Abstract

Objective: To assessment the scientific productivity and collaborative network analysis on aerospace medicine literature required bibliographic data have been extracted from the Scopus database with the utilization of all field search strategies. The keyword “Aerospace Medicine” was used as a topic search with the objectives of the study. Methods: The scientometric method has been used in this research from 2014 to 2023. The bibliographic data was exported in plain text format for this research. Bibexcel, VOSviewer, Microsoft Excel and Word were employed for data analysis and visualization functions. Results: Totally 11630 bibliographic records have been extracted in the study. The productivity of aerospace medicine publications has an upward trend from 2014(708) 6.08% to 2023(1564) 13.76%. The annual growth rate has shown spikes in the years 2021 and 2016 with the count of 18.46 and 16.77 respectively. Wang X and Wang Y are notable collaborative authors in aerospace medicine publications; they collaboratively published 4 publications with 0.03%. The United States has published 4122(35.44%) publications with 71533 citations. Conclusions: Overall, the aerospace medicine publications are increased and it shows the growth trend from 2014 to 2023. The results of the study will be useful for aerospace professionals to find out the hotspots and collaboration networks in the aerospace medicine domain.
