Dikkat Eksikliği Hiperaktivite Bozukluğu ile İlişkili Uyku Bozuklukları: Küresel Yayın Eğilimlerinin Bibliyometrik Analizi

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, Dikkat Eksikliği ve Hiperaktivite Bozukluğu (DEHB) ile ilişkili uyku bozuklukları üzerine yapılan küresel araştırmalaraın bibliyometrik analizinin yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection (1990–2025) kullanılarak bibliyometrik bir analiz gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yayınlar araştırma alanlarına göre filtrelenmiş; Bibliometrix R paketi ve VOSviewer ile analiz edilmiştir. Küresel araştırma modellerini belirlemek amacıyla yayın eğilimleri, atıf etkisi, en üretken yazarlar, kurumlar, dergiler ve anahtar kelime ağlarını içeren bibliyometrik göstergeler incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Yıllık çıktı sayısında istikrarlı bir artış ve 2010'dan sonra belirgin bir yükseliş (bileşik yıllık büyüme oranı ≈ %14,2) gösteren toplam 1.732 yayın belirlenmiştir. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri (735 makale) üretkenlikte liderliği çekerken, kurumlar arasında Harvard Üniversitesi ilk sırada yer almıştır. Anahtar kelime analizi dört ana küme ortaya koymuştur: (1) farmakoterapi ve tedavi sonuçları; (2) gelişimsel ve pediyatrik spektrum bozuklukları; (3) epidemiyoloji ve risk faktörleri; ve (4) psikiyatrik komorbiditeler ve uyku bozuklukları. Sonuç: DEHB ile ilişkili uyku bozukluklarına yönelik bilimsel ilgi, disiplinler arası iş birliği ile nörogörüntüleme ve uyku değerlendirmesindeki ilerlemelerin desteğiyle son yirmi yılda önemli ölçüde genişlemiştir. Metodolojik heterojenlik ve düşük-orta gelirli ülkelerin sınırlı temsili, literatürdeki kalıcı boşluklar arasındadır.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder-Related Sleep Disorders: A Bibliometric Analysis of Global Research Trends

Öz

Objective: The aim of this study was to conduct a bibliometric analysis of global research on sleep disorders associated with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Methods: A bibliometric analysis was performed using the Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection (1990–2025). Publications were filtered by research field and analyzed using the Bibliometrix R package and VOSviewer. Bibliometric indicators, including publication trends, citation impact, the most productive authors, institutions, journals, and keyword networks, were examined to identify global research patterns. Results: A total of 1,732 publications were identified, showing a steady increase in annual output and a marked rise after 2010. United States (735 articles) led in productivity, while Harvard University ranked first among institutions. Keyword analysis revealed four main clusters: (1) pharmacotherapy and treatment outcomes; (2) developmental and pediatric spectrum disorders; (3) epidemiology and risk factors; and (4) psychiatric comorbidities and sleep disorders. Since 2018, research has shifted toward neurobiological and circadian mechanisms. Conclusion: Scientific interest in sleep disorders associated with ADHD has expanded significantly over the past two decades, supported by interdisciplinary collaboration and advances in neuroimaging and sleep assessment. Methodological heterogeneity and the limited representation of low- and middle-income countries remain persistent gaps in the literature.
