A Bibliometric and Visualized Overview for the Evolution of Process Safety and Environmental Protection

The Holy Quran, hadiths, and fiqh texts are among the primary and secondary sources that are being used to alter the Islamic economic and financial system in accordance with contemporary economic changes. The aim of this study is to evaluate the qualitative output in the field from a bibliometric perspective by examining the academic studies that cover the concept of 'hadith' and are indexed in the economics and finance categories of the Web of Science (WOS) database. As part of the study, a comprehensive literature review, known as a bibliometric mapping analysis, was conducted. The study conducted a bibliometric analysis of all studies that include the term hadith in the WOS database between 1982/01-2023/07 and the studies that fall into the WOS categories (economics, business, business finance). In addition, a content analysis of the articles containing the term hadith in the Web of Science (WOS) database was carried out. As part of the study, the data were categorized using VOSviewer (1.6.18). As a result of the study, it was found that there are a majority of studies that make conceptual evaluations in the field of Hadith and these studies are concentrated on the theological basis. It was found that there are very few studies in the economic and financial category of the Hadith concept and that there is a gap in this area. Therefore, the results of this study will shed light on future studies.

This study was conducted to perform a bibliometric analysis of research in the field of green accounting. In this context, publications indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database were examined.

Based on these analyses, visual mappings were created, and the discussion and conclusions were presented.

The aim of this research is to perform a bibliometric analysis of published academic studies on “bilingualism” in the category of educational research in the Web of Science (WoS) database. Research titles were searched using the keyword “bilingualism” in all WoS data bases on the Web of Knowledge Web page. In order to reach a holistic interpretation, the study was done to cover the 51-year time period between the years 1970-2021 by starting from the oldest date available in the database. As a result of the search, the bibliometric data of the 1975 academic study was used as the data set of the study. The bibliometric analysis was used as the data analysis technique in the study. The research topics and orientations of the academic publications examined within the scope of the study were visually mapped through the keywords in the publications. Within this direction, WordArt online word cloud software was preferred. The social network analysis of the keywords of the 1975 academic study on bilingualism that is one of the bibliometric analysis tools, was visualized by using the VOSviewer (Version 1.6.16) package program. As a result of the analysis done, the year 2020 was the year with the most publications on bilingualism in the WoS database. In the field, mostly English publications were made. Most of the detected publications are of the article type. The California State University System – USA ranks first as the institution in which the authors publish on bilingualism. Most publications on bilingualism were done in the International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism. The country with the most publications and the country with the most cooperation network is the USA. It has been determined that concepts such as bilingualism, multilingualism, bilingual education, language policy, language switching, dual literacy, identity, language ideologies, second language acquisition, code change and literacy are used in scientific publications. It is thought that the study draws a broad framework for researchers in the field and contributes to the field.

Sustainable architecture is becoming increasingly important today, and designs that take into account environmental conditions come to the fore, especially in the life cycle of the existing building stock and in the processes of building new buildings. The principles of sustainable architecture aim to produce buildings that cause the least damage to the environment and consume the least amount of natural resources, minimize the damage to the environment in the existing building stock, and provide sustainable qualities through renovation processes. Not demolishing the existing building stock, not destroying the energy embedded in buildings, not creating waste, and not harming the environment is a sustainable architectural approach. In addition, by renovating buildings to increase their sustainable quality, they are made more sensitive to the environment. This study aims to evaluate the publications on sustainable building renovation by bibliometric analysis method. Within the scope of the study, data obtained from the Web of Science (WoS) database were used. The study retrieved 1058 publications published between 2001 and 2024 from the Web of Science database on November 17, 2024. The data obtained as a result of bibliometric analysis were created visual network maps using the VOSviewer program. This study emphasizes the importance of sustainable renovation of buildings and efficient consumption of resources within the scope of sustainable development. Within the scope of the study, quantitative data on the development of the subject in the world in line with the bibliometric analysis method are included. In this direction, suggestions have been developed on what needs to be done to increase sustainable building renovation studies.

The aim of this study was to appraise the bibliometric parameters of pulpotomy in the past 24 years from January 2000 to December 2023. The dataset was obtained from the Web of Science (WoS) database. The filter publication years were applied. The bibliographic details of all types of documents indexed in the WoS database under keywords of "Dental pulp exposure" or "Coronal pulpotomy" or "Partial pulpotomy" or "Permanent pulpotomy" or Pulpectomy published in the targeted period (2000-2023) were downloaded. The bibliometric characteristics such as the type of documents, growth of publications and citations by years, level of evidence, top publication channels, top countries, top contributing organizations, top authors, and keywords were analyzed. MS Excel, VOSviewer, and R were utilized for data analysis. A total of 738 documents were identified, and they were published in 213 sources contributed by 3,017 authors from 75 countries. A fluctuated growth was recorded and the majority of the research (82.12%) was published in the latter half (2012-2023) of the targeted period. Most of the studies utilized the Level of Evidence (LoE) IV but the studies on LoE-I gained the highest average citations. The majority of papers were produced by India, closely followed by Brazil and the United States. Thus,the upward trend in the latter half was suggestive of advancement in oral health education along with enhancementin research publications.

The International Journal of LCA recently published two articles that highlight life cycle assessment (LCA) research worldwide: Chen et al. (Int J Life Cycle Assess 19(10):1674–1685, 2014) and Hou et al. (Int J Life Cycle Assess 20(4):541–555, 2015). Both research papers conducted a bibliometric analysis using the Web of Science (WoS) database and ranked scientific journals and research institutions according to publication performances based on article counts and citation analysis. The expected outcome of this work is to contribute to a better map of global scientific LCA research— a vital tool in the field. However, the methodology used to retrieve the publications showed that many key LCA research articles were not taken into account in the surveyed literature and revealed inconsistencies related to author affiliation. By studying their research outputs, significant insights have been gained into ways to improve the indexing of scientific papers and, in turn, help researchers better disseminate and communicate their findings and overcome ranking bias.

Strange attractors in the Web of Science database

In order to understand the progress and frontier in the application of BSA(bulked segregant analysis) method in crop breeding and to reflect objectively the contribution of different countries, institutions and researchers in this field at home and abroad, this study analyzed 2111 items in the WOS (Web of Science) database from 2000 to 2023 and 446 items in the CNKI (China National through Knowledge Infrastructure) database from 2003 to 2023, regarding the researches of the application of BSA in crop breeding, basing on bibliometric analysis methods using CiteSpace software including keyword co-occurrence analysis, highlight word analysis, keyword clustering analysis, clustering timeline analysis and author co-citation. The results showed that there was an consistent increasing trend in the publication number of the application of BSA in crop breeding both in the domestic and foreign journals year by year. Ranking of the top countries according to the number of publications was China, the United States and India. The Huazhong Agricultural University displayed the highest number of publications in the CNKI database, while the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences was found to have the highest number of publications in the WOS database. The published articles related to the application of BSA in crop breeding abroad mainly focused on the disciplines such as plant science, agronomy, horticulture and genetics, while those in China mainly concentrated on such disciplines as plant science, plant protection, horticulture and biology. The top three authors in terms of influence in the field of appling BSA in crop breeding were Michelmore RW, Kosambi DD and Li H, while Michelmore RW, Lander ES and Li H had closer cooperations with other authors. The top three crops relating to the studies of BSA were rice(Oryza sativa), soybean(Glycine max), corn(Zea mays L.) with the hot spot traits of disease resistance and plant height domestically. The top three crops involving the studies of BSA were rice, Arabidopsis thaliana and wheat(Triticum aestivum L.) with hot spot traits of disease resistance abroad. Up to now, BSA was mainly used to localize and functionally verify the candidate genes linking target traits and the mutated genes in crops in the domestical documents, while the foreign published studies based on BSA were mainly focused on the fine mapping and functional verification of target trait genes aiming at the revelation of genetic mechanisms in crops. Research frontier analysis indicated that rice, peanuts(Arachis hypogaea L.), upland cotton(Gossypium hirsutum L.) would be the main objects of studies concerning application of BSA in crop breeding with the hot topics of crop mutants and crop metabolites in the future.

Millions of people around the world rely on aquaculture as a major source of food. In the recent few years, probiotics have gained considerable attention as an alternative agent to antibiotics. They have been shown to play an important role in improving aquaculture species through different mechanisms, mainly disease management, improving their growth performance, and improving water quality. Consequently, this review aimed to identify the key areas of research in the global literature about the influence of probiotics on aquaculture based on the selected keywords "aquaculture" AND "probiotics" AND "growth performance" AND "disease resistance" (APGD). The meta-data of the published literature were extracted from the Web of Science (WoS) database on 23 December 2024, and then the co-authors, countries, and keywords were analyzed and visualized using VOSviewer (v. 1.6.20). The search found a remarkable number of documents, which included 175 APGD documents. The results of the bibliometric analysis of the global literature reveal a substantial increase in the publication of APGD documents from 2019 to 2024. Asia, particularly China (32.3% of documents), has emerged as a leader of APGD publications, followed by Iran (8.67%), India (8.01%), Malaysia (7.5%), and Spain (7.5%), respectively. Keyword analysis revealed the prevalence of disease resistance (length = 1793), probiotics (1348), aquaculture (1169), and growth performance (913) as the most impactful keywords based on the WoS database. This could indicate that most of the APGD documents were focused on disease resistance and probiotics relationships. In addition, an extensive review of the recent literature showed that probiotics have demonstrated a remarkable efficacy in improving the growth performance, feed utilization efficiency, disease prevention, and water quality management in various aquaculture species under different aquaculture systems when used as feed or water additives for 30-90 days. It can be concluded that Asia is the lead continent in aquaculture probiotics research, with a significant increase in APGD documents in the last 5 years. Probiotics played a major role in improving aquatic species. This research aims to provide valuable insight into the use of probiotics in aquaculture and highlights the need for further research to fully understand their benefits and mechanisms of action.
