Abstract:
The main objective of the study is to analyse the scientific evolution of the research field of fibromyalgia and biomechanics. A search was carried out in Web of Science, from 1985 to 2021. With those results, a bibliometric map of keywords was created with VOSviewer. On top of that, scientific mapping and performance analysis were also conducted using SciMAT. A total of 233 articles from around the world were analysed, highlighting the production of the USA and Spain. The results show great diversity in topics with 54 different topics and 33 keywords. Although most of the topics found are not widely developed except the topics of physical activity and symptomatology. In conclusion, the study of fibromyalgia and biomechanics has generally grown over time.
