Summary
Brazilian nursing postgraduate programs show growing interest in integrative reviews, but their implementation is often undervalued and lacks key methodological elements, impacting scientific rigor.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Research
- Bibliometrics
- Scientific Production Analysis
Background:
- Integrative reviews are increasingly popular in scientific research.
- Understanding their production in Brazilian nursing postgraduate programs is crucial.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the production of scientific integrative reviews in Brazilian nursing postgraduate programs.
- To identify trends and methodological characteristics of these reviews.
Main Methods:
- A bibliometric design was employed.
- Data were collected from the database of dissertations and theses of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel in October 2018.
Main Results:
- 35 dissertations and 1 thesis were identified.
- The University of São Paulo was the leading institution; Mendes, Silveira and Galvão (2008) and Ursi (2005) were key methodological references.
- CINAHL, LILACS, and PubMed were the most utilized databases, with publication periods ranging from 5 to 30 years.
Conclusions:
- Integrative review studies are growing in popularity but remain undervalued in nursing postgraduate programs.
- Shortcomings in methodological implementation were observed, including the omission of essential elements like keywords and exclusion criteria.
