Bibliometric analysis for the identification of main limitations and future directions of vaccines for the control of ticks and tick-borne pathogens in Uganda.

Ticks and tick-borne diseases (TBD) are a growing threat for human and animal health worldwide with high incidence in African countries such as Uganda where it affects cattle health and production. Considering recent advances in bibliometric analysis, in this review we used a bibliometric descriptiv...
