“…The visual sensory system has long been investigated in China, and Chinese neuroscientists contribute a lot to understand the neural mechanism of the contextual effect, origin of the orientation selectivity and visual feature binding [36]. Take the advantage of Drosophila, a classical simple animal model which shares certain features of visual cognition in common with mammals at the genetic, molecular, cellular, and even higher behavioral levels, Guo and colleagues have got a series of important findings on the cognitive behaviors as well as learning and memory [37].…”

Neuroscience has been undergoing a rapid development in China since the beginning of the 21st century. Chinese scientists are working on neuroscience and getting more and more important results. As described by Poo Mu-ming [1], the increasing funding support, the flood of returning overseas researchers and numerous international conferences held in China give birth to the springtime of neuroscience in China. The development of nervous system and neural cellsThe nervous system is a complex network of axonal projections and synaptic connections [2]. At the early stage of neural development, besides generation of neurons and glial cells, synapse formation is the foundation of neuronal circuits and the basis of functions of nervous system including learning and memory.Chinese neuroscientists have paid attention to neural development, especially to the cellular and molecular mechanisms of synaptic plasticity and neuronal plasticity [3]. Some of these studies highlight the research of synaptic plasticity, including elucidating the mechanism of actin polymerization-dependent maturation/regulation of presynaptic transmitter secretion, which appears significant for activity-dependent synaptogenesis and the plasticity of the synaptic network during development [4], indicating the role of hippocampal synaptic plasticity as a key factor in the effects of stress or glucocorticoids on opiate addiction [5].Meanwhile, a lot of work on LTP/LTD regarded as a cellular basis for learning and memory was introduced [6]. According to Poo and colleagues, late-LTP which requires NMDA receptor activation is linked to long-term memory formation in vivo [7]. To elucidate the progress in synapse formation, the research of neuromuscular junction to excitatory central nervous system (CNS) synapses has been carried out, in addition with the mechanism exploration of activation of silent synapse in early development and investigation of synapse protein structure [8]. The role of transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels in nervous system was investigated by Wang and colleagues. They found that TRPC channels mediate the role of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in promoting neuronal survival [9] and TRPC6 is involved in synaptic and behavioral plasticity [10].In axon guidance and neuronal migration research [11], a hypothesis of chemotropic guidance of cortical radial migration [12] was supported by that semaphorin-3A is required as a chemoattractant for radial migration [13]. Calcium has been shown to play several roles in neuronal migration by mediating repulsive guidance, coordinating the changes in motility of growth cone and soma [14,15]. Meanwhile, Chung and Yuan reported that other molecules such as proteoglycans and rho GTPase are vital in mediating axon guidance and neuronal migration [16,17]. Study on ion channels and neurotransmittersIon channels could mediate rapid changes in membrane potential of synaptic transmission and be essential for a variety

“…Hence, scholars have been prompted to perform further research to improve our understanding of the relationship between ophthalmology and the nervous system. Thus, discoveries from a variety of research fields (including machine vision, visual psychophysics, visual neurophysiology, developmental neurobiology, brain imaging, and joint electrophysiological) as well as psychophysical studies in behavioral primates are beginning to establish a causal relationship between neural activity and visual perception (Yao et al, 2010 ; Norcia, 2013 ; Roussy et al, 2021 ). In clinical trials, experts continue to improve and summarize the diagnosis and treatment of ophthalmic diseases in the field of neuroscience (Neuro-ophthalmology Group of Ophthalmology Branch of Chinese Medical Association, 2022 ).…”

BackgroundThis study aimed to comprehensively summarize the knowledge structure and research hotspots of ophthalmology in the field of neuroscience through bibliometric and visual analysis.MethodsWe searched the Web of Science Core Collection database for articles from 2002 to 2021 related to ophthalmology in the field of neuroscience. Using VOSviewer and CiteSpace, bibliometric analysis was conducted on the number of annual ophthalmology publications, authors, organizations, countries, journals, cited references, keywords, and burst keywords.ResultsA total of 9,179 articles were published from 34,073 authors, 4,987 organizations, and 87 countries. The cited references in these articles were published in 23,054 journals. Moreover, there were 30,864 keywords among the 9,179 articles. Notably, scholars have increasingly begun paying attention to ophthalmology in the field of neuroscience in the past 20 years. Claudio Babiloni published the most articles. The University of Washington had the greatest number of articles. The United States, Germany, and England led in the number of articles published. The Journal of Neuroscience was the most cited. The article with the highest outbreak intensity was an article published by Maurizio Corbetta in Nature Reviews Neuroscience in 2002 entitled “Control of goal-directed and stimulus-driven attention in the brain.” The most important keyword was the brain, and the top burst keyword was functional connectivity.ConclusionThis study visualized ophthalmology research in the field of neuroscience through bibliometric analysis and predicted potential research trends in future to help clinicians and basic researchers provide diversified perspectives and further carry out in-depth research on ophthalmology.
