Nutrition as a scientific field in Croatia: bibliometric analysis of the period 2010 – 2020

The scientific community’s interest in nutrition, i.e., the interaction of human and food consumption, is constantly rising worldwide and in Croatia. The published research results deepen our understanding of the processes involved in the interplay between food consumption and health, as well as different diseases and malfunctions in the human body. This research provides insight into scientific themes and focuses on nutrition research in Croatia. The study aims to provide an overview of the development of nutrition as a scientific field in Croatia from 2010 to 2020 using descriptive bibliometric analysis and science mapping. The analysis was made on a sample of 1173 articles indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoS CC) database. In the analyzed period, nutrition and its impact on people's health, especially on children's health, are the focus of Croatian scientists' research. Furthermore, it can be concluded that the same research trends continue in future research.
