BackgroundMarburg virus (MARV), a close relative of Ebola virus, could induce hemorrhagic fevers in humans with high mortality rate. In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to this highly lethal due sporadic outbreaks observed various African nations. This bibliometric analysis endeavors elucidate the trends, dynamics, and focal points knowledge that have delineated landscape research concerning MARV.MethodsRelevant literature on MARV from 1968 2023 was extracted Web Science Core Collection database. Following this, data underwent visualization procedures utilizing online platform, CiteSpace 6.2R6, VOSviewer 1.6.20. Three different types indicators including quantitative indicator, qualitative indicators, structural were used gauge researcher's productivity, assess quality their work, analyze publication relationships, respectively.ResultsMARV is mainly prevalent Africa. And approximately 643 confirmed cases described date, 81.2% overall patients. A total 1014 papers comprising 869 articles 145 reviews included. The annual publications showed an growth pattern (R2=0.8838). United States stands at forefront discipline, having dedicated substantial financial human resources scientific inquiry. However, co-authorship international collaboration needs be further strengthened. Based reference keywords analysis, contemporary encompasses pivotal areas: primarily, prioritizing creation prophylactic vaccines impede viral spread, secondarily, exploring targeted antiviral strategies, small-molecule antivirals or MARV-specific monoclonal antibodies. Additionally, comprehensive grasp transmission, transcription, replication mechanisms remains central focus ongoing investigations. future studies are expected evaluating clinical trial safety efficacy, developing inhibitors contain vaccine immunogenicity, virus-host association studies, elucidating role neutralizing antibodies treatment.ConclusionThe present study offered insights into status trajectories over past decades. enables researchers discern novel collaborative prospects, institutional partnerships, emerging topics, forefronts within domain.
