Abstract
Amaç: Bu çalışmada, 40 yıllık bir süre boyunca leishmaniasis araştırmaları hakkında literatürün gözden geçirilmesi ve Türkiye’nin küresel leishmaniasis araştırmalarına artan katkısını değerlendirmek amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bibliyometrik veriler Ocak 1980 ile Aralık 2019 arasında Web of Science veritabanında indekslenen tüm leishmaniasis araştırma yayınlarını içermektedir. Çalışmada dil veya belge türü kısıtlaması uygulanmadı. Türkiye için yayın ve araştırma etkisini değerlendirmek amacıyla yazılımın analiz fonksiyonundan ülke olarak “Türkiye” seçilerek bu alanda yapılan yayınlar konularına ve yıllık sayılarına göre kaydedildi.
Bulgular: Web of Science veri tabanında 1980’den 2019’a kadar leishmaniasis ile ilgili 39373 yayın indekslenmiştir. Bu yayınlardan 541’i Türkiye kaynaklı olarak yayınlanmıştır. Elde edilen yayınların yazım dili analiz edildiğinde İngilizce %95,7'lik oranla en büyük paya sahiptir. Dünya genelinde Leishmania çalışmalarının coğrafi dağılımı incelendiğinde Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nin 9396 yayın (%23,86) ile birinci sırada yer aldığı saptanmıştır. Türkiye ise yayın sayısı bakımından 541 (%1,37) makale ile 20. sırada yer almaktadır.
Sonuç: Bu çalışma, dünya çapında leishmaniasis ile ilgili araştırmalar hakkında bilgi sunmakta ve Türkiye’nin küresel araştırma çıktılarıyla ilişkisini kıyaslayan yeni bir olanak sağlamaktadır. Bu yenilikçi yaklaşımla elde edilen sonuçlar, mevcut bilimsel değişimleri de ortaya koyacağından ilgili araştırmacıların leishmaniasis çalışmaları hakkında güncel durumunu analiz etmelerine yardımcı olacaktır.

Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study is to review the studies on leishmaniasis since 40 years and to evaluate the increasing contribution of Turkey in terms of the studies on leishmaniasis globally.
Material and Method: The literature data included all leishmaniasis research publications in the Web of Science database between January 1980 and December 2019. Language or document type limitations were not used. To evaluate the publication and research effect of Turkey, in the analysis function of the database, “Turkey” was chosen as the country and the publications on this topic were recorded based on their subject areas and yearly counts.
Results: A total of 39373 publications were indexed from 1980 to 2019 in the Web of Science database. Among these publication, 541 were from Turkey. Language analysis of the publications revealed that English had the largest percentage (95.7%). When the worldwide geographical distribution of studies on leishmaniasis was analyzed, United States of America was the first with 9396 publications (23.86%). In terms of the number of publications, Turkey ranked 20th with 541 (1.37%) articles.
Conclusion: Thus, this study presents information regarding the worldwide studies on leishmaniasis and provides an opportunity to compare the relationship of Turkey’s research output with that of the global one. The results of the present study will reveal the current scientific changes and thus help in analyzing the current state of leishmaniasis studies.
