RESUMO
PURPOSE: This study has been focused on assessing the Open Science scenario of cancer research during the period 2011-2021, in terms of the derived scientific publications and raw data dissemination. METHODS: A cancer search equation was executed in the Science Citation Index-Expanded, collecting the papers signed by at least one Spanish institution. The same search strategy was performed in the Data Citation Index to describe dataset diffusion. RESULTS: 50,822 papers were recovered, 71% of which belong to first and second quartile journals. 59% of the articles were published in Open Access (OA) journals. The Open Access model and international collaboration positively conditioned the number of citations received. Among the most productive journals stood out Plos One, Cancers, and Clinical and Translational Oncology. 2693 genomics, proteomics and metabolomics datasets were retrieved, being Gene Expression Omnibus the favoured repository. CONCLUSIONS: There has been an increase in oncology publications in Open Access. Most were published in first quartile journals and received higher citations than non-Open Access articles, as well as when oncological investigation was performed between international research teams, being relevant in the context of Open Science. Genetic repositories have been the preferred for sharing oncology datasets. Further investigation of research and data sharing in oncology is needed, supported by stronger Open Science policies, to achieve better data sharing practices among three scientific main pillars: researchers, publishers, and scientific organizations.

Antecedentes La colaboración entre investigadores tiene una gran importancia, pues permite compartir conocimiento, garantiza la mejora de los métodos empleados y de los resultados obtenidos y, en definitiva, consolida el quehacer científico. Este estudio tiene como objetivo analizar las redes de colaboración en drogodependencias entre países latinoamericanos y de la Unión Europea, aplicando metodologías procedentes de la bibliometría y del análisis de redes sociales. Métodos Las bases de datos consultadas fueron Science Citation Index Expanded y Social Sciences Citation Index de la ISI Web of Science (WOS). Se utilizaron ecuaciones de búsqueda específicas en drogodependencias basadas en estudios previos. Los resultados de las búsquedas se depuraron con la exclusión de artículos correspondientes a categorías WOS que no eran propiamente sanitarias, así como los que no abordaban directamente aspectos biopsicosociales de drogodependencias. Se identificaron 228 artículos colaborativos durante la década 2001 y 2010. Resultados El país europeo con mayor cantidad de artículos de colaboración fue España (n=69) y Brasil el latinoamericano (n=73). Estados Unidos tuvo un papel muy activo en las redes de colaboración, participando en 85 artículos. La institución y el autor más productivo correspondieron a México. La colaboración entre América Latina y la Unión Europa se ha incrementado desde 2001 (n=4) a 2010 (n=50). El análisis mostró que la colaboración fue mayor entre España y Brasil (n=27), así como entre España y Colombia (n=23). Conclusiones En la última década se ha observado un incremento significativo de la colaboración científica entre los países latinoamericanos y europeos en drogodependencias, entre los que sobresalen Brasil y México, por un lado, y España e Italia por el otro. Destaca el papel de liderazgo de los Estados Unidos en las redes internacionales de investigación identificadas, ocupando un papel de intermediación en la colaboración entre diferentes países y continentes.
Background The importance of collaboration among research groups in the drug abuse field has been increasingly reinforced. These collaborations consolidate the scientific activity and guarantee the improvement of methods and outcomes. This study aims at analyzing the collaboration networks on drug abuse between Latin American and European countries by means of applying bibliometric methods and collaboration networks analysis. Methods The search was conducted through the Science Citation Index Expanded and Social Sciences Citation Index from ISI Web of Science data base. A total of 228 articles were found by using a specific drug abuse search strategy during the period 2001-2010. Articles belonging to WOS categories non-related to health sciences were excluded. Results The European country with the higher amount of collaborative articles was Spain (n=69) and Brazil was the Latin American country (n=73). United States of America had an active role in the collaboration networks (n=85). The most productive institution and author were from Mexico. The collaborative work between Latin America and Europe has increased from 2001 (n=4) to 2010 (n=50). The collaboration networks analysis showed that Spain and Brazil (n=27) as well as Spain and Colombia (n=23) were the countries with the highest joint production. Conclusions The last decade has seen a significant increase in the scientific collaboration between Latin American and European in drug addiction studies, where Brazil and Mexico stand out in Latin American countries, as well as Spain and Italy in Europe. The role of the United States leadership in international research networks is emphazided and identified, occupying an intermediary role in the collaboration between different countries and continents.
