Figure 1:
Figure 1:
Number of Research Works* About Older Adults from 1993 to 2022. Bibliographic data used to create the figure were extracted from the Scopus database with targeted queries and adjacency search techniques as described below (Supplementary File S1), then plotted using Python 3 and seaborn (Supplementary File S2). Additional details are provided in Appendices 1 and 2. The blue line represents the total number of research works about older adults in the thirty-year sample and includes works tagged in the publication’s title, abstract, or keyword fields as about geriatrics or older adults, including more than a dozen synonyms for these terms. Within the total, the green dotted line represents works tagged as systematic reviews or scoping reviews, and the orange dashed line represents works tagged as data-intensive research, using terms such as: data, datasets, data bank, data mining, metadata, data analysis, or statistical methods used in data analysis. *Works refer to the citation records contained in the Scopus database and can include journal articles, abstract reports, books, book chapters, business articles, conference papers, conference reviews, data papers, editorials, erratum, letters, multimedia, notes, press releases, reports, retractions, reviews, and short surveys.
