The biggest players among nations are evident in all three of the nation listings. The US is on top by cites and by papers, due to the large presence of US-based researchers and institutions in the rankings.
The presence of India, Sweden, Germany, Bangladesh, South Korea, Japan, France, Australia, Denmark, and England can be similarly attributed to the numerous heavy cites coming to their institutions and researchers.
Other nations that have a strong research tradition, such as Canada, Italy, Spain, Norway, Scotland, Israel, and the Peoples Republic of China, are also involved in cholera research as this list shows.

Overall General Information
Top 20 Scientists, Institutions, Journals, & Nations
Citation tables allow us to map compelling trends:
- Are there particular nations or institutions that might be expected to dominate research in the Topic area, and do the numbers bear out these expectations, or are there surprises?
- Who are the leading scientists and where are they located?
While these tables cannot offer a complete picture, the number of trends and anomalies that can be spotlighted or connected across categories is striking. The tables often lead to renewed perspectives to further explore and validate.
What are Special Topics?
Special Topics, from ScienceWatch.com, is designed to complement Essential Science IndicatorsSM from Clarivate in providing citation analyses and commentary for selected scientific research areas that have experienced notable recent advances or are of special current interest.
