Özet

Although cerebral palsy (CP), which affects the quality of life of many children and their families, is the most common cause of motor dysfunction in children, no comprehensive bibliometric study has holistically evaluated the publications on CP. This study aimed to analyze the scientific outputs published on CP in pediatrics research between 1980 and 2019 using bibliometric and statistical methods, and reveal new study trends in this field. The literature search was performed in the Web of Science database using the keyword cerebral palsy in the title section of the articles published only in the pediatrics research field. Four-thousand seventy-five publications were obtained in the field of pediatrics research on CP, 3027 of which were articles. We shared abstract information of 3027 articles published between 1980 and 2019 with this comprehensive bibliometric study, which will be a useful guide for physicians and scientists on the global outcomes of CP, and we discussed new trends in this topic. We think that comprehensive bibliometric analyzes on subjects that we frequently encounter in clinics and which are widely researched will contribute to the field.
