Research status and hotspots of hypothermia and human diseases: a bibliometric analysis
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Hypothermia has been strongly associated with human diseases; it affects life safety. Therapeutic hypothermia generates good results for certain diseases, without serious complications. In clinical practice, research on the treatment of hypothermia and severe hypothermia-induced diseases have achieved fruitful results. However, no bibliometric analysis has been conducted. In this study, we explored the research status and hotspots of hypothermia and human diseases by conducting a bibliometric analysis.
METHODS: Articles on hypothermia and human diseases were collected from the Web of Science Core Collection. From 1 January 2005 to 31 August 2024, A total of 1,553 articles were retrieved. After excluding irrelevant articles, 706 articles were analyzed.
RESULTS: The United States and China published the maximum number of research articles on hypothermia and human diseases. Among institutes, Johns Hopkins University and Harvard University published the maximum number of research articles. Scholars, including Ishikawa Takaki, Maeda Hitoshi, and Michiue Tomomi, constituted a highly productive group of authors. The journal, Therapeutic Hypothermia and Temperature Management published the highest number of articles, and Nature Reviews Drug Discovery had the highest impact factor. Cluster analysis of all keywords primarily focused on the following research directions: (i) hypothermia-related injury, (ii) hypothermia treatment, and (iii) the mechanism underlying…
