“…There are currently several articles that have conducted a co-citation analysis on COVID-19 [ 12 – 14 ] and some are even focused on a field of research [ 15 ] or a specific specialty [ 16 ]. However, this is the first study to focus specifically on publications in the specialty of radiology.…”

Objectives The pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has led to the rapid publication of numerous radiology articles, primarily focused on disease diagnosis. The objective of this study is to analyze the intellectual structure of radiology research on COVID-19 using a citation and co-citation analysis. Methods We identified all documents about COVID-19 published in radiology journals included in the Web of Science in the period 2020–2021, conducting a citation analysis. Then we identified all bibliographic references that were cited by these documents, generating a co-citation matrix that was used to perform a co-citation network. Results Of the 3418 documents indexed in WoS, 857 were initially “Early Access,” 2223 had citations, 393 had more than 20 citations, and 83 had more than 100 citations. The USA had the highest number of publications (32.62%) and China had the highest rate of funded studies (45.38%). The three authors with the most publications were affiliated with Italian institutions, while the five most cited authors were Chinese. A total of 647 publications were co-cited at least 12 times and were published in 206 different journals, with 49% of the documents found in radiology journals. The institutions with the greatest presence among these co-cited articles were Chinese and American. Conclusion This co-citation analysis is the first to focus exclusively on radiology articles on COVID-19. Our study confirms the existence of interrelated thematic clusters with different specific weights. Key Points • As the pandemic caused by SARS-Cov-2 has led to the rapid publication of numerous radiology studies in a short time period, a bibliometric review based on citation and co-citation analysis has been conducted. • The co-citation analysis supported the identification of key themes in the study of COVID-19 in radiology publications. • Many of the most co-cited articles belong to a heterogeneous group of publications, with authors from countries that are far apart and even from different disciplines .

“…Since the early 2020s, the human investment in research from all specialties has led to a better understanding of the virus, its pathophysiology, and its impact on dysfunction organ allowing for better patient management in record time. Critical care research has been particularly efficient, accounting for more than 10% of global COVID-19-related publications [ 53 , 54 ]. The surge in research has been supported by combined efforts of critical care professionals, fast-track institutional review processes and ethics committee approval [ 45 ].…”

Over the past 2 years, SARS-CoV-2 infection has resulted in numerous hospitalizations and deaths worldwide. As young intensivists, we have been at the forefront of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and it has been an intense learning experience affecting all aspects of our specialty. Critical care was put forward as a priority and managed to adapt to the influx of patients and the growing demand for beds, financial and material resources, thereby highlighting its flexibility and central role in the healthcare system. Intensivists assumed an essential and unprecedented role in public life, which was important when claiming for indispensable material and human investments. Physicians and researchers around the world worked hand-in-hand to advance research and better manage this disease by integrating a rapidly growing body of evidence into guidelines. Our daily ethical practices and communication with families were challenged by the massive influx of patients and restricted visitation policies, forcing us to improve our collaboration with other specialties and innovate with new communication channels. However, the picture was not all bright, and some of these achievements are already fading over time despite the ongoing pandemic and hospital crisis. In addition, the pandemic has demonstrated the need to improve the working conditions and well-being of critical care workers to cope with the current shortage of human resources. Despite the gloomy atmosphere, we remain optimistic. In this ten-key points review, we outline our vision on how to capitalize on the lasting impact of the pandemic to face future challenges and foster transformative changes of critical care for the better.

“…Furthermore, the bibliometric analysis can predict the hotspots and trends within a specific research area through information visualization ( 13 , 14 ), which are also important and of interest in the medical field. In recent years, bibliometric studies have been widely used in public health and/or clinical research ( 15 – 17 ). However, there is still a lack of analysis for renal rehabilitation.…”

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing global health challenge with an increasing incidence rate. Exercise-based renal rehabilitation is an evidence-based, multidisciplinary, and comprehensive intervention designed to improve the physical and psychological condition of patients with CKD. The knowledge structure, research hotspots, and development trends in exercise-based renal rehabilitation have not been systematically described. The aim of this study was to provide a bibliometric perspective of the progress in this field. Publications about exercise-based renal rehabilitation were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection, using the terms “exercise,” “physical activity,” and “chronic kidney disease.” Annual publications, subject categories, countries, authors, references, and keywords in this field were visually analyzed using the Citespace, VOSview, and Excel software. A total of 4,610 publications were analyzed, with a steady increase in publications in the field. Overall, the United States is the major contributor to the study of exercise-based renal rehabilitation. Johansen KL and Painter P are the key researchers in this field. Keyword analysis shows that research hotspots in this field include exercise/physical activity for different stages of CKD, exercise-based renal rehabilitation for frailty, and physical activity management for CKD. These findings will make understanding exercise-based renal rehabilitation research better and inform about future research ideas.
