The Scientific mapping of evidence related to burn care in plastic surgery: bibliometric analysisIntroduction: Burns are a global public health priority. Despite the relevance of this topic, significant gaps have been identified in the measurement of public health indicators, as well as in the availability of contextualized evidence to facilitate the implementation of evidence-based practices. Materials and methods: A bibliometric study was conducted using the Scopus database and citation index as the data source. The R programming language was used for data analysis and visualization. Results: 305 articles were selected. The first publication was in 1965. Original articles predominated (73.11%; n=223), followed by reviews (10.49%; n=32), with 7.87% international collaboration. The United States was the most prolific country (n=84), with the greatest impact, measured by an h-index of 25 and an i10-index of 41, and the highest number of collaborations, especially with European and Asian countries. In establishing research patterns and trends, the most frequently used keywords have been tissue expansion, burn contracture, and alopecia. From the 1960s onward, research has focused on therapies, prostheses, and implants, while from 1996 onward, the focus shifted to surgical flaps, mammoplasty, and facial injuries. Discussion: In approximately 60 years of research, the evidence generated has been primarily from primary data originating in high-income countries. Clinical outcomes are among the main areas of research.Introduction: Burns are a global public health priority.
