Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurological disease that causes decreased brain function. It is known that the accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques in the brain is one of the causes of AD. The accumulation of Aβ plaques in the brain is a dynamic process; it begins with the growth of amyloid-beta monomers (M1). Furthermore, amyloid-beta dimers (M2) and so on, so that this collected into oligomers (O), fibrils (P), and plaques in the brain. This disrupts the communication pathways between nerve cells. In this study, each process of amyloid-beta plaque accumulation is presented with a mathematical model in the form of an ordinary differential equation. Therefore, the coupled ordinary differential equations are given for the entire process of Aβ plaque accumulation. In this study, this coupled model is calculated using numerical methods, such as the Euler and fourth-order Runge-Kutta methods. The Euler methods is simple and efficient, but its accuracy is low and can accumulate errors with larger step sizes. The fourth-order Runge-Kutta methods offers higher accuracy, better numerical stability, and greater control over the accuracy of the solution. These two numerical methods have never been compared for estimating numerical solutions of coupled ordinary differential equations.

Abstract

The exponential increase in carbonaceous-based research has prompted the scientific community to apply it to numerous value-added applications. This paper aimed to systematically analyze the comprehensive contributions clusters of publications per year, country, institution, authors, and keywords-wise by using a quantitative review technique called bibliometric analysis. The data was retrieved from the Scopus database to identify the overall scientific trend results with the keyword "carbon dots as a sensor" from 2010 to 2020. The VOSviewer, WordItOut, and Datawrapper are selected as tools for bibliometric analysis and data visualization. In this work, the total citations from the Scopus Core Set and the total citations in the most recent year have only been used for the assessment of highly cited papers. The results showed that after 2014, the number of publications increased significantly with the work related to “carbon dots as sensors.” Thus, comprehensive journals like the Angewandte Chemie - International Edition were the most popular in publishing articles, contributing to almost 6.39% of the research area. The country-wise analysis revealed that China accounted for more than 67.18% of the articles published, followed by the United States and India, comprising 6.24% and 6.13%, respectively. Lastly, keyword cluster analysis revealed five major research hotspots for future discussion. Thus, this analysis provides an important starting point for further studies on research concerning the direction of "carbon dots as a sensor" for positive development in the research area.
