Abstract:

In order to capture the evolving landscape of research on emergency-synergy in public health emergencies and systematically synthesize key studies and their characteristics in this domain, this study employed the scientific knowledge mapping tool CiteSpace to conduct a visual analysis of relevant literature from the past decade. Data were retrieved from core collections of China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)and Web of Science(WOS). Concurrently, existing research findings were systematically examined across five dimensions: synergistic models, mechanisms, subjects, decision-making processes, and model construction. The results indicate that research output on emergency-synergy in public health emergencies grew steadily alongside the progression of Corona Virus Disease 2019(COVID-19) pandemic, with a subsequent decline as the pandemic subsided. Overall publication volume in this field remains modest: the retrieval yielded 121 academic papers, 306 master's and doctoral theses, and 54 foreign-language documents. Research focus is predominantly concentrated in areas such as emergency management, collaboration mechanisms, and multi-stakeholder synergy. The analysis further reveals that evolutionary game theory and dynamic disease transmission theory have gained significant traction among researchers in modeling emergency-synergy. The synergistic mechanism featuring "government leadership, multi-party participation, and clear division of responsibilities" has garnered widespread recognition within the academic community. Nevertheless, challenges persist regarding the practical implementation of multi-subject emergency synergy under government leadership, warranting further in-depth investigation. It is projected that future research will advance toward theoretical refinement of emergency-synergy governance models and the diversification of synergistic subjects.
