Despite existence of large amount of research data on the developments related to Q fever, no bibliometric analysis of this subject is available to our knowledge. Bibliometric studies are an essential resource to track scholarly trends and research output in a subject. This study is aimed at reporting a bibliometric analysis of publications related to Q fever (2,840 articles published in the period 1990\u20102019) retrieved from Science Citation Index Expanded, an online database of Clarivate Analytics Web of Science Core Collection. Data was retrieved using keywords \u201cQ fever\u201d or \u201c<jats:italic>Coxiella burnetii<\/jats:italic>\u201d in title, abstract, and author keywords to describe important research indicators such as the kind and language of articles, the most important publications, research journals and categories, authors, institutions, and the countries having the most significant contribution to this subject. Finally, the emerging areas in field of diagnosis, host range, and clinical presentation were identified. Word cluster analysis of research related to Q fever revealed that major focus of research has been on zoonosis, seroprevalence, laboratory diagnosis (mainly using ELISA and PCR), clinical manifestations (abortion and endocarditis), vectors (ticks), and hosts (sheep, goat, and cattle). This bibliometric study is intended to visualize the existing research landscape and future trends in Q fever to assist in future knowledge exchange and research collaborations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2022\/9324471","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,16]],"date-time":"2022-01-16T09:50:05Z","timestamp":1642326605000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Research Trends and Hotspots of Q Fever Research: A Bibliometric Analysis 1990\u20102019"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2022","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8771-3219","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muhammad","family":"Farooq","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5616-7833","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aman Ullah","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hosny","family":"El-Adawy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Katja","family":"Mertens-Scholz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Iahtasham","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Heinrich","family":"Neubauer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2557-8736","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yuh-Shan","family":"Ho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_1_2","article-title":"An old but still a poorly understood disease","volume":"2012","author":"Fever H.","year":"2012","journal-title":"Interdisciplinary perspectives on infectious diseases."},{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0950268819000736"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.00045-16"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1051\/vetres:2006038"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_2","volume-title":"Clinical manifestations and diagnosis of Q fever","author":"Raoult D.","year":"2015"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0950268818001395"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jenvman.2020.110886"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_2","first-page":"5","article-title":"Keywords plus-ISI\u2019s breakthrough retrieval method. 1.
