Research on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in Malaysia: a bibliometric analysis
Background: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most common analgesics used for pain relief. Adverse effects of NSAIDs range from gastrointestinal tract disturbances to increased risk of bleeding, renal injury,and myocardial infarction. In Malaysia, the research productivity of NS...

Materials and Methods: This bibliometric study included all published research articles on NSAIDs from 1979 to 2018, which were conducted in Malaysia.
