A bibliometric analysis explored the understanding of the "One Health" and "zoonosis" concepts among Turkish researchers and identified existing gaps. The analysis examined trends in research on "One Health," "zoonosis," and "zoonoses," focusing on publications from Tiirkiye and globally. Data from Scopus were analyzed using VOSviewer and RStudio software. The results showed that research interest in these concepts has grown in Tiirkiye since the 2000s. However, the number of articles from Tiirkiye remains low compared to developed countries. The interdisciplinary nature of "One Health" and "zoonosis" research in Tiirkiye reflects contributions from various academic fields. Medical sciences lead in research, followed by immunology and veterinary sciences. In Tiirkiye, "One Health" is predominantly associated with animals, especially felines, and zoonotic pathogens such as Toxoplasma, Anthrax, and Echinococcus. It also relates to epidemiology, infectious diseases, and antibiotic resistance. Globally, "One Health" has a broader perspective, encompassing environmental health, education, veterinary medicine, and food safety. Regarding "zoonosis," Tiirkiye focuses on pathogens such as Anthrax, Echinococcus, Brucella, Leishmania, and Hantavirus. Globally, additional pathogens such as Rickettsia, Taenia solium, and Giardia are included. "Zoonosis" is also linked to climate change, animal welfare, and vector-and food-borne diseases. Despite increased interest, Tiirkiye's scientific production remains limited. Emphasis on interdisciplinary collaboration and broader conceptual frameworks could enhance understanding and research impact.
