“…Therefore, using "primary angle-closure" as the search topic can accurately target all relevant publications regarding to PACD. Previous bibliometric analysis have focused on glaucoma [21][22][23] , POAG [31] , application of stem cells in glaucoma [32] . As far as we know, this is the first bibliometric analysis regarding to PACD.…”

AIM: To perform a bibliometric analysis in the field of primary angle-closure disease (PACD) research to characterize current global trends and compare contributions from different countries, institutions, journals, and authors. METHODS: All PACD-related publications from 1991 to 2022 from the Web of Science Core Collection database were extracted. Microsoft Excel and VOSviewer were used to collect publication data, analyze publication trends, and visualize relevant results. RESULTS: A total of 1721 publications with 34 591 citations were identified. China produced the most publications (554) while ranking third in citations (8220 times). The United States contributed the most citations (12 315 times) with publications (362) ranking second. The Investigative Ophthalmology Visual Science was the most productive journal concerning PACD, and Aung Tin was the author with the highest number of publications in the field. Keywords were classified into three clusters, epidemiology and pathogenesis research, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and other imaging examinations, and glaucoma surgery treatment. Genome-wide association, susceptibility loci, OCT, and combined phacoemulsification have become new hot research topics in recent years since 2015. CONCLUSION: China, the United States, and Singapore make the most outstanding contributions in the field of PACD research. OCT, combined phacoemulsification, and gene mutation-related study, are considered the potential focus for future research.

“…Compared to a review in general, bibliometric analysis is a mathematically and statistically feasible discipline to summarize and predict current and future research hotspots and trends by evaluating specific research areas based on main authors, research institutes, journals, citation frequency, keywords, etc (Hu et al, 2022 ; Zhang et al, 2022 ). CiteSpace and VOSviewer are two common and important bibliometric analysis software (Chen et al, 2022a ; Zhang et al, 2022 ; Zhao et al, 2022 ). By using them alone or in combination, we obtain a better analysis of research trends and hotspots according to different specifications (Romero and Portillo-Salido, 2019 ; Zhao et al, 2022 ).…”

BackgroundGlaucoma is the first irreversible and second blindness disease, which is characterized by the death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and degeneration of the optic nerve. Previous works have indicated that apoptosis is the main reason for RGC death in glaucoma. Although many studies have investigated the mechanism of apoptosis and different strategies targeting apoptosis to protect the RGCs and finally recover the impaired vision in the glaucoma. However, the global trend and hotspots of apoptosis in glaucoma have not been well illustrated and discussed.MethodsDocuments were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection on November 2, 2022. We selected articles and reviews published in English from January 1, 1999 to November 1, 2022 to perform visual analysis and statistical analysis of countries, institutions, authors, references and keywords by VOSviewer 1.6.18 and CiteSpace 5.8.ResultsThe publications about apoptosis in glaucoma show an increasing trend over time. Besides, the authors, institutions in the US and China published the most numbers of articles with the highest citation, which may be leading the research in the field of apoptosis in glaucoma. Last, series of advanced research results, technology and treatment for glaucoma, such as the discovery of key regulatory mechanisms on RGC apoptosis are emerging and will provide precise strategies for the treatment of glaucoma.ConclusionThis research will broaden our comprehension about the role of apoptosis in the process of glaucoma, and provide guidelines for us in basic research and disease treatment in the further.

“…A plethora of targeted bibliometric analyses of the ophthalmic literature has been published over the past 2 decades, facilitated by the availability of large databases of scientific literature, powerful search engines, and sophisticated bibliometric analysis software . Bibliometric analyses of the ophthalmic literature include investigations of specific eye care subdisciplines, such as keratoconus, glaucoma, dry eye, contact lenses, and refractive error; citation metrics of individual journals and authors; bibliometric analysis of specific countries; and the association of COVID-19 with publication metrics …”

ImportanceThe primary vehicle for reporting and testing advances in eye care is refereed ophthalmic journals, which can be characterized using targeted bibliometric analyses.ObjectiveTo identify all ophthalmic journals and evaluate citation metrics relating to articles, journals, authors, institutions, and countries published therein.Design and SettingA bibliometric analysis was undertaken of all ophthalmic journals included in the Scopus database (Elsevier). The search was restricted to all article types published in ophthalmic journals in English from inception through November 18, 2022. After excluding general medical journals, journals published in a language other than English, and spurious titles unrelated to the ophthalmic field, the Scopus database was found to list 335 ophthalmic journal titles that have published 471 184 articles, constituting the data set for this analysis. The 20 most highly cited articles were identified. Rank-order lists by article count were assembled for journals, authors, institutions, and countries.Main Outcomes and MeasuresAn h-index for ophthalmic journal articles was derived from citations and article counts for each constituent of each category.ResultsThe h-index for ophthalmic journal articles was determined to be 494. The journal with the highest h-index was Ophthalmology (h-index, 297). The journal with the greatest number of articles was American Journal of Ophthalmology (38 441 articles). The most highly cited article was by Quigley and Broman, 2006 (5147 citations), concerning the epidemiology of glaucoma. The author with the highest h-index for ophthalmic journal articles was Ronald Klein, MD (h-index, 126), and the most prolific was Carol L. Shields, MD (1400 articles). Johns Hopkins University (h-index, 215) was the institution with the highest h-index for ophthalmic journal articles, and Harvard University was the most prolific (10 071 articles). The United States was the nation with the highest h-index for ophthalmic journal articles (h-index, 444) and was the most prolific (180 017 articles).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this study, the most highly cited articles published in ophthalmic journals were revealed, as well as the leading journals, authors, institutions, and countries. While excluding ophthalmology articles in general medical journals, this investigation affords a means of identifying highly cited authors, institutions, and countries which individuals or institutions can use as a guide regarding contributions to the field.
