To identify global research trends in transplantation of neural stem cells, Schwann cells and olfactory ensheathing cells for spinal cord injury.
We performed a bibliometric analysis of studies on transplantation of neural stem cells, Schwann cells and olfactory ensheathing cells for spinal cord injury published from 2002 to 2011 and retrieved from the Web of Science, using the key words spinal cord injury along with either neural stem cell, Schwann cell or olfactory ensheathing cell.
(a) peer-reviewed published articles on neural stem cells, Schwann cells or olfactory ensheathing cells for spinal cord injury indexed in the Web of Science; (b) original research articles, reviews, meeting abstracts, proceedings papers, book chapters, editorial materials and news items; and (c) published between 2002 and 2011.
(a) articles that required manual searching or telephone access; (b) documents that were not published in the public domain; and (c) corrected papers.
(1) Annual publication output, distribution by journal, distribution by institution and top-cited articles on neural stem cells; (2) annual publication output, distribution by journal, distribution by institution and top-cited articles on Schwann cells; (3) annual publication output, distribution by journal, distribution by institution and top-cited articles on olfactory ensheathing cells.
This analysis, based on articles indexed in the Web of Science, identified several research trends among studies published over the past 10 years in transplantation of neural stem cells, Schwann cells and olfactory ensheathing cells for spinal cord injury. The number of publications increased over the 10-year period examined. Most papers appeared in journals with a focus on neurology, such as Journal of Neurotrauma, Experimental Neurology and Glia. Research institutes publishing on the use of neural stem cells to repair spinal cord injury were mostly in the USA and Canada. Those publishing on the use of Schwann cells were mostly in the USA and Canada as well. Those publishing on the use of olfactory ensheathing cells were mostly in the UK, the USA and Canada.
On the basis of the large number of studies around the world, cell transplantation has proven to be the most promising therapeutic approach for spinal cord injury.
确定神经干细胞、施万细胞和嗅鞘细胞移植治疗脊髓损伤的全球研究趋势。
我们对 2002 年至 2011 年间发表在 Web of Science 上的神经干细胞、施万细胞和嗅鞘细胞移植治疗脊髓损伤的研究进行了文献计量学分析,使用的关键词是脊髓损伤,以及神经干细胞、施万细胞或嗅鞘细胞。
(a)在 Web of Science 中索引的关于神经干细胞、施万细胞或嗅鞘细胞治疗脊髓损伤的同行评议发表文章;(b)原始研究文章、综述、会议摘要、会议录、章节、社论材料和新闻文章;(c)发表于 2002 年至 2011 年期间。
(a)需要手动搜索或电话访问的文章;(b)未公开发表的文件;(c)更正后的论文。
(1)神经干细胞的年度出版物数量、期刊分布、机构分布和高被引论文;(2)施万细胞的年度出版物数量、期刊分布、机构分布和高被引论文;(3)嗅鞘细胞的年度出版物数量、期刊分布、机构分布和高被引论文。
基于 Web of Science 索引的文章分析,确定了过去 10 年神经干细胞、施万细胞和嗅鞘细胞移植治疗脊髓损伤研究的几个研究趋势。在研究期间,出版物数量有所增加。大多数论文发表在以神经病学为重点的期刊上,如《神经创伤杂志》、《实验神经病学》和《神经胶质》。研究机构发表的关于使用神经干细胞修复脊髓损伤的文章主要来自美国和加拿大。发表关于施万细胞应用的文章主要来自美国和加拿大。发表关于嗅鞘细胞应用的文章主要来自英国、美国和加拿大。
基于全世界大量的研究,细胞移植已被证明是治疗脊髓损伤最有前途的治疗方法。
