Environmental sciences and concepts have evolved a great deal in the last three decades. This study aims to account for the way environmental concepts have changed and to describe the conse- quences for the concept of agroforestry. The study is based on a bibliometric ana- lysis carried out on the Web of Science, and summarizes the literature collected on the subject. Examples are given to support the analysis: agroforestry-based coffee-growing in the Western Ghats in India, cocoa in Ivory Coast and jungle rubber in Indonesia. Agroforestry evol- ved considerably with the emergence of the biodiversity and ecosystem concepts, and conservation science now also covers ecosystems that have been modi- fied by humans. The development of agroforestry can be compared with that of agroecology: a study on the Web of Science shows a similar pattern in the last two decades. Although the recognition of agroecology as a science has introduced new ways of managing agroforestry sys- tems, the way agroforestry has deve- loped and its broad scope of application may have disconnected it somewhat from reality on the ground and from the far- mers who actually practice it. Precautions are therefore needed in designing and managing these systems: farmers’ expec- tations, in contexts that are determined at once by social, economic and political factors, must not be ignored, and agrofo- restry systems should not be exclusively geared to productivity. Agroforestry can- not evolve as an environmental concept if it is voided of its most fundamental goal, which is to bring sustainable improve- ments to farming livelihoods.

    O plágio é um problema endémico na sociedade contemporânea, está presente nos vários quadrantes da comunidade e a pesquisa científica não representa nenhuma exceção. No campo da investigação desportiva, o número de más praticas tem aumentado gradualmente, contrariando todos os pressupostos éticos. Desenvolveram-se um alargado número de atividades em instituições e países de forma a contrariar o fenómeno, contudo o problema prevalece, dentro e fora da ciência, na academia, por parte de alunos e de investigadores. O objetivo do presente estudo foi elaborar uma revisão de literatura acerca do plágio na investigação em Ciências do Desporto que permita fornecer um conjunto de reflexões sobre a forma como se pode combater tal problema. A revisão de literatura foi realizada recorrendo às bases de dados Web of Science, SCOPUS, MEDLINE/PubMed e Google Académico, e concluída ao longo do mês de Outubro de 2020, os estudos analisados estão compreendidos entre os anos de 1999 e 2020. O plágio foi apontado como razão principal para as retratações nas revistas de ciências do desporto. A falta de formação e o desejo de obter currículos brilhantes são percebidas como razões que leva a prática de más condutas. O plágio na investigação científica, nos dias que correm, é uma realidade preocupante, desta forma, é preciso tentar mitigar o fenómeno, principalmente na área das ciências do desporto uma área com pouca tradição.  Abstract. Plagiarism is an endemic problem in contemporary society, it is present in the various fields of the community and scientific research is no exception. In the field of sports research, the number of bad practices has gradually increased, contrary to all ethical assumptions. A large number of activities have been developed in institutions and countries in order to counter the phenomenon, however, the problem prevails, inside and outside science, in academia, by students and researchers. The aim of the present study was to develop a literature review about plagiarism, the problems that the subject raises in scientific research in the area of sports sciences and the way in which it can be fought. Different databases were consulted, such as the Web of Science, SCOPUS, MEDLINE/PubMed and Google Scholar. The literature review and analysis were carried out and completed during October 2020. Plagiarism was cited as the main reason for retractions in sports science magazines. The lack of training and the desire to obtain excellent curricula are perceived as reasons that lead to the practice of misconduct. Plagiarism in scientific research, nowadays, is a worrying reality, so it is necessary to try to mitigate the phenomenon, especially in the area of sports sciences, an area with little tradition. Resumen. El plagio es un problema endémico en la sociedad contemporánea, está presente en los distintos sectores de la comunidad y la investigación científica no es una excepción.

Oxidative stress is considered one of the possible mechanisms behind chemobrain or the cognitive dysfunction persistent after chemotherapy treatment. Breast cancer patients have reported chemobrain symptoms since the 1990s. In this present bibliometric review, we employed the VOSviewer tool to describe the existing landscape on literature concerning oxidative stress, breast cancer chemotherapies, and chemobrain. As of 2019, 8799 papers were listed in the Web of Science database, with more than 900 papers published each year. As expected, terms relating to oxidative stress, mitochondria, breast cancer, and antioxidants have occurred very often in the literature throughout the years. In recent years, there has been an increase in the occurrence of terms related to nanomedicine. Only within the last decade do the keywords ‘brain’, ‘blood-brain barrier’, and ‘central nervous system’ appear, reflecting an increased interest in chemobrain. China has become the most prolific producer of oxidative stress and chemotherapy related papers in the last decade followed by the USA and India. In conclusion, the subject of oxidative stress as a mechanism behind chemotherapies’ toxicities is an active area of research.

In the leather industry, a production process that is the subject of many different disciplines is dominant. Many studies on these branches of science have examined the sector in detail in terms of production. On the other hand, studies dealing with the sector in terms of business administration department and sub-disciplines are not common. In this study, academic publications examining the relationship between the leather industry and the business administration department are the subjects. 98 scientific studies obtained after the search in the Web of Science database were examined in terms of the form of publication, the year of publication, the country where the publication was made and the sub-disciplines of the business department.

Purpose Diversity is one of the main characteristics of modern societies. To be teachers and trainers, it is necessary to use all the tools to respond to students with diversified needs. Therefore, the main aim of this study is to review the scientific production in Web of Science (WOS) and SCOPUS of 1996-2019 on the application of Virtual reality in people with Autism Spectrum Disoders (ASD) for the improvement of social skills. Design/methodology/approach For this purpose, two databases have been used: The Web of Science (WOS) and SCOPUS from the advanced search tab. After applying the search terms, 267 documents were obtained which were analysed according to a series of indicators. Findings The results indicate that the period 2016-2019 was the most productive and that SCOPUS has a focus on conferences and WOS is intended for journals. Furthermore, in SCOPUS, there are journals with higher quartiles (Q1) than in WOS. The study shows the great importance of virtual reality in people with ASD and its recent dissemination. Originality/value Currently, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, there are no studies on the use of virtual reality in people with ASD using bibliometric indicators. The study allows us to know which databases publish higher quality research. Likewise, information can be obtained about the most productive centres and the most important authors on the subject.

Do So

Sustainable education is currently booming in the teaching and learning processes, although it is not without complexity, due to its various dimensions and the evolution it has undergone to date. The objective of this research is to establish a mapping and scientific evolution of the term “sustainability” in education in the Web of Science database. To do so, a bibliometrical method has been applied, through the analysis of the performance of the scientific production and the evolution of the structure and dynamism of sustainability in education, by means of an analysis of co-words. The total number of references analyzed, after following a debugging process, was 9441. The results show the boom of sustainability in education in recent times, with a great impact on research related to attitudes and sustainability. It can be concluded that a large part of the studies analyzed are of a descriptive nature, with a decrease in the number of exploratory studies, which can give a holistic vision to the subject matter presented, especially regarding the development of the curriculum and the teaching-learning process.

Research Question: RQ1: What is fraud? RQ2: Where do we find fraud? It is fraud a multidisciplinary element? Why? Motivation: Most of the literature states that fraud is a topic of great interest, but no one has tried to prove why, but also to show how much interest in publishing about the subject of fraud has increased. Idea: Our study looked at an  international database (Web of Science) to demonstrate the growing interest in studying fraud  in various fields. But we also did a case study presenting a complex case of fraud, discovered by DGAF in Romania. Data: The data were collected from Web of  Science database and an analysis was made based on the 17,825 results found when searching for the word "fraud", and then we also did a case study presenting a complex case of fraud, discovered by DGAF in Romania, collecting data by direct observation of one of the authors. Tools: To test study’s hypotheses, we analyzed the Web of Science database. Findings: The results answer in the affirmative to the research question. Also, the implications of the results are that all actors can outline an overview of the phenomenon, but especially reveals the gaps in the discovery of the phenomenon. Contribution: Most of the literature states that fraud is a topic of great interest, but no one has tried to prove why, but also to show how much interest in publishing about the subject of fraud has increased.
