Abstract
The objective of this study is to present, through scientometrics, data obtained from research related to chronic enteropathy in dogs, in order to produce a quantitative analysis of the scientific production on the topic, supporting research and scientific articles. Using the Web of Science database, 111 articles were selected based on the specific critria including of title, language, species and its relation to the topic of this research. Data were collected and analysed based on the number of articles published by date, keywords used, number of authors, and institutions. The results demonstrate that the year 2022 recorded the highest number of publications, with 27 articles. Three authors were prominent, contributing between 12 and 18 publications. Furthermore, the number of studies per institution varied between 43 and 13 articles. This analysis highlights the key contributors and trends in the field, offering insights into the topic addressed, making it possible to conclude that research like this can contribute to the development of solutions for managing chronic enteropathies in dogs.
