Social Media Research, Human Behavior, and Sustainable Society

“…The common network analysis includes co-word analysis [33][34][35], co-citation analysis [36,37], co-authorship analysis [38][39][40], and co-publication analysis [41]. Many disciplines have used bibliometric methods to explore the impact of research themes, such as natural science, engineering, business, social sciences, and humanities [42][43][44][45][46].

A Bibliometric Assessment of Global Ice Bucket Challenge (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) Research

“…These studies appear in different journals, dedicated to publish research related to neurology. In recent years, various researches on neurological disorder have been analyzed using the bibliometric methods, such as the publication output on Parkinson's disease [8][9][10] , Alzheimer's disease [11][12][13][14] , and Guillain-Barre syndrome [15] . Some other bibliometric studies related to these diseases are specialty focused on the contribution by specific countries [16,17] .…”

“…It was found that the publication on ALS-related research obtained an overall GR of 1,543.59 (AGR of 39.59%) with 507 articles in the period [1974][1975][1976][1977][1978] The data were further analyzed, and it was found that a significant correlation exists between the annual cumulative number of publications and the period of study 1990 1974 1982 1991 1975 1983 1992 1976 1984 1993 1977 1985 1994 1978 1986 1995 1979 1987 1996 1980 1988 1997 1981 1989 1998 2006 1999 2007 2000 2008 2001 2009 2002 2010 2011 2003 Due to the high coefficients of determination (r 2 = 0.9707), the rate of increase in global publication on ALS is expected to continue. Li et al [8] reported an increasing trend of publications, which deals with neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, Huntington's disease, and Friedreich's ataxia.…”
