Scientometric Analysis of Cancer Research in India
Cancer research in India has risen in size and influence during the last 20 years. From low-tech, large-scale health outcomes to some of the most sophisticated fields of fundamental cancer science, Indian clinicians, scientists, and federal and state policymakers have championed cancer research. A scientometric study using descriptive analyses to determine annual growth patterns in publications across all cancer research literature from India. A visualisation software tool (VOS viewer) was used to explore the geographical distribution of the research activity. We retrieved 17,904 cancer-related articles published by India-affiliated authors from 2012 to 2021. An increase in the number and range of topics explored in cancer- relatedpublications over time was identified. The summary of the current corpus of cancer-related research for India can be used to direct the development of the national cancer control plan alongside informing the national cancer research strategy. Our novel and feasible scientometric approach can be used to direct future national and regional mapping of cancer research
