RESISTANCE TO ANTI-FUNGAL AGENTS IN Candida albicans: BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE

Résumé 0

"One of the best indicators of the progress of research in a specific topic is the analysis of the production of scientific articles; bibliometrics is a useful discipline to analyze such information in a quantitative way. Infections produced by Candida albicans are an important topic worldwide and, the mortality related to them has increased, particularly in immunocompromised patients. To document the state of the art of research in the topic of ‘Mechanisms of resistance to C. albicans anti-fungal agents’, based on a bibliometric study of the articles published for 16 years (2002-2018), a search for articles that described it in the Scopus database was carried out. The information was filtered by keywords and 79 documents were exported and later analyzed using the software VOSviewer®. The use of bibliometric indicators is a solid tool for the diagnosis of research on the resistance of C. albicans to anti-fungal agents."
