We aimed to identify and analyze the characteristics of the 100 most highly-cited papers in the research field of deep brain stimulation (DBS).
The Web of Science was searched for highly-cited papers related to DBS research. The number of citations, countries, institutions of origin, year of publication, and research area were noted and analyzed.
The 100 most highly-cited articles had a mean of 304.15 citations. These accrued an average of 25.39 citations a year. The most represented target by far was the subthalamic nucleus (STN). These articles were published in 46 high-impact journals, with Brain (n = 10) topping the list. These articles came from 11 countries, with the USA contributing the most highly-cited articles (n = 29); however, it was the University of Toronto (n = 13) in Canada that was the institution with the most highly-cited studies.
This study identified the 100 most highly-cited studies and highlighted a historical perspective on the progress in the field of DBS. These findings allow for the recognition of the most influential reports and provide useful information that can indicate areas requiring further investigation.
我们旨在识别和分析脑深部电刺激（DBS）研究领域中被引用次数最多的100篇论文的特征。
在科学网中搜索与DBS研究相关的高被引论文。记录并分析论文的被引用次数、国家、来源机构、发表年份和研究领域。
100篇被引用次数最多的文章平均被引用304.15次。这些文章每年平均获得25.39次引用。到目前为止，最常见的靶点是丘脑底核（STN）。这些文章发表在46种高影响力期刊上，其中《Brain》（n = 10）位居榜首。这些文章来自11个国家，美国贡献的高被引文章最多（n = 29）；然而，加拿大的多伦多大学（n = 13）是拥有被引用次数最多研究的机构。
本研究识别出了100篇被引用次数最多的研究，并突出了DBS领域进展的历史视角。这些发现有助于识别最具影响力的报告，并提供可指示需要进一步研究领域的有用信息。
