Sponsor, and Co-citation of the Network of Sources Analysis. Results: The highest percentage (86.90%) of Kappa Virus publications are articles. USA (3148) and China (1575) are the most publication of countries and authors per document is 4.14. The findings reveal that China and the United States are at the heart of Kappa virus research networks at each of the three tiers. Conclusion: The study shows how governments, the public sector, and private sectors, such as the pharmaceutical industry, can use scientific analysis to gain insights into the holistic trends of research and players' networks in this field, leading to strengthened research and development strategies programmes. In addition, this method may be used for future policy planning, identifying, and executing cooperation and research exchange possibilities as a means of visualisation and decision assistance. This procedure should apply directly to other areas.
