The results of 123 articles confirm a substantial increase of studies since 2011, and some limitations of scientific dissemination. Although almost half of the authors were based in Brazil (40%), 17 base countries were counted. This work complements the latest studies on the object of study in English (Thelen, 2021) and provides the scientific community with recognition and access to native production.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Public relationsLatin AmericaBibliometric analysisScientific disseminationinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article10.1016/j.pubrev.2023.102383info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
