Abstract
Introduction: The present study aimed to perform a bibliometric analysis of neuroscience and noncommunicable diseases in the Scopus database between 2003 and 2023. Bibliometric analysis served as the main tool to analyze academic production. Methods: 867 papers were selected for the study based on English keywords ("neuroscience," "noncommunicable," and "diseases"). Results: The period from 2015 to 2023 accounted for 58% of the total publications, with 503 academic publications, which had the most significant influence on scientific production in terms of percentage increase. The United States accounted for 35.9% of the production. The most relevant publication sources, with n=10 each, were Neuromethods and Neuroscientist. Farooqui, A.A. obtained the most citations (105) in his four papers. Of the total number of papers, 21% were scientific articles, of which 32% pertained to medicine and 20% to neuroscience. Neuroscience and noncommunicable diseases have advanced significantly in terms of thematic variety, authorship, sources, and accessible resources. Conclusions: This bibliometric study provides a solid foundation for future research in the field of neuroscience and noncommunicable diseases, highlighting the importance of this area and its growth in the academic realm..
