ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Chile has one of the highest prevalences of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) in Latin America. Therefore, it is relevant to conduct a scientific analysis to identify national scientific productivity in this field objectively and determine if the research efforts are directed toward clinical priorities. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
A systematic review of research conducted on DM in Chile was designed. Scientific evidence from the years 2010 to 2022 was considered. The scientific search was conducted in four databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, and Scielo) and guided by the PRISMA statement (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) executed through the COVIDENCE® platform.RESULTS:
Out of the 1,953 articles identified in the bibliographic search, 1,542 were discarded. After full-text analysis, 411 articles were obtained involving over 75,000 subjects. The articles were categorized into fourteen themes. The total scientific productivity showed a constant increase between 2010 and 2016 and an exponential increase between 2017-2022. However, there is a downward trend in the years 2021-2022. The international and national prevalence explains the number of studies associated with type 2 diabetes (DM2), followed by gestational and type 1 diabetes. When analyzing the complications of DM in Chile, its prevalence is not reflected in the number of articles published for each.CONCLUSIONS:
These results highlight the need to promote research in academic and/or clinical institutions, emphasizing reducing the incidence of DM2 due to the low number of articles with this type of design and the more prevalent complications.
