Visual analysis based on CiteSpace software: a bibliometric study of atrial myxoma

Abstract

ObjectiveTo use CiteSpace and VOSviewer visual metrology to analyze the research status, frontier hotspots, and trends in research on atrial myxoma.MethodsThe Web of Science core collection database was used to retrieve relevant literature on atrial myxoma from 2001 to 2022. CiteSpace software was used to analyze keywords with a co-occurrence network, co-polymerization class, and burst terms, and a corresponding visual atlas was drawn for analysis.ResultsA total of 893 valid articles were included. The country with the highest number of articles was the United States (n = 186). The organization with the highest number of articles was the Mayo Clinic (n = 15). The author with the highest number of articles was Yuan SM (n = 12). The highest cited author was Reynen K (n = 312). The highest cited journal was Annals of Thoracic Surgery (n = 1,067). The most frequently cited literature was published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1995, which was cited 233 times. The keywords co-occurrence, copolymerization analysis, and Burst analysis revealed that the main research focuses were surgical methods, case reports, and genetic and molecular level studies on the pathogenesis of myxoma.ConclusionsThis bibliometric analysis revealed that the main research topics and hotspots in atrial myxoma included surgical methods, case reports, genetic and molecular studies.

The research progress and research trends in acute coronary syndrome nursing: A review of visual analysis based on the Web of Science database

“…The circle in the figure indicates each country or institution node, the larger the area, the more publications; the connecting line indicates a cooperative relationship; when the intermediary centrality of the node is > 0.1, the circle will appear purple outer circle, which represents that the node has an important role in the process of information transmission. [ 12 – 14 ] The results show that a total of 121 countries and 387 institutions have published literature on ACS care research, and there is strong communication and cooperation between institutions in each country. The top 5 countries in terms of the number of publications USA (1319), England (436), Australia (326), Italy (311), Canada (309), and China (279) ranked 7th; the top 5 countries in terms of centrality Togo (0.25), South Africa (0.21), Mexico (0.18), Tunisia (0.16) and Senegal (0.15).…”

“…It can qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the authors, institutions, countries, journals, and co-cited literature of a certain research field, and intuitively reflect the research hotspots and research frontiers of a certain research field in the form of dynamic mapping. [11–13] This advantage cannot be realized by traditional reviews. Therefore, this study intends to use bibliometric research methods to demonstrate the research hotspots and development trends in the field of ACS nursing in the past 10 years in the form of visual mapping by visualizing countries, institutions, authors, co-cited literature, and keywords, so as to provide a reference for the future research on ACSs.…”

“…The number of citations can represent the quality of papers to a certain extent. Generally, the more citations a published paper has, the higher the quality of the paper and the more original the innovations (Gao et al 2023 ; Wang et al 2022 ). In this research, the total number of citations and the average number of citations from various countries were analyzed.…”

What do we know about L2 teachers' emotion regulation? A bibliometric analysis of the pertinent literature

“…Therefore, we used CiteSpace (Version 6.2.R2) to review the literature on L2 teachers' emotion regulation in this study. CiteSpace has been widely used for conducting review research in various fields, such as education (Chu et al, 2023), linguistics (Peng and Hu, 2022), medicine (Gao et al, 2023), etc., which further justifies its use for this study.…”
