Bibliometric Indicators of the Zika Outbreak

Resumen

The Zika Outbreak The current Zika outbreak and its obvious relevance to public health motivated important changes in the traditional process of peer review and publication of scientific articles. The public health emergency of international concern demanded rapidly available information, aiming to generate knowledge applicable for combating the crisis. Major scientific journals are now calling for papers on the Zika virus (Table 1), offering fast-track review of submissions that usually undergo a streamlined peer-review process followed by immediate publication upon acceptance of articles [1–5]. Scientific content concerning the Zika virus is usually free to access, which accelerates knowledge flow. In many journals, reviewers are asked to evaluate only if the research methods are sound and support the conclusions and if the work will contribute in some way towards resolving the immediate challenges [3]. This scenario induced a desirable upsurge in the generation of knowledge translated into scientific publications [6]. On the basis of our previous experience of mapping scientific trends in the field of fungal infections [7], bibliometric indicators of the Zika outbreak were analyzed, aiming to produce a general picture of where the field of Zika virus research currently stands.
