Abstract

Aim: Earthquake-related lung diseases (ERLD) can be seen as direct and indirect disaster results. ERLD such as inhalation of dust and particulates from collapsed buildings in earthquakes, aspiration of water and pathogens due to tsunami after earthquakes, pulmonary thromboembolism, infectious respiratory diseases, and chest traumas can develop after earthquakes. The aim of this bibliometric review is to explore the intellectual structure of ERLD publications.
Material and Methods: A search strategy for databases related to the ERDL area was developed. 334 articles were accessed in the Web of Science database. As a result of the full-text readings, 152 articles remained, and 152 articles were subjected to citation and co-citation analysis with bibliometric software. In addition to this research, methodologies based on cluster analysis were used to examine the intellectual structure of the field.
Results: When the time period of the publications is examined, it is seen that the first publication was published in 1996. When the top three authors are examined, Yanai shares the ranking with 6 publications, Ueda 6 publications, and Kobayashi 5 publications. Japan, also an earthquake country, is in first place with 50 publications. Three main clusters were identified. These clusters are “chest traumas: types, frequency, and medical intervention strategies," “earthquake preparedness and earthquake response capacity," and "respiratory tract infections and an earthquake."
Conclusion: In addition to identifying the most influential journals, authors, and countries on earthquakes in the area of ERLD, this research identified the dominant research themes in this field. Our research outlines the area of ERLD, provides an agenda for future research, and contributes to the fact that the relationship between earthquakes and pulmonary diseases is studied more deeply.

Deprem İlişkili Akciğer Hastalıkları; Yayınların Bibliyometrik Analizi

Abstract

Amaç: Depreme bağlı akciğer hastalıkları (DİAH), afetin hem doğrudan hem de dolaylı sonucu olarak görülebilmektedir. Depremlerde yıkılan binalardan çıkan toz ve partiküllerin solunması, deprem sonrası oluşabilecek tsunami nedeniyle su ve patojenlerin aspirasyonu, pulmoner tromboembolizm, bulaşıcı solunum yolu hastalıkları ve göğüs travmaları gibi birçok DİAH gelişebilir. Bu bibliyometrik incelemenin amacı, DİAH yayınlarının entelektüel yapısını keşfetmektir.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: DİAH alanıyla ilgili veri tabanları için bir arama stratejisi geliştirilmiştir. Web of Science veri tabanında 334 makaleye ulaşılmıştır. Tam metin okumaları sonucunda kalan 152 makale bibliyometrik yazılım ile atıf ve ortak atıf analizine tabi tutulmuştur. Bu araştırmaya ek olarak, alanın entelektüel yapısını incelemek için küme analizine dayalı metodolojiler kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Yayınların yapıldığı zaman dilimine bakıldığında ilk yayının 1996 yılında yayınlandığı görülmektedir. İlk üç yazar incelendiğinde Yanai 6 yayın, Ueda 6 yayın ve Kobayashi 5 yayın ile sıralamayı paylaşıyor. Aynı zamanda bir deprem ülkesi olan Japonya 50 yayınla ilk sırada yer alıyor. Üç ana küme belirlenmiş olup, bu kümeler, “göğüs travmaları: tipleri, sıklıkları ve tıbbi müdahale stratejileri”, “depreme hazırlıklı olma ve depreme müdahale kapasitesi” ve “solunum yolu enfeksiyonları ve depremdir”.
Sonuç: Bu araştırma, DİAH alanındaki depremler konusunda en etkili dergileri, yazarları ve ülkeleri belirlemenin yanı sıra, bu alandaki baskın araştırma temalarını da belirlemiştir. Araştırmamız DİAH alanını özetlemekte, gelecekteki araştırmalar için bir gündem sağlamakta ve deprem ile akciğer hastalıkları arasındaki ilişkinin daha derinlemesine çalışılmasına katkıda bulunmaktadır.
