Abstract
Objective: To examine the thematic evolution and scientific productivity of the relationship between deep brain stimulation (DBS) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Materials and methods: A descriptive study using a scientometric approach was conducted using the Scopus database between 2019 and July 2024. Data were exported to the SciVal bibliometric analysis tool, and bibliometric indicators, such as number of publications per country/region, citations per publication, and h-index, were used. Results: A total of 150 publications were obtained, mostly of high quality (Q1) and coming from the USA and China. Lozano was the most productive author, and the University of Toronto in Canada had the highest number of publications. The journal with the highest impact was Frontiers in Neuroscience with 21.3 citations/paper, and most authors only published one article. Conclusions: The bibliometric study revealed decreasing research trends but mostly highlighted large international collaborations, especially in high-impact journals. The findings can serve as a basis for future research and policies evaluating the impact of DBS in the management of patients with AD.
