Background: For more than 30 years, deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been a therapeutic tool for Parkinson's disease (PD) treatment. DBS can ameliorate several motor and non-motor symptoms and improve the patients' quality of life.
Objectives: To analyze the global scientific production of original and review articles on Parkinson's disease treatment using deep brain stimulation.
Background: A bibliometric analysis covering only the production of original studies or considering world production until 2022 has yet to be conducted. The creation and advancement of vaccines have also influenced research priorities, demonstrating the need for a new approach to this subject.
Objectives: To analyze worldwide scientific production related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the aged and to describe what has already been produced.

This bibliometric analysis aims to analyze the global scientific production of COVID-19 and vaccines. First, a search for scientific articles was performed using the advanced query in the Web of Science™ database, more precisely in its core collection, on 18 February 2023. Data from 7754 articles were analyzed using the Bibliometrix R package and the Biblioshiny application.

Background: Since the beginning of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, studies have shown that this disease has affected the male population on a significant scale in various parts of the world, making men one of the main risk groups.
Objective: To analyze the clinical and epidemiological characteristics and experiences of illness in men with COVID-19.
Design And Setting: A mixed sequential-explanatory study with cross-sectional and exploratory-descriptive approaches.
Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection is a worldwide concern given its presence even in non-hospitalized healthy individuals, such as university students.
Objective: To identify in the literature the prevalence of colonization by MRSA among healthcare students.
Design And Setting: Integrative review of the literature conducted in Universidade Federal do Piauí.
Objective: To identify symptoms of COVID-19 in adults in the scientific literature.
Method: Systematic review of studies published from December 1, 2019 to April 21, 2020 from the Scopus, Web of Science and PubMed databases, in order to answer the following research question: "What are the symptoms caused by COVID-19 in adults?" using the keywords "Symptoms", "Clinical Manifestations", "Coronavirus", "COVID-19".
Results: Of the total 105 references, 13 references that addressed the symptoms of COVID-19 were selected.
Background: The pandemic of the new coronavirus has culminated in a scientific race to seek knowledge about this virus and its treatments, vaccines and preventive strategies, in order to reduce its impact on healthcare and economics worldwide. Hence, it is important to recognize the efforts of researchers who are at the forefront of investigations relating to the new coronavirus.
Objective: The present study was carried out with the aim of analyzing the world scientific production relating to COVID-19.
