Background Lung transplantation (LT) has recently emerged as a scientifically validated curative therapeutic modality for patients afflicted with end-stage lung disease. This study aimed to conduct a global bibliometric analysis of research articles on LT between 1983 and 2021. Methods Employing the Web of Science database, a bibliometric analysis was conducted to assess the expansion of scientific output within the field of LT. We searched specific bibliometric characteristics such as language, and year of publication, first author, institutional affiliation, main publishing journals, and highly cited articles. Additionally, we made comparisons of the most productive countries. The VOSviewer program and the open-source visualization software Biblioshiny (version 2.0) were used to perform the bibliometric analysis. Results We identified 10,467 articles on LT published between 1983 and 2021, of which 94.898% were published in the Science Citation Index Expanded. The articles were from 101 different research areas. The publications were from 81 different countries globally, and mostly from the United States (41.196%), Germany (7.118%), and Canada (6.372%). The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation was the most published journal. Four thousand seven hundred and ninety three of the publications were published in the last 10 years with a 78,781 citation number in total. The highest number of publications and citations was in 2021. Conclusion The majority of cutting-edge research findings are focused on only a few developed nations, and exchanges with emerging nations are still in their infancy. The United States has a strong, commanding position among the active countries in LT.

“…Although there are bibliometric analyses on various organ transplants, no similar publication on bone marrow transplantation was found in the literature (6-10). Two similar bibliometric analyses analyzing publications on organ transplantation in Turkey on liver transplantation (11) and heart transplantation (12) were recently published. Also, bibliometric studies on bone marrow transplantation are very limited in the existing literature (13,14).…”

Aim: Scientific publications serve as indicators of global interest and activity in research. The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics of the scientific literature on bone marrow transplantation in Turkey between 1990 and 2022. Material and Methods: In this bibliometric study, we searched the Web of Science database for all biomedical articles published between 1990 and 2022. MESH terms related to "Bone marrow transplantation" were used as the search keyword. The search was then narrowed by selecting Turkey as the country of publication. All data were transferred from the relevant database to Vosviewer and biblioshiny programs and analyzed. Results: A total of 121 countries contributed to the bone marrow transplant literature with 41,236 publications. Turkey ranked 13th with 913 publications (2.214%). and 402 articles by 2991 authors from Turkey. This corresponded to 0.305 publications per author. These publications received 6.183 citations per publication. After 2014, the number of publications increased. Most articles (n=123) were published in 2015. In 2016, the number of publications decreased by almost half after the first peak and did not fall below 50 publications/per year in the following years. Ankara University (n=207), Hacettepe University (n=166), Gazi University (n=95), Erciyes University (n=82), and Akdeniz University (n=79) were the institutions that published the most publications on bone marrow transplantation. Conclusion: Bone marrow transplantation appears to be of interest to Turkish researchers; however, not to the expected level. Turkey continues to lag behind other countries in this field despite an increase in research activity pertaining to bone marrow transplants in recent years.

“…[1,8] Although a quantitative overview can be performed using a variety of techniques, including traditional reviews, systematic reviews, main path analyses, and evidence maps, only bibliometrics allow us to simultaneously assess the knowledge base and popular research topics while qualitatively and quantitatively analyzing the contributions and collaboration of authors, institutions, countries, and journals. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Numerous research papers on this subject have been published owing to the recent rapid advancements in medical science and technology on chondrosarcoma in the last 30 years. As a result, it is crucial to comprehend and obtain knowledge from fresh developments and trends in chondrosarcoma development.…”

Background: A thorough bibliometric analysis of publications published in the field of chondrosarcoma research has not yet been performed using the Web of Science database, especially for publications published between 1993 and 2023. This study, with a focus on the fields of orthopedics, surgery, and oncology, aims to fill this knowledge gap by providing a thorough analysis of current knowledge in the field of chondrosarcoma. Methods: In this bibliometric study, a literature search was performed using the Web of Science database to find all publications on chondrosarcoma. A bibliometric software program was used for data visualization and analysis (opensource visualization application, Vosviewer). The Web of Science Core Collection data used for this retrospective bibliometric study, which covers the period from January 1993 to September 2023, revealed interesting trends in chondrosarcoma research. Results: As the most popular fields of study, orthopedics, surgery, and oncology account for a sizable portion of publications. A noteworthy increase in research output from 2014 to 2023, accounting for 41.74% of the papers, reflects the thriving research environment. The leading countries for publication were China, Japan, and the United States, demonstrating cross-border cooperation in chondrosarcoma research. Their contributions were highlighted by their important affiliations with institutions such as Harvard University, Leiden University, and China Medical University Taiwan. A thorough keyword mapping analysis also highlighted research priorities and encouraged interdisciplinary cooperation. The field’s scholarly importance and ongoing relevance are highlighted by the study’s high citation count (30,076) and highly cited articles. Conclusion: Overall, this study offers crucial insights into the development and collaborative nature of the chondrosarcoma research landscape and its long-lasting influence on academic research and clinical practice.
