The SciMAT software was analyze maps due its visualization duplication process, which are thematic areas strategic diagrams. bibliometric methodology comprises four phases: 1. Location topics; 2. Visualization network Findings areas; 4. Performance analysis.
 Results/Discussion. From 2005 2011, diagram indicators identified eighteen related topics. Sixteen topics were from 2012 2016. Finally, 2017 2020, fourteen identified.
