BackgroundRecent studies have shown that in-stent neoatherosclerosis (ISNA/NA) is an important cause of late stent failure. A comprehensive understanding of the current state of research in this field will facilitate the analysis of its development trends and hot frontiers. However, no bibliometric correlation has been reported yet. Here, we analyze the relevant literature since the emergence of the concept and provide valuable insights.MethodsPublications were collected from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) and PubMed. Microsoft Excel, SPSS and CiteSpace were used to analyze and present the data.ResultsA total of 498 articles were collected, with Japan and Cardiovasc Res Fdn being the main publishing forces in all country/region and institutions. J AM COLL CARDIOL is the journal with the most published and co-cited articles. According to co-citation analysis, optical coherence tomography, thrombosis, implantation, restenosis, drug-eluting stent, and bare metal stent have become more and more popular recently.ConclusionISNA is a niche and emerging field. How to reduce the incidence of ISNA and improve the late patency rate of coronary stents may remain a hot spot for future research. The pathogenesis of ISNA also needs to be explored in more depth.

Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) has become the third leading cause of hospital-acquired kidney injury. A comprehensive analysis of the current state of research in the field of CI-AKI will help to reveal trends and hot topics in the field. To date, there are no published bibliometric analyses related to CI-AKI studies. Here, we analyze the relevant literature since the emergence of the concept and provide valuable insights. The literature was collected from the Web of Science Core Collection. The data were analyzed visually using CiteSpace and VOSviewer software. We collected a total of 4775 papers, with the United States and Guangdong Acad Med Sci as the major publishing powers in terms of country/region and institution. J AM COLL CARDIOL was the journal with the most published and cocited articles. Cluster analysis showed that clinical trials are the current research hotspot. The areas of risk assessment, prevention strategies, risk factors, and vascular lesions have been popular in recent years. Research on the mechanism of injury in CI-AKI will be the focus of future research, which will be crucial to reduce the clinical incidence of CI-AKI. In summary, this study provides a comprehensive analysis of the development process in the field of CI-AKI and discusses future research directions based on the analysis of objective data from many studies on CI-AKI.
