Pehlivanoğlu, Şeyma; Çelik, Osman Tayyar; Tok, Yasin; Sağlam, Mehmet
This bibliometric study aims to contribute to the literature on adolescent pregnancy by exploring gaps, research trends, contributing countries and journals, collaboration networks, and subject themes, offering a macro perspective on the field’s development and future directions. This study employed a bibliometric research methodology. Publications containing the keywords adolescent, adolescence, youth, teenager, puberty, juvenile, pregnancy, and pregnant were retrieved from the Web of Science (WoS) database (1980–April 24, 2024) and analyzed using VOSviewer and the open-source R bibliometric package, adhering to predefined inclusion/exclusion criteria. The concept of adolescent pregnancy has been studied annually from 1980 to the present, peaking in 2022. Key research topics include sexual and reproductive health, contraception, and depression. According to Lotka’s Law, 84.7% of authors in this field have published only once. Recent studies have focused on birth weight and pregnancy risks. The most cited publication globally and locally is by Ganchimeg et al., while the Journal of Adolescent Health is the most productive platform. The United States, Brazil, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Canada, and Turkey are the most productive countries in this field. The results of this study highlight that adolescent pregnancy remains a global public health issue, as evidenced by its consistent presence in annual research. Key research gaps and trends include social and emotional challenges faced by pregnant adolescents, physical development and health during adolescent pregnancy, causes and prevalence trends, preventive education services, and psychosocial interventions. Further research is essential to develop effective interventions for preventing adolescent pregnancy and safeguarding the best interests of children.

Karakaya, Yunus E.; Dikmen, Melih; Şahin, Aykut
In this study, a relational systematic map of research trends in education, physical education, and sports for disabled people was prepared with the bibliometric mapping method. Scientific data obtained from the Web of Science (WoS) was used in the research. After the search in the WoS database, 423 studies were accessed, and 415 of these were included in the final analysis by applying the exclusion criteria. The VOSviewer (Visualization of Similarities) program was used for the bibliometric analysis. The results of the research demonstrate that the number of studies in the field has increased from the 1980s to the present day. The studies included in the research were published in 50 different countries, in 133 different journals and were carried out by 770 authors working in 409 different universities/institutions. According to the findings, most of the research, the highest number of citations, and the most influential authors were based in the United States of America. The results showed that the most cited author in this field works collaboratively with many national and international researchers. The results of the research may provide practical information for politicians, practitioners, and lecturers to draw their attention to new research trends and opportunities regarding education, physical education and sports for individuals with disabilities.
