“…First, we only extracted data from the WoSCC to meet the data formatting standards of visualization tools such as CiteSpace and VOSviewer. However, the WoSCC database, as one of the most widely available and recognized global resources, has been used in several previous high-quality bibliometric studies ( 95 , 96 ). Second, this study produced a language and article-type bias as we only selected “English” literature published as “original articles or reviews”.…”

BackgroundThe characteristic symptom of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is respiratory distress, but neurological symptoms are the most frequent extra-pulmonary symptoms. This study aims to explore the current status and hot topics of neurology-related research on COVID-19 using bibliometric analysis.MethodsPublications regarding neurology and COVID-19 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) on March 28 2022. The Advanced search was conducted using “TS = (‘COVID 19’ or ‘Novel Coronavirus 2019’ or ‘Coronavirus disease 2019’ or ‘2019-nCOV’ or ‘SARS-CoV-2’ or ‘coronavirus-2’) and TS = (‘neurology’or ‘neurological’ or ‘nervous system’ or ‘neurodegenerative disease’ or ‘brain’ or ‘cerebra’ or ‘nerve’)”. Microsoft Excel 2010 and VOSviewer were used to characterize the largest contributors, including the authors, journals, institutions, and countries. The hot topics and knowledge network were analyzed by CiteSpace and VOSviewer.ResultsA total of 5,329 publications between 2020 and 2022 were retrieved. The United States, Italy, and the United Kingdom were three key contributors to this field. Harvard Medical School, the Tehran University of Medical Sciences, and the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology were the major institutions with the largest publications. Josef Finsterer from the University of São Paulo (Austria) was the most prolific author. Tom Solomon from the University of Liverpool (UK) was the most cited author. Neurological Sciences and Frontiers in Neurology were the first two most productive journals, while Journal of Neurology held the first in terms of total citations and citations per publication. Cerebrovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, encephalitis and encephalopathy, neuroimmune complications, neurological presentation in children, long COVID and mental health, and telemedicine were the central topics regarding the neurology-related research on COVID-19.ConclusionNeurology-related research on COVID-19 has attracted considerable attention worldwide. Research topics shifted from “morality, autopsy, and telemedicine” in 2020 to various COVID-19-related neurological symptoms in 2021, such as “stroke,” “Alzheimer's disease,” “Parkinson's disease,” “Guillain–Barre syndrome,” “multiple sclerosis,” “seizures in children,” and “long COVID.” “Applications of telemedicine in neurology during COVID-19 pandemic,” “COVID-19-related neurological complications and mechanism,” and “long COVID” require further study.

BackgroundThis study aimed to analyze the global research trends and map the knowledge network of intracranial aneurysm (IA) research in the last 10 years.MethodsPublications related to IA from 2012 to 2021 were retrieved from the Web of Science core collection. Microsoft Excel 2010 and VOSviewer were used to characterize the largest contributors, including authors, journals, institutions, and countries. CiteSpace and VOSviewer were adopted to analyze the trends and knowledge network of IA.ResultsA total of 5,406 publications related to IA from 2012 to 2021 were identified, increasing from 344 in 2012 to 762 in 2021. Siddiqui, AH from the USA contributed the most publications. Papers published in the journal World Neurosurgery ranked first in quantity, while Stroke ranked first for total citations and citations per publication. The top three prolific institutions were Capital Medical University, Mayo Clinic, and the University Department of Neurology Utrecht from 2012 to 2021. Moreover, the USA held the greatest share in the field, and China was almost on par with the USA due to its rapid growth. Specifically, the most frequently covered topics over the recent decade were subarachnoid hemorrhage, endovascular treatment (EVT), clipping, vascular disorders, flow diverter, stent, delayed cerebral ischemia, inflammation, and hemodynamics.ConclusionThe contribution made by different countries, institutions, journals, and authors for IA research over the past decade was demonstrated in the paper. The main topics include the choice of EVT or surgical clipping, particularly the application of flow diverter and associated complications, while themes such as the etiopathogenetic features of IA (e.g., inflammation and hemodynamics) deserve more attention.

“…Reference co-citation clustering divides references into several subfields according to the degree of connection between references. From the perspective of bibliometrics, a highly cited reference in the subfield is considered the knowledge base as the knowledge carrier of the field (Chen et al, 2010;Zhang et al, 2022), whereas the citing reference that cites more papers in this subfield is considered the research front in the field. The citing references shape the clusters, indicating the main research interests and trends of the clusters (Chen et al, 2014a,b).…”

Global research trends in the subjective well-being of older adults from 2002 to 2021: A bibliometric analysis

PurposeThis study aimed to explore current developments and trends in the field of subjective well-being (SWB) of older adults at a macro level and identify research hotspots.MethodsWe included reviews and articles on the SWB of older adults in the Web of Science Core Collection published from 2002 to 2021. We used CiteSpace to draw a knowledge map of the authors, institutions, countries, references, and keywords for visual analysis and used Microsoft Excel tables to count basic information details.ResultsA total of 354 papers were included, and the number of papers published over the past two decades showed a pattern of growth. The core force of publications was primarily attributed to studies conducted in Europe, North America, Asia, and Oceania, which have relatively major issues of aging and good economic strength. However, links between states, institutions, and authors were relatively weak. Cluster analysis showed that the research field could be divided into eight topics: the application of social psychology in the study of the SWB of older adults, aging in older adults, health condition of older adults, achieving successful aging, interventions for SWB, age differences in SWB research, an economic perspective of SWB research and social support for older adults. Current research frontiers are socioeconomic status, community, intervention, participation, adjustment, validation, and personality.ConclusionThe results of the present study provided a comprehensive picture in the research field of SWB of older adults. It showed that the mechanism, especially the bidirectional effect, between the SWB of older adults and its influencing factors is still worthy of further exploration. More research on evidence-based and intervention strategies should be conducted in the future.
