Although research on chemical burns has expanded over the past century, no comprehensive study has mapped the intellectual structure, global collaboration patterns, and thematic evolution of scientific production on chemical burns to determine how research in the area has evolved and the existence of gaps or imbalances that need to be addressed.<h4>Objective</h4>The aim was to analyze the scientific production on chemical burns using bibliometric methods, identifying key contributors, evolving themes, and research gaps.<h4>Methods</h4>Eligible documents contained the MeSH descriptor and were listed both in PubMed (1946 to 20European burn journal51https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC12452322biostudies-literatureScientific Production on Chemical Burns: A Bibliometric Analysis (1946-2024).PMC12452322Cueva-Ramirez JEGonzalez-Alcaide GBelinchon-Romero IRamos-Rincon JMfalseScientific Production on Chemical Burns: A Bibliometric Analysis (1946-2024).<h4>Background</h4>Chemical burns represent a persistent global health challenge due to their high prevalence, causing lifelong disabilities and socioeconomic burdens.
