This study aimed to bibliometrically examine nursing publications regarding cholecystectomy surgery.
The study is a bibliometric analysis.
The study was conducted in the Web of Science database. The ...keywords “cholecystectomy AND nursing” were used during the scanning. The data were evaluated in quantitative aspects.
In the study, 481 publications were identified, publications were made between 1987 and 2023, the average number of years since the release of the publication was 10.2, and the annual increase rate was 8.19%. The most active country was the United States, and the journal most often published in was the “Journal of Perianesthesia Nursing.” In the last 3 years, the themes of “meta-analysis, complication, pain, anxiety, quality of life” have been trending, the most working and continuing to develop our “laparoscopic cholecystectomy” and “pain” themes, and the leading theme in the field was “anxiety”.
This study is the first bibliometric study examining nursing studies on cholecystectomy and provides a comprehensive overview of cholecystectomy and nursing issues over 36 years. In quantitative data, it was concluded that although studies in this field have a long history, the number of publications is low, and the annual growth rate is low. According to the quantitative evaluation results, it was found that the most studied topic in this field was laparoscopic cholecystectomy and pain, minimally invasive intervention and perioperative period topics remained isolated, and computerized tomography and gallbladder themes were among the newly emerging themes.
Customer engagement (CE) is a marketing concept that emerged after the new millennium. Despite flourishing interest on CE among marketing academics and professionals, no review, to date, has provided ...a comprehensive overview of the past, present, and future trends of CE. Instead, past reviews on CE are often limited to conceptual (e.g., construct) or contextual (e.g., hospitality and tourism) insights derived using traditional review methods (e.g., descriptive) with a relatively modest review sample (e.g., tens to low hundreds), which provide a limited understanding of the field in its entirety. To address this gap, this review conducted a combination of bibliometric and thematic analyses on 861 CE articles published in 377 Scopus-indexed journals between 2006 and 2020. As a result, this review reveals the major trends in article, author, country, and journal performance, as well as the past, present, and future thematic trends of CE research, and thus, provides a one stop, state-of-the-art overview of CE that marketing scholars can rely on to position and design future CE research.
High-performance materials called nanocomposites have unique features. Nanocomposites are in high demand in plastic engineering, with an anticipated periodic growth rate of 25 %. Its potential is so ...great that it is useful in numerous operations, from packaging to biomedical operations. It is anticipated that similar equipment and other intriguing operations will be required. The operations of nanocomposites display new specialized and marketable potential for numerous electronics, automotive, aerospace, and biotechnology sectors because of their environmental friendliness. Some studies on water uptake have shown that both ZnO nanorods and polymer polyaniline (PANI) function to prevent up to 75 % of liquid from penetrating the paint layer. With 4 % MWCNT content, a polypyrrole-multiwalled carbon nanotube (PPy-MWCNT) nanocomposites sensor was developed that was most sensitive to NH3 gas. The produced material maintained 86.9 % of its starting specific capacitance. The graphene quantum dots (GQDs) composite results show that the high charge storage retention is 91.45 %. This paper will explain the importance of using nanocomposites in industry applications where the paper decides on coating, sensors, and energy storage.
•The article reviews progress in the synthesis of nanocomposites for different industry applications.•Bibliometric analysis of nanocomposites for industry applications was investigated.•The advantages of using nanocomposites for coating was discussed.•The use of nanocomposites in electrochemical sensors was described in depth.•The use of nanocomposites in energy storage was also discussed.
The entrepreneurship literature pays increasing attention to the ethical aspects of the field. However, only a fragmented understanding is known about how the context influences the ethical judgment ...of entrepreneurs. We argue that individual socio-cultural background, organizational and societal context shape entrepreneurial ethical judgment. In our article, we contribute to contemporary literature by carving out the intersections between Ethics and Entrepreneurship. We do this by employing a two-step research approach: 1) We use bibliometric techniques to analyze 719 contributions in Business and Economics research and present a comprehensive contextual picture of ethics in entrepreneurship research by a analyzing the 30 most relevant foundation articles. 2) A subsequent content analysis of the 50 most relevant academic contributions was carried with an enlarged database out to augment these findings, detailing ethics and entrepreneurship research on an individual, organizational and societal level of analyses. By comparing the two analyses, this paper concludes by outlining possible avenues for future research.
This study identifies the main areas and current dynamics of the field of board diversity and suggests future research directions. Using a bibliometric analysis, we examine a sample of 579 studies ...from the ISI Web of Science database to identify research activity on board diversity between 1999 and early 2019. We find the most influential articles and authors based on their citations and publications as well as their location and importance within the network. We also examine current themes, find impediments to growth in the literature, and suggest avenues for future research. Although research activity on board diversity occurs globally, a lack of collaboration exists across country lines, especially between authors of developed and developing countries. Research on board diversity focuses on gender diversity, with relatively less attention on age, nationality, ethnicity, professional background, and cognition. We conclude by suggesting five potential research directions.
This study aims to review the scientific research on born global firms' phenomena to date. Based on a bibliometric analysis of 453 scientific papers on born global firms from the Thompson Reuters's ...Web of Science™ Core Collection database for the period 1994–2016, the authors discuss the results from the following perspectives: general results, number of publications per year, the articles that other authors cite most, most eminent authors, journals with the highest citation per article, institutions with the highest citation per document, and countries with the highest productivity. This analysis provides networks of co-cited references, journals, and first authors, and their respective clusters, revealing their rankings in terms of contributions to the born global firms' literature.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been labeled as a black swan event that caused a ripple effect on every aspect of human life. Despite the short time span of the pandemic—only four and half months so far—a ...rather large volume of research pertaining to COVID-19 has been published (107 articles indexed in Scopus and the Web of Science). This article presents the findings of a bibliometric study of COVID-19 literature in the business and management domain to identify current areas of research and propose a way forward. The analysis of the published literature identified four main research themes and 18 sub-themes. The findings and propositions of this study suggest that COVID-19 will be the catalyst of several long- and short-term policy changes and requires the theoretical and empirical attention of researchers. The offered propositions will act as a roadmap to potential research opportunities.
Consumer research on conversational agents (CAs) has been growing. To illustrate and map out research in this field, we conducted a systematic literature review (SLR) of published work indexed in the ...Clarivate Web of Science and Elsevier Scopus databases. Four dominant topical areas were identified through bibliographic coupling. They are 1) consumers’ trust in CAs; 2) Natural Language Processing (NLP) in developing and designing CAs; 3) communication with CAs; 4) impact of CAs on value creation and the value of CAs for business. We leverage these findings to provide an updated synopsis of extant scientific work. Moreover, we draw a framework whereby we identify the: 1) drivers of and motivators for adoption and engagement with CAs; and 2) the outcomes of CA adoption for both users and organizations. Finally, we leverage the framework to develop an agenda for future research.
