A total of 1331 publications from a dataset of 21,703 articles were included in the analysis. Results: The most common keywords were "disaster", "nursing", "COVID-19", and "emergency preparedness". The USA led in research output, followed by Sichuan University as the top institution. Thearticle, "Disaster preparedness among nurses: a systematic review of literature", was the most cited, with 216 citations. English was the predominant language, and most publications were articles.
