Integral analysis of brazilian scientific production in orofacial myology: state the of art and future perspectives

ABSTRACT A complete review of Brazilian scientific articles on orofacial myology (OM) published in the last 10 years was conducted to describe, categorize and quantitatively analyze studies in the field of OM. Data were collected from all Brazilian journals on speech-language and hearing sciences published between 2005 and 2015. All articles were reviewed and categorized according to the year of publication, type of article and subject area. Furthermore, all studies conducted on humans that reported quantitative data were analyzed regarding age group, scope, main objective and type of study. The data were discussed from the standpoint of scientific methodology applied for the improvement of methods and for evidence-based scientific development. Moreover, aspects to be considered in future studies in this field are suggested.摘要 本研究对近10年发表的巴西口面肌学（orofacial myology，OM）领域学术论文开展全面综述，旨在对该领域的相关研究进行描述、分类与定量分析。研究数据采集自2005年至2015年间出版的所有巴西言语语言与听力学相关期刊。所有纳入的论文均依据发表年份、论文类型及研究主题领域进行审阅与分类。此外，本研究还针对所有开展于人体且包含定量数据的研究，从年龄分组、研究范围、核心目标及研究类型四个维度展开分析。本研究从科学方法论视角对所得数据进行讨论，旨在优化研究方法并推动该领域循证科学发展。此外，本研究还提出了该领域未来研究需关注的若干方向。
