Research trends and hotspots evolution of cardiac amyloidosis: a bibliometric analysis from 2000 to 2022

Eur J Med Res. 2023 Feb 20;28(1):89. doi: 10.1186/s40001-023-01026-5.

Abstract

In the new century, cardiac amyloidosis has received more attention from many countries and institutions, leading to innovations in the essence of the pathology, biological markers, noninvasive tests, and staging diagnoses and treatments for this disease. However, few reviews have summarized the research trends and hotspots in cardiac amyloidosis. Bibliometrics analysis is a statistically based approach to research that visualizes the contributions of academic institutions and changes in research hotspots. Therefore, in this paper, we used Citespace and VOSviewer software to conduct co-occurrence analysis and collaborative network analysis on the countries, institutions, and authors in the articles related to cardiac amyloidosis since the new century. And further find out burst keywords and references to obtain the research history, disciplinary development, and new hotspots and topics.

Keywords: AL amyloidosis; Bibliometric analysis; Cardiac amyloidosis; Heart failure; Transthyretin amyloidosis.
