Bibliometric analyses of COVID-19 research

Applications for the bibliometric Co-occurrence analysis:

Offers an overview of:
- the structure of topics investigated,
- the relative focus, as measured by the number of occurrences, shown as the size of nodes.
- The different colors indicate different general research foci.
Identifying the most relevant search terms.
- The keywords in the map are those commonly used by article authors, with differences across the research areas. Identifying the most relevant terms can help narrow the search to the most relevant articles.

To access the interactive map, you need to open the graph in VosViewer, which allows you to search the map, see what keywords are connected, and the strength of the connection between each node in the graph diagram.

Insights and trends

Some insights from the weekly bibliometric keyword co-occurrence analyses conducted since March 2020 include that there has been a very rapid increase in COVID-19 literature. From 992 on March 16th, when we initiated this project, to over 50 000 now. Below we refer to some insights and trends. For more details, please read the individual blog posts.

Early in the pandemic, the research focus, based on 1323 publications on March 23rd, was on topics within “Health and pandemic management,” “The disease and its pathophysiology,” “Clinical epidemiology of the disease,” and “Treatment of the disease”. Please see the preprint for a more detailed description

About a month later, on April 20th, the number of publications had increased with 395%; to 5228. Moreover, the research landscape had changed somewhat. The topics studied can be described as 1) «A global virus pandemic» including topics within “preventive epidemiology” and “care management.” 2) “Disease epidemiology,” 3) “Pathophysiology and origin,” including topics within “viral biology” and “drug treatment”, 4) “Clinical epidemiology”, and 5) a fifth cluster includes topics on mental health and attitudes. The topic of mental health starts to emerge as a research focus within the COVID-19 pandemic research. During March and April, several countries have introduced strict social distancing measures to reduce the spread of the covid-19 virus. New research focuses on how the pandemic affects people’s mental health and feelings of isolation and loneliness. For more details, click here

On July 23rd, the focus of the most recent literature was on 1) Public health strategies, treatment, and the global impact of COVID-19, 2) the role of existing drugs and vaccines in the current pandemic, 3) demographics and risk factors, 4) literature concentrated on understanding the nature of the virus, and 5) COVID-19 and mental health.

by Njal | Feb 17, 2021 | CoOccurrence

In this post, we present the current focus of the COVID-19 literature, based on publications registered in PubMed as published during January 2021. During this month, there were 9861 publications, and 1239 keywords occurred in five or more manuscripts. We used two resolutions this month, both 1, and 1.5. The keywords divided into 6 and 12 clusters respectively. To create the map, we used the LinLog method.

In the table below, we have listed the 15 most central keywords in each cluster in the higher resolution map.

The topic in each cluster seems to be:

Cluster 1: Health care delivery

Cluster 2: Virus genetics

Cluster 3: Mental health issues

Cluster 4: Health care delivery

Cluster 5: Public health

Keyword Co-Occurrence Network Graphs comparing COVID-19 research focus in the very early stages (up to March 23rd, 2020) to the focus in August 2020.

by Ingunn Olea Lund | Sep 23, 2020 | CoOccurrence

In this post, we compare the focus of the COVID-19 literature published in the very early stages of the pandemic (up to March 23rd) to the focus of literature published during August 2020.

The first graph below is based on the literature based on the Corpus downloaded from PubMed 23rd March. The literature consisted of 1323 publications, of which there were 225 keywords that occurred in three or more manuscripts. These divided into four clusters, that are described in this preprint

The second graph below is based on COVID-19 literature published during August 2020. The literature consisted of 10901 publications, of which there were 1179 keywords that occurred in 5 or more manuscripts. The keywords divided into five main clusters. To create the map, we used the LinLog method. The minimum cluster size was set to 15. We provide a brief description of the clusters from the August COVID-19 litterature: Within cluster 1 (red), the “Pandemic of viral pneumonia; public health and world spread”, we found topics relating to “Public health concerns” “health personnel, education and behavior”, “Guidelines and health care”, and “vulnerabilities in health care”. Cluster 2 (green), “Treatment of COVID-19”, include topics relating to “Epidemiology of virus transmission” “Antiviral agents and vaccines”, “Cancer and chemotherapy”, “Angiotensin and diabetes” and “Antibodies and passive immunization” Central themes in cluster 3 (blue), “Epidemiology of the pandemic and disease”, are “Respiratory illness and care”, “Risk factors and mortality”, “Clinical investigation and diagnosis” and “Population epidemiology”. Central themes in cluster 4 (yellow), “Surveys of disease and mental health”, are topics relating to “Population surveys and anxieties” and “Health care and migration”. Cluster 5 (purple), is dominated by one single theme, namely topics relating to “Lab-work and diagnostics”; which is also what we labeled this cluster.

When inspecting and comparing the network graphs illustrating the COVID-19 literature published during August and one published during the early phase (January 1^st – March 23^rd, 2020), we notice some consistent themes, and some emerging themes. Much of what was being covered during the early phase is still in focus. For instance, the topics from the “health and pandemic management” cluster from the early phase is reflected in the topics covered in the “Pandemic of viral pneumonia; public health and world spread” cluster in the August literature network graph. Early in the pandemic, there was not however, a focus on mental health issues. This has become an additional focus later in the pandemic, and is evident in the “Surveys of disease and mental health” in the August literature network graph. These are just some examples of insights that can be gained from comparing network graphs from different time periods.

Figure 1: The research focus in the very early Covid-19 literature

Figure 1 Notes: Red cluster: Health and pandemic management; Green cluster: The disease and its pathophysiology; Blue cluster: Clinical epidemiology of the disease; Yellow cluster: Treatment of the disease.

Figure 2 (below): The research focus in a later stage of the Covid-19 literature

Figure 2 notes: Red cluster: Pandemic of viral pneumonia; public health and world spread; Green cluster: Treatment of COVID-19; Blue cluster: Epidemiology of the pandemic and disease; Yellow cluster: Surveys of disease and mental health; Purple cluster: Lab-work and diagnostics.

Tables of most central keywords in each cluster; in literature published during the early phase of the pandemic, and literature published during August.

The tables below provide an overview of the most central keywords in each cluster in the two time-periods. We extracted more keywords from the second time period as there was substantially more literature published in August alone, than the first 12 weeks of 2020, which the first map is based on. (Centrality measure used is weighted degree centrality)

Keyword Co-Occurrence Network Graph of the current focus of the COVID-19 literature

by Ingunn Olea Lund | Jul 23, 2020 | CoOccurrence

In this week’s update, we are presenting something slightly different; the current focus of the COVID-19 literature, based on publications registered in PubMed as published in the past 3 weeks (21 days). This resulted in 6001 publications. There were 677 keywords that occurred in five or more manuscripts. These divided into five main clusters. To create the map, we used the LinLog method. The minimum cluster size was set to 15.

Cluster 1 (red) covers literature focusing on Public health strategies, treatment, and the global impact of COVID-19.
Cluster 2 (green) includes literature on the role of existing drugs and vaccines in the current pandemic.
Cluster 3 (blue) focuses on demographics and risk factors.
Cluster 4 (yellow) covers literature concentrated on understanding the nature of the virus.
Cluster 5 (Purple) addresses the association between COVID-19 and mental health.

We find it interesting that there does not seem to be a big shift in publication focus from earlier in the pandemic; however, expect this to change as more time has elapsed, allowing for other types of studies to mature and be ready for publication, especially on topics relating to social consequences of the pandemic.

Keyword Co-Occurrence Network Graph for the Overall Research Field on COVID-19 up to May 18th, 2020.

by Ingunn Olea Lund | May 18, 2020 | CoOccurrence

Corpus downloaded from PubMed 18th May: 13103 publications. There were 1861 keywords that occurred in three or more manuscripts. These divided into four main clusters.

This week’s rapport strengthens our observation from last couple of weeks that the clusters and topics seem to vary less, signifying that cluster may be more robust. This is true even if cluster 1 and 2 have changed places. Maybe this switch could imply that research and publication is switching more to how to managing the disease, than mainly be focused on the understanding of the phenomenon. In cluster 3 the term(s) (hydroxyl)chloroquine is rising on the list. Last week there was a fifth cluster that we called “clinical issues”, but the terms included in this cluster have returned to the third cluster where they originated.

Cluster 1 could be called “disease epidemiology” and includes terms like pneumonia, epidemiology, outbreak, infection, infectious diseases, novel coronavirus pneumonia, treatment and transmission. This cluster contains 2 major topics: a) the main term “the disease” which in addition to the above mentioned terms, but also b) “inpatient care” which contains terms like ARDS, critical illness and airway management. In this cluster some smaller topics are also present.

Cluster 2 could be called «global virus pandemic» and includes terms (beta)coronavirus infection, viral pneumonia, pandemic/epidemic, public health, infection control and quarantine. This cluster contains 3 main topics a) “preventive epidemiology”, which in addition to the terms public health and quarantine contains terms like disease outbreak, travel and contact tracing, b) “care management” which includes terms like infection control, practice guidelines and health personnel and c) “vulnerability” that contains terms like mental health, psychological stress and health service accessibility.

Cluster 3 could be called “pathophysiology and origin” and includes terms like SARS, animals, zoonosis, antiviral agents, viral genome, phylogeny and chiroptera. This cluster contains to major topics: a) “viral biology” which in addition to terms like SARS, animals, viral genome and phylogeny includes terms like spike glycoprotein and peptidyl-dipeptidase a and b) “drug treatment” which in addition to the term antiviral agent, (hydroxyl)chloroquine and chiroptera contains terms like traditional Chinese medicine and lopinavir.

Cluster 4 could be named “clinical epidemiology” and contains terms like mortality, age, gender, clinical laboratory techniques and fever. Also in this cluster, there is only this major topic. Smaller topics include “population care”, “serology” and “pregnancy”.

Cluster descriptions

This week’s rapport confirms what we suspected last week, that the clusters and topics seem to vary less. Clusters 1, 3 and 4 were quite stable, while cluster 2 saw a bit of change, mostly in the addition of a new topic (“inpatient care”). New from this week is that we in cluster 4 mention 3 upcoming topics with increasing number of publications. Finally, the last cluster (cluster 5) seemed to take a bit different course, mostly because most of the terms here moved to be included in cluster 1 in a new topic. Cluster 5 now is more about the disease.

Cluster 1 could be called «global virus pandemic» and includes terms like (beta)coronavirus infection, viral pneumonia, disease outbreak and public health. This cluster contains 3 major topics: a) “preventive epidemiology”, which in addition to the terms like disease outbreak and public health includes terms like travel, epidemic, global heath and civil defence, b) “care management” which includes terms like infection control, practice guidelines and health personnel and c) “vulnerability” that contains terms like mental health, psychological stress and health service accessibility.

Cluster descriptions

Cluster 1 (red) relates to “Health and pandemic management”, and include topics like the epidemic, the impact on global health, the public health, infection control and health personnel. Within this cluster, we found the topic of “Global health politics”, which in addition to terms on the epidemic, the impact on global health and public health included terms like population surveillance, civil defense and risk assessment. Further, within this cluster, we found the topic of “Pandemic management”, which in addition to the terms infection control and health personnel included terms like practice guidelines and patient isolation.

Cluster 2 (green) related to “The disease and its treatment”, including topics like its pneumonia and diagnosis, but also topics like antiviral drugs and artificial respiration. Within this cluster, we found the topic of “Clinical picture”, which in addition to terms on pneumonia and diagnosis, included terms like corona virus and infectious disease. Further, within this cluster, we find the topic of “Drug treatment”, which in addition to the terms antiviral drugs and artificial respiration, includes terms like lopinavir, alanine, chloroquine and clinical trials.

Cluster 3 (blue) related to the “The virus and its epidemiology”, including terms like SARS, it being a zoonosis, its genome and the outbreak in Wuhan. Two major topics were identified within this cluster: “Clinical epidemiology”, which in addition to it being a zoonosis and broke out in Wuhan, includes terms like transmission and basic reproduction rate. The other major topic identified is on the “Virus biology”, which in addition to the terms SARS and genome, included terms like phylogeny, glycoproteins and antibodies.

Cluster 4 (yellow) related to “Clinical epidemiology”, with terms relating to age, gender, and basic clinical signs and procedures (like x-ray, CT, fever).
