The study examines the trendsin health management services for adolescents with HIV over a specific period across different countries. The Scopus database was utilized for data collection and analysis. The keywords used for the search included "Management of health services among adolescents with HIV". The selection and data collection process involved English language articles published between 2013 and 2023. The Scopus website and VOS Viewer were used as bibliometric analysis tools to analyze the collected data. This analysis included examining the data distribution from the literature in Scopus and visualizing the semantic network of documents. The results of this study provide insights to obtain relevant information on appropriate healthcare service management for adolescents living with HIV; it is recommended to conduct comprehensive literature reviews or initiate further research. Three main aspects should be considered: 1) The top document-producing countries, namely the United States, South Africa, and the United Kingdom; 2) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention affiliation, which is a reliable source of information and can serve as a primary reference; and 3) There is still potential for expanding healthcare service management for adolescents living with HIV, particularly in the field of nursing and midwifery.

Keywords: Adolescents; Bibliometric Analysis; Health Management; HIV

Introduction

Bibliometric research effectively highlights areas that emerge in that field (Donthu et al., 2021). Regarding adolescent health, HIV has become a worrisome global problem, with infections among adolescents causing significant negative impacts on their well-being (Bhana et al., 2020; Gabbidon et al., 2020; Karim & Baxter, 2019). This situation calls for serious efforts to manage and prevent HIV among adolescents due to its wide-ranging implications for their quality of life and future.

Unfortunately, in Indonesia, HIV stigma remains widespread, negatively impacting prevention and treatment efforts for HIV among adolescents. The associated stigma creates a significant barrier for adolescents to seek care and get tested for HIV, especially when they know their infection status (Fauk et al., 2021; Waluyo et al., 2022). As a result, many adolescents are hesitant to undergo health screenings that could determine whether they have contracted HIV, fearing discrimination and the attached stigma (Irmayati et al., 2019). Consequently, this leads to low rates of healthcare visits and delays in receiving necessary treatment, hindering effective HIV management and control among adolescents in Indonesia.

The discomfort and fearresulting from HIV-related stigma contribute to low rates of HIV status screenings among adolescents, with significant consequences. Indirectly, this situation increases the risk of uncontrolled HIV transmission among adolescents. The consequences of uncontrolled transmission have serious implications for society, potentially contributing to future increases in HIV cases (Fauk et al., 2021; Irmayati et al., 2019; Waluyo et al., 2022). In this context, the low visitation rates among adolescents for HIV testing worsen the situation, allowing HIV transmission without detecting cases requiring medical attention and appropriate preventive measures.

To address these challenges, various policies and actions focused on managing and providing healthcare services for adolescents living with HIV are necessary. Involving multiple stakeholders, including government institutions, healthcare organizations, educational institutions, and the general public, is crucial in these efforts (Huriati et al., 2021; Manalu & Syakurah, 2022; Ranti et al., 2020). Developing effective policies requires identifying and thoroughly analyzing different models of healthcare service management that already exist for adolescents with HIV.

One scientific method that can be used for this analysis is the bibliometric approach, which involves collecting and analyzing bibliographic data such as scientific publications, articles, and related literature (Donthu et al., 2021). By implementing this approach, we can better understand the latest trends and developments in the management and healthcare services for adolescents with HIV. Bibliometric analysis enables identifying and exploring relevant scientific literature, gathering bibliographic data, and statistically analyzing it to reveal significant research trends and current topics of discussion.

This research aims to analyze and identify various literature on available healthcare service management for adolescents living with HIV using a bibliometric approach. The research will provide new insights and valuable information for the literature search on "Management of health services among adolescents with HIV". Through bibliometric analysis, we understand the latest research trends, credible sources of information, the network of the most productive countries in the research output, and the journal network based on total link strength. The findings of this research serve as a strong foundation for conducting more in-depth literature reviews to obtain information about appropriate healthcare service management foradolescents living with HIV.

Research Methodology

The initial step involved searching the Scopus database, and the retrieved documents were evaluated through a three-phase process, namely: 1) Phase 1, where search criteria were determined to retrieve records from the Scopus database and refine the selected records (data collection phase); 2) Phase 2, where the documents were imported into VOSviewer software to analyze bibliometric aspects such as publications, countries, journals, and research areas (data visualization phase); and 3) Phase 3, which involved analyzing the data to identify the main topics discussed in research related to Early Adolescent Sexual Intercourse. The three phases are illustrated in Figure 1.

Discussion

The query results in the Scopus database have provided valuable insights into the research landscape concerning the "Management of health services among adolescents with HIV." A total of 784 publications were identified, spanning 2013 to 2023. This substantial number of publications indicates a significant interest in understanding and addressing the challenges related to health service management for adolescents with HIV over the past decade (Nkala et al., 2015).

Upon analyzing the publication trendsdepicted in Figure 3, it becomes evident that the research output in this field has experienced distinct phases. The figure portrays a noteworthy upward trajectory in the number of publications over the years, with the pinnacle of this growth occurring in 2019. This surge in publications during 2019 could signify a heightened focus on the topic during that year, possibly due to emerging challenges or advancements in the field (Crowley et al., 2019).

However, what is particularly intriguing is thesubsequent decline in the publication count from the year 2019 onwards. This drop in research output raises questions about the factors contributing to this downward trend. Possible explanations for this decline might include the possibility that researchers have shifted their attention to other pressing topics or that the initial wave of interest led to a saturation of the most immediate research questions, causing a temporary dip in publication activity (Irmayati et al., 2019).

It is important to note that the trend illustrated in Figure 3 is an impetus for further investigation. The declining trend from 2019 onwards indicates a temporary lull in research interest or suggests that the field has reached a level of maturity where fewer groundbreaking findings are being made. Additionally, the drop could range from shifts in funding priorities to changes in the prevalence of adolescent HIV cases (Mutumba et al., 2019).

This descriptive analysis underscores the dynamic nature of research trends and the need for ongoing inquiry to comprehend the underlying factors contributing to these fluctuations. The findings from these publications, particularly during the peak year of 2019, might have played a crucial role in shaping policies and interventions to improve the management of health services for adolescents with HIV. However, the subsequent decline suggests that there is still much to learn and explore in this vital area of healthcare, highlighting thepotential for renewed research interest and fresh perspectives to advance the field further (Karim & Baxter, 2019; Rodriguez et al., 2019).

The trajectory of research publications related to managing health services among adolescents with HIV, as revealed by the Scopus database query, showcases a pattern of growth followed by a decline. This pattern invites researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders to reflect on the factors driving these trends and to recognize the evolving nature of research priorities. Continued efforts in understanding and addressing the challenges faced by adolescents with HIV are crucial for ensuring comprehensive and effective healthcare services for this vulnerable population (Nguyen et al., 2023).
