Abstract:

 Taenia saginata T. saginata, is a zoonotic helminth with a global distribution that causes taeniasis in humans and cysticercosis in cattle. Currently, Taenia saginata poses health risks to humans and causes economic losses in the livestock sector. The aim of this study is to explore the definition of T. saginata in the scientific community and the evolution of studies in this field through bibliometric analysis. The Web of Science database was used to search the literature on Taenia saginata. All English research articles published in the Web of Science database between 1980 and 2024 were identified. The data were analyzed using the Bibliometrix package of R programming language and VOSviewer. In the research conducted with 491 studies published in 168 journals, the most influential authors, countries and institutes as well as the most frequently used keywords for T. saginata were identified. Veterinary Parasitology was identified as the most influential journal in the field with 32 articles and 1017 citations. The most productive country was England, while Japan had the highest Multiple Country Publication rate. The most influential authors were Leslie Jayne Stevenson Harrison, Akira Ito, and Pierre Dorny. The most frequently used author keywords were Taenia saginata, Taenia solium, and Cysticercosis. This bibliometric study presents an overview of Taenia saginata research, including advancements and research collaborations in the field. Taeniasis remains a major problem in underdeveloped countries, particularly on the African continent. Control and eradication of taeniasis outbreaks in these regions should be prioritised, and given the potential for other countries to be affected by migration, research institutions in developed countries should initiate and fund joint projects with less developed countries.

 Taenia saginata T. saginata, insanlarda taeniasis ve sığırlarda sistiserkoza neden olan küresel dağılıma sahip zoonotik bir helminttir. Günümüzde T. saginata insanlar için sağlık riskleri oluşturmakta ve hayvancılık sektöründe ekonomik kayıplara neden olmaktadır. Bu çalışma, T. saginata nın bilim camiasındaki tanımı ve bu alanda yapılan çalışmaların evrimini bibliyometrik analiz yoluyla keşfetmeyi amaçlamıştır. T. saginata ile ilgili literatür taraması için Web of Science veri tabanı kullanılmıştır. Web of Science veri tabanında 19802024 yıllarında yayınlanan tüm İngilizce araştırma makaleleri tespit edilmiştir. Veriler, R programlama dilinin Bibliometrix paketi ve VOSviewer kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Toplam 168 dergide yayınlanan 491 çalışma ile yürütülen araştırmada T. saginata için en etkili yazarlar, ülkeler ve enstitülerin yanı sıra en sık kullanılan anahtar kelimeler belirlendi. Veterinary Parasitology 32 makale ve 1017 atıf ile alanda en etkili dergi olarak belirlendi. En üretken ülke İngiltere olurken, Japonya en yüksek Çok Ülkeli Yayın oranına sahip oldu. En etkili yazarlar Leslie Jayne Stevenson Harrison, Akira Ito ve Pierre Dorny olmuştur. En sık kullanılan yazar anahtar kelimeleri Taenia saginata, Taenia solium ve Cysticercosis olmuştur. Bu bibliyometrik çalışma, alandaki ilerlemeler ve araştırma işbirlikleri de dahil olmak üzere T. saginata araştırmalarına genel bir bakış sunmaktadır. Taeniasis, özellikle Afrika kıtası başta olmak üzere az gelişmiş ülkelerde önemli bir sorun olmaya devam etmektedir. Bu bölgelerdeki taeniasis salgınlarının kontrol ve eradikasyonuna öncelik verilmeli ve göç yoluyla diğer ülkeleri etkileme potansiyeli göz önüne alındığında, gelişmiş ülkelerdeki araştırma kurumları az gelişmiş ülkelerle ortak projeler başlatıp bu projelere finansal destek sağlamalıdır.
