Summary

This paper provides an overview of the scientific landscape, highlights research focus areas, and outlines potential future investigations on Langya henipavirus. It was done via a systematic review and bibliometric analysis over the past two decades.

Key Findings

Henipavirus research has increased at an annual rate of 8.82% over the past two decades
The United States leads in research output, with the Australian Animal Health Laboratory as the top institution
Most articles are published in the Journal of Virology, identified as the most influential journal
Current research focuses on ‘zoonosis’, ‘vaccine’, and ‘pathogenesis’
Future areas may include ‘molecular docking’, ‘immunoinformatics’, ‘climate change’, ‘antibodies’, ‘vaccines’, ‘glycoprotein’, and ‘ephrin-b2’

Methodology

Study Type: Review and Bibliometric Analysis
Time Period: 1995-2022
