The study aimed to perform the content analysis of 30 articles found in the bibliographic coupling referring to technological advances in the international literature based on Web of Science in the year 2020, through the use of the Vosviewer software. It should be noted that this article is a continuation of an infometric published in Research, Society and Development, in 2021, making only a clipping here which was called “Bibliographic Coupling”. The article has characteristics of exploratory, documentary and qualitative research. The analysis and description of 30 items/articles found in 7 Clusters were carried out. The study highlights the importance of information for the progress of societies worldwide. It is noteworthy from the reading of the 30 articles found in this bibliographic coupling that the advancement of technology has helped to find better techniques for achieving success in a given situation, whether in the medical, hospital, business areas, among others. The greater the number of references in common, the greater the strength of connection/links between the two articles, evidencing the intensity of the coupling of these two articles. Through the analysis of each article, the intention was achieved to understand the meanings and senses of the messages, which went beyond a common reading, elucidating in such a rich way the social phenomenon studied. With the use of a VOSViewer software, an improvement in the process of disclosure and transparency of the information found in the articles was obtained. Thus, rapid adaptations were achieved, as well as the time of analysis of articles and open data control in effective reproduction.
