dc.description.abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has evolved as an alarming
public health thread due to its global spread as hospital and community
pathogen. Despite this role, a scientometric analysis has not been performed
yet. Therefore, the NewQIS platform was used to conduct a combined density-
equalizing mapping and scientometric study. As database, the Web of Science
was used, and all entries between 1961 and 2007 were analyzed. In total, 7671
entries were identified. Density equalizing mapping demonstrated a distortion
of the world map for the benefit of the USA as leading country with a total
output of 2374 publications, followed by the UK (1030) and Japan (862).
Citation rate analysis revealed Portugal as leading country with a rate of
35.47 citations per article, followed by New Zealand and Denmark. Country
cooperation network analyses showed 743 collaborations with US-UK being most
frequent. Network citation analyses indicated the publications that arose from
the cooperation of USA and France as well as USA and Japan as the most cited
(75.36 and 74.55 citations per collaboration article, respectively). The
present study provides the first combined density-equalizing mapping and
scientometric analysis of MRSA research. It illustrates the global MRSA
research architecture. It can be assumed that this highly relevant topic for
public health will achieve even greater dimensions in the future.
