Unveiling the Digital Health Renaissance: Exploring the Surge of Health Literacy through Bibliometric Analysis in Early Detection of Cervical Cancer

Abstract

This research aims to conduct a literature study analysis of 400 scientific journals related to health literacy, digital literacy and cervical cancer from 2004 to 2024. The data collection method uses the Publish or Perish (POP) application and VOS Viewer to identify research trends, relationships between topics -topics, as well as dominant keywords in the literature. The results of the analysis show an increase in researchers' interest in health literacy in the digital era, especially in the context of early detection practices for cervical cancer. The findings highlight the development of digital technology in public health education, the use of social media as an educational tool, and the development of technology-based applications to facilitate early detection of cervical cancer. This bibliometric analysis provides in-depth insight into the contribution of research in improving health literacy and supporting the practice of early detection of cervical cancer in the digital era. The implications include the need for more intervention research focused on community empowerment through digital approaches, as well as the development of targeted educational strategies to increase awareness and accessibility of early cervical cancer detection services.
