Abstract
Science studies have been a field of research for different knowledge areas, and they have been successfully used to analyse the construction of scientific knowledge, practice and dissemination. In this study, we aimed to verify how the Zika epidemic has moulded the scientific articles published worldwide by analysing international collaborations and the knowledge landscape through time, as well as research topics and country involvement. Methodology
We searched the Web of Science (WoS), Scopus and PubMed for studies published up to
31st December 2018 on Zika using the search terms “zika”, “zkv” or “zikv”. We analysed the
scientific production regarding which countries have published the most, on which topics, as
well as country level collaboration. We performed a scientometric analysis of research on
Zika focusing on knowledge mapping and the scientific research path over time and space.
