“…In addition, it was possible to observe that the results obtained show that a significant number of studies were concentrated in a very specific and small core of journals. Our results are in line with other works where Bradford's Law was fulfilled ( 44 , 43 , 76 , 81 ). One may recall that Bradford's Law is a model that estimates the exponential decrease in performance of expanding the search for references in scientific journals ( 82 ).…”

“…Since 2000, the number of documents has been progressively increasing, with 2022 being the year with the greatest level of production. Some research, such as that conducted by Aronson and Fermer ( 52 ), or more recently, one produced by Dong et al ( 44 ), has pointed out the significant increase in interest in biomarker studies, showing a clear upwards trend since the end of the last decade. The growth trend in scientific production on cardiac troponin in young people shows that it has not yet reached a stage of maturity, and it could continue to grow in the coming years.…”

“…In recent years, bibliometric mapping has been widely analysed within the field of public health (39)(40)(41)(42)(43). Furthermore, there is a recently published, retrospective study on heart failure biomarkers (44) that presents a bibliometric analysis that aims to assess the state of research on biomarkers and heart failure. However, to our knowledge, no bibliometric studies have been carried out on cardiac troponin as specifically linked to the field of sports science in pediatric populations.…”

BackgroundCardiac troponin (cTn) is a reliable marker for evaluating myocardial damage. cTn is a very specific protein involved in myocardial injury, and it is a key factor in the diagnosis of coronary syndromes. Bibliometric analysis was applied in the present work, with the main goal of evaluating global research on the topic of cardiac troponin in pediatric populations.MethodsPublications about cardiac troponin and physical activity in pediatric populations were retrieved from the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) and the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) of the Web of Science Core Collection, and they were then analyzed. The study was able to identify the key bibliometric indicators, such as publications, keywords, authors, countries, institutions, and journals. For the analysis, VOSviewer, R-based Bibliometrix (4.2.2), and MapChart were used.ResultsInitially, 98 documents were identified; however, once inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, the number of documents decreased to 88. The search yielded 79 original research articles and 9 reviews, almost all of which were published in the past 2 decades. The total number of citations (Nc) of the retrieved publications was 1,468, and the average number of citations per article (Na) was 16.68. In general, 508 authors were found to have participated in research about troponin; they were associated with 256 institutions, and their work was published in 65 different journals from around the world. The authors hailed from 30 countries and/or regions. The year 2022 was the most productive year for the publication of the selected documents. The bibliometric analysis provided information regarding levels of cooperation among authors and institutions. In fact, China, the United States, and England were the most productive nations, and the journal with the greatest number of publications on the topic was Pediatric Cardiology.SummaryThe number of publications and the trend line show that research on this topic has not yet reached a stage of maturity. There are referent investigators, countries, and institutions that have laid the foundations for subsequent studies on the analyzed topic.

“…In bibliometrics, network charts are frequently used to report the collaborations and cooccurrences involving the most active international entities across countries, research institutes, departments, authors, and keywords. [3,28,[46][47][48][49][50] However, these charts often suffer from unclear labeling and relationships between members. To address these limitations, this study will demonstrate the use of 5 CNCs in AI for critical care.…”

Background: The field of critical care-related artificial intelligence (AI) research is rapidly gaining interest. However, there is still a lack of comprehensive bibliometric studies that measure and analyze scientific publications on a global scale. Network charts have traditionally been used to highlight author collaborations and coword phenomena (ACCP). It is necessary to determine whether chord network charts (CNCs) can provide a better understanding of ACCP, thus requiring clarification. This study aimed to achieve 2 objectives: evaluate global research trends in AI in intensive care medicine on publication outputs, coauthorships between nations, citations, and co-occurrences of keywords; and demonstrate the use of CNCs for ACCP in bibliometric analysis. Methods: The web of science database was searched for a total of 1992 documents published between 2013 and 2022. The document type was limited to articles and article reviews, and titles and abstracts were screened for eligibility. The characteristics of the publications, including preferred journals, leading research countries, international collaborations, top institutions, and major keywords, were analyzed using the category-journal rank-authorship-L-index score and trend analysis. The 100 most highly cited articles are also listed in detail. Results: Between 2018 and 2022, there was a sharp increase in publications, which accounted for 92.8% (1849/1992) of all papers included in the study. The United States and China were responsible for nearly 50% (936/1992) of the total publications. The leading countries, institutes, departments, authors, and journals in terms of publications were the US, Massachusetts Gen Hosp (US), Medical School, Zhongheng Zhang (China), and Science Reports. The top 3 primary keywords denoting research hotspots for AI in critically ill patients were mortality, model, and intensive care unit, with mortality having the highest burst strength (4.49). The keywords risk and system showed the highest growth trend (0.98) in counts over the past 4 years. Conclusions: This study provides valuable insights into the potential for ACCP and future research opportunities. For AI-based clinical research to become widely accepted in critical care practice, collaborative research efforts are necessary to strengthen the maturity and robustness of AI-driven models using CNCs for display.

Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a common complication of diabetes, which is prone to develop into end-stage renal disease, and early diagnosis and treatment is the key to effective management of DN. Biomarkers have important clinical significance in the diagnosis and treatment of DN and have attracted extensive attention from researchers in recent years. The aim of this study was to visualize the field of biomarker research in DN through bibliometric analysis, to summarize the current status and predict future trends of this field, with a view to providing valuable insights for scholars and policy makers. Methods: Literature search and data collection from Web of Science Core Collection. Calculations and visualizations were performed using Microsoft Excel, VOSviewer, Bibliometrix R-package, and CiteSpace. Results: We identified 1274 publications about biomarker research in DN from 1995 to November 01, 2023, with a steady increase in annual publications. China, Steno Diabetes Center in Denmark, and Frontiers in Endocrinology were the most productive country, institution, and journal, respectively; Mischak, Harald was both the most productive and highly cited author, and Kidney International was the most cited journal. The high frequency keywords were “albuminuria,” “chronic kidney disease” and “expression.” In addition, “macrophage,” “fibrosis” and “omics” are potentially promising topics. Conclusion: Our study comprehensively and visually summarized the important findings of global biomarker research in DN and revealed the structure, hotspots, and evolutionary trends in this field. It would inspire subsequent studies from a macroscopic perspective and provide a basis for rational allocation of resources and identification of collaborations among researchers.
