This paper examines the increasing diabetes-related literature in Nigeria, using a bibliometric approach. The National Library of Medicine PubMed was used as the database for this exercise. A bibliometrics technique and Bradford–Zipf distribution were utilised. A list of periodical articles on diabetes in Nigeria published during 1966–2009 was compiled for the study. A total of 512 articles were identified. These articles were published in 57 journals. The 4-yearly distribution of literature indicated clearly that there was a rapid growth of the literature from the year 1986 onwards. The findings indicate that the literature of diabetes in Nigeria is in harmony with the Bradford–Zipf distribution.
