Psychological Consequences Associated With Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery: A Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

The current paper explores the mutual impact of psychological factors and cardiac surgery on each other using bibliometric analysis with the help of indicative cited publications, co-cited journals, and collaborations between countries, institutions, and authors. Citation analysis is an attractive methodology because it provides quantitative information that is readily acquired with electronic databases and that can be compared across topic areas. The bibliometric investigation was done using the PubMed database, Scopus, Web of Science, etc. with the help of appropriate MeSH words. Followed by an analysis of data with the help of CiteSpace 5.3.R4, Microsoft Excel 2016, and IBM SPSS Statistics 20.0 software (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). The software extracts the number of scientific publications, citation frequency, and keyword trends. Relational figures and tables were obtained for data interpretation. The records of 259 articles were analyzed using bibliometric investigation which shows the increasing incidence of psychological consequences linked with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. This indicates that immediate management is required to overcome this. The present bibliometric study emphasizes the need for psychological screening and management of post-CABG patients. This will lay the path for organizing and prioritizing future research on vascular psychiatry and its early management.

The impact of aerobics on mental health and stress levels: A visualization analysis of the CiteSpace map

“…For example, Farkas et al (2023) found that aerobics can reduce anxiety levels and improve emotional states [ 13 ]. Similarly, Jain et al (2022) showed that aerobics training could help reduce depressive symptoms and improve quality of life [ 14 ]. These findings highlighted the potential of aerobics as a form of mental health promotion.…”
