COVID-19 is an emerging, rapidly evolving situation, and scientists all around the world are focused on finding and developing treatments for this infection. Their efforts have led to a number of scientific publications since the start of the coronavirus outbreak, which was declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization; 147,535 scientific articles have been published (as indexed in PubMed on June 22, 2020). This was considered by Science as “one of the greatest explosions of scientific literature of all time.”[1] In part, this event reflects editors' efforts to reduce the peer review time and increase the speed of publications, without affecting the quality of research.[1] [2]

This article aims to analyze and map the articles regarding COVID-19 published in the journal International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology (IAO) from a bibliometric perspective.
