Bibliometric and Geographical Analysis of Cell Death Related Literature

Natural language processing continues to gain importance in a thriving scientific community that communicates its latest results in such a frequency that following up on the most recent developments even in a specific field cannot be managed by human readers alone. Here we summarize and compare the publishing activity of the previous years on a distinct topic across several countries, addressing not only publishing frequency and history, but also stylistic characteristics that are accessible by means of natural language processing. Though there are no profound differences in the sentence lengths or lexical diversity among different countries, writing styles approached by Part-Of-Speech tagging are similar among countries that share history or official language or those are spatially close.
