| Résumé : |
Introduction: The rise of infectious diseases is increasing in frequency over time. Understanding the seasonal patterns of pathogen ecology is crucial for mitigating their impact on humans and ecosystems. Mycobacterium species play a significant role in public health, agriculture, and ecology. Investigating their seasonal dynamics requires interdisciplinary efforts. This study, conducted within a major project on Mycobacterium ulcerans transmission dynamics, aims to synthesize existing scientific knowledge on the seasonality of mycobacterial species.
Methodology: A hybrid approach combining bibliometric analysis and systematic review is used to examine the research structure. A diverse set of publications retrieved by the systematic search was analyzed to extract seasonal patterns with mycobacterial transmission dynamics. The analysis includes the study’s main findings on mycobacterial seasonality, the geographical distribution of studies, methodologies employed, citation networks, and author collaborations. This study compares seasonal factors influencing mycobacterial disease ecology and the underlying potential drivers of research between scientific entities. Results: Seasonal factors were well documented and classified on each Mycobacterium specie or category, discussed, and put in contrast with the variety of retrieved literature. Considerations about the methodology and study location were taken. Co-citation and collaboration networks were analyzed on M. tuberculosis and M. ulcerans retrieved publications, and a synthesis of the potential causes or influences on research direction was discussed. Conclusions: Based on the analysis, this study reveals the seasonal factors associated with mycobacterial species and their ecological conditions. It emphasizes the importance of advanced methodological tools for capturing seasonal trends accurately. Additionally, it highlights the interdisciplinary nature of M. ulcerans research, emphasizing the necessity of collaboration across different fields. The study also underscores the significance of strong regional networks in addressing major public health concerns, such as the transmission dynamics of M. tuberculosis. |
