A worldwide bibliometric analysis on euthanasia

Introduction: Euthanasia, which allows individuals with an incurable disease to end their lives in an honourable way, is a long-debated practice. It is related to various issues such as culture, philosophy, religion, ethics, public value, and efficient use of health resources. While some advocate for the right of individuals to choose euthanasia, others criticize it on ethical, legal, and religious grounds. Methods: In this study bibliometric analysis was used and the data were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection database on July 26, 2024. Only English publications and articles were included using keywords such as "euthanasia," "end-of-life decisions," "medical assistance in dying," "physician-assisted death," and "physician-assisted suicide" without time restrictions. VOSviewer software was used to create network and density graphs, and SciMAT software was used to create strategic diagrams. Results: A total of 2,230 studies published between 1980 and 2024 were analyzed. The author with the most publications is Deliens, L, with 86 studies. The majority of studies were published in the USA, Netherlands, and Canada (692, 336, 225 respectively). The most frequently used keywords are euthanasia, palliative care, and ethics. The highest number of publications (149) was in the year 2021. In the strategic diagram for the first period (between 1980 and 2001), the themes of care and ethics were prominent, while for the second period (between 2002 and 2024), the clusters of nurse and shared decision-making were notable. Conclusion: After its legalization in the Netherlands, euthanasia has been accepted and implemented in some countries over the years, with variations in scope. Some countries, like the Netherlands and Belgium, also accept health problems related to old age and mental illness as euthanasia requests. The discussion around euthanasia often revolves around the principles of medical ethics, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice. Studies have focused on the role of physicians and nurses in the process, as well as end-of-life decision-making by patients. Recently, Canada defined the role of nurses in the euthanasia process, marking a significant development.

A REVIEW OF STUDIES ON THE THEORY OF COST STICKINESS WITH BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Costs, which are of great importance for businesses, are evaluated in two groups as fixed and variable costs. According to the traditional cost theory, both fixed and variable costs increase and decrease symmetrically at the relevant activity level. However, in recent years, as an alternative to this approach of the traditional cost theory, opinions have emerged that costs may not move symmetrically but asymmetrically depending on the increase or decrease of the activity level. In this framework, the aim of this study is to present conceptual information about this view, which is put forward as an alternative to the traditional cost theory, and to conduct a bibliometric analysis of international studies on the subject . In the study, international literature was searched and Web of Science database was used. In addition, the relationships between the data obtained in the study were presented by creating visual network maps through the "VOSviewer" program. According to the results of the analysis, the most studies on cost stickiness were conducted in 2021 with 64 publications. 90% of the studies were published as articles. 15,197 citations were made to 685 publications, a rate of 22.19% per publication. The researchers who published the most on cost stickiness with 8 publications were Banker, Rajiv D. and Naoum V.C. The highest number of publications in Web of Science categories on cost stickiness was in Economics with approximately 44%. Again, the highest number of citations was in Economics with approximately 69% and the highest number of publications in this field was in Corporate Governance with approximately 32.4%. 62% of the publications were in journals indexed in the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI). 99% of the studies were conducted in English.
