Publication trends of Leber congenital amaurosis researches:a bibliometric study during 2002-2022

AIM:To analyze the changes in scientific output relating to Leber congenital amaurosis(LCA)and forecast the study trends in this field.METHODS:All of the publications in the field of LCA from 2002 to 2022 were collected from Web of Science(WOS)database.We analyzed the quantity(number of publications),quality(citation and H-index)and development trends(relative research interest,RRI)of published LCA research over the last two decades.Moreover,VOSviewer software was applied to define the co-occurrence network of keywords in this field.RESULTS:A total of 2158 publications were ultimately examined.We found that the focus on LCA kept rising and peaked in 2015 and 2018,which is consistent with the development trend of gene therapy.The USA has contributed most to this field with 1162 publications,56674 citations and the highest H-index value(116).The keywords analysis was divided into five clusters to show the hotspots in the field of LCA,namely mechanism-related,genotype-related,local phenotype-related,system phenotype-related,and therapy-related.We also identified gene therapy and antiretinal degeneration therapy as a major focus in recent years.CONCLUSION:Our study illustrates historical research process and future development trends in LCA field.This may help to guide the orientation for further clinical diagnosis,treatment and scientific research.

Global knowledge domain and prospects in tuna research:A bibliometric analysis

Tunas are among the most economically important fish species and play critical roles in food composition and nutrition of humans.As apex predators,they also keep the marine ecosystem healthy and balanced.Both natural and human factors influence the status of this important marine resource and their habitats.There is a large cadre of studies on how tunas are of great significance to the exploitation and management of their fisheries,yet there are few summaries of this research.We aimed to quantitatively and qualitatively synthesize the global knowledge structure and emerging trends in tuna research using bibliometric software.References with"Tuna","Katsuwonus",or"Thunnus"as the subject in the Web of Science Core Collection Database from 1995 to 2019 were visually analyzed using CiteSpace.Publication rate and output,active countries,institutions,authors,and co-cited references were performed.Results suggested that the number of international tuna research papers increased significantly between 2000 and 2010,as a considerable number of high-impact articles emerged during this period.Researchers paid more attention to 19 main topics during this period,notably"overfishing","bycatch","climate change","marine pollution",and"fish management",which all posed potential risks and challenges to tuna survival.Future research should emphasize resolving these challenges and building international cooperation for the proper management of tuna populations.
