Muscular dystrophy is a genetic disorder leading to progressive weakness of muscles caused due to dysfunction in or lack of protein in muscle cells. The prevalence of muscular dystrophy has been observed globally and is becoming a critical area of study for better health services. The purpose of the study is to analyze the research strength of muscular dystrophy using bibliographic literature. A quantitative literature analysis was carried out on muscular dystrophy from 1991 to 2015 for assessing the global research trends. This literature-based study was conducted using the documents retrieved from the Science Citation Index using the keywords: Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD), Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (CMD), Myotonic Dystrophy, Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy, Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy, Oculopharyngeal Muscular Dystrophy, and Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. Analysis was done for annual productivity of publication, authorship, collaboration, country performance, citation frequency, characteristics of most cited document, journal productivity, etc.
肌肉萎缩症是一种遗传性疾病，由于肌肉细胞功能障碍或缺乏蛋白质导致肌肉逐渐无力。肌肉萎缩症在全球均有发现，并且正成为改善医疗服务的一个关键研究领域。本研究的目的是利用文献资料分析肌肉萎缩症的研究实力。对1991年至2015年期间的肌肉萎缩症进行了定量文献分析，以评估全球研究趋势。这项基于文献的研究使用从科学引文索引中检索到的文献进行，关键词包括：杜氏肌营养不良症（DMD）、贝克肌营养不良症（BMD）、先天性肌营养不良症（CMD）、强直性肌营养不良症、埃默里-德赖富斯肌营养不良症、面肩肱型肌营养不良症、眼咽型肌营养不良症和肢带型肌营养不良症。对年度发表量、作者身份、合作情况、国家表现、被引频次、被引次数最多文献的特征、期刊发表量等进行了分析。
