Sintesi	A bibliometrix-assisted systematic literature review integrates the R package bibliometrix — developed by Aria and Cuccurullo (2017) — into the standard systematic review pipeline to automate and visualize bibliometric performance and science-mapping analyses. It combines the transparency and reproducibility of a protocol-driven systematic search with quantitative tools for tracking publication trends, author collaboration networks, keyword co-occurrence, and thematic evolution across a field.	Bibliometric analysis applies statistical and mathematical methods to bibliographic records — publications, citations, authors, journals, and keywords — to measure and map the structure, output, and intellectual evolution of a research field. It is widely used to identify influential works, prolific authors, productive journals, collaboration networks, and emerging research themes across any academic discipline.
