Gynecological Cancer Research in India: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Gynecological cancer originating in the female reproductive tract is one of the most common cancers among women, and its incidence is increasing every year in India. This results in high mortality, poor survival outcomes, and psychological effects. Several theoretical and empirical investigations examined gynecological cancer and its varied influences. However, no bibliometric attempts were performed to screen these publications to comprehend the most recent developments and trends in gynecological cancer research in India. Thus, this study aimed to examine the recent development of gynecological cancer research using bibliometric analysis of 3378 research articles collected from the Web of Science database from 2003 to 2022. The study used the Bibliometrix and VOSviewer software to inspect the performance and the science mapping analysis. The performance analysis findings indicate an increase in publication trends after 2008 in India. In scientific production, India collaborated with 116 countries worldwide. The most productive journal, author, and institution are Plos One, Rengaswamy Sankaranarayanan, and All India Institute of Medical Sciences, respectively. By using keywords, intellectual structure, and conceptual structure, the analysis indicates that future studies could focus on cervical carcinoma, ovarian cancer, human papillomavirus, and epithelial ovarian cancer. In light of the overall findings, it is recommended that academicians and practitioners interested in gynecological cancer-based research deliver an overview of the field by providing readers with essential papers, authors, universities, concepts, and sources. These outcomes will also help scholars in gaining a better understanding of current developments, trends, and issues in gynecological cancer research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
