Quantifying research productivity of BLDE deemed to be university: A bibliometric analysis

Abstract

Research articles represent the scientific community's viewpoints and serve as a guide for publishing, offering insight into the dynamics of the knowledge ecosystem in a situation that affects innovation and public policy. This bibliometric study aimed to determine the key features of research articles published at the BLDE (Deemed to be University [DU]) from 1992 to 2021, which were indexed in Scopus. A total of 847 research articles were authored by 520 writers, most of the subjects under medical science. The preferred source of BLDE (DU) authors is JCDR and Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences University Journal. Arun Inamadar was the most prolific and well-quoted author. The early stages of research publications represented contingent features of health science's global, regional, and national trajectory. Research articles enable the scientific community to participate in continuous conversations throughout the growing and fast-evolving health science crises.
