Participation of Na + Channels in Epilepsy: A Bibliometric Analysis of the Scientific Production in the World
Author(s): Carmen Rubio, Ernesto Piñón, José Molina-García, Alonso Portilla and Moisés Rubio Osornio*
Background: Bibliometric analysis can be used to measure and evaluate scientific activities in certain areas, so we know where to focus our efforts. Epilepsies are mostly idiopathic and genetic, as in Dravet’s syndrome, linked to sodium channels. With this in mind, this paper delves into the published articles related to the involvement of sodium (Na+) channels in epilepsy, to get a better perspective of this specific area. Methods: The analysis was carried out by means of the scientific follow-up of epilepsy and the study of Na+ channels in the SCOPUS databases. The information was extracted from original articles between 2000 and 2022, using epilepsy, seizure, epileptic, Na, sodium, channel, channelopathy, and channelopathies, as keywords. From the articles obtained, these were filtered and categorized (mechanisms, drugs, genetics, c.. Read More»
