To identify and evaluate characteristics of the most influential articles in achalasia research during the period 1995-2020.
Articles in Scopus, Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC), and PubMed were scanned from 1995 to 2020 with achalasia as the keyword. We retrieved the articles that met all criteria by descending order after using EndNote to remove the duplicated references. Our bibliometric analysis highlighted publication year, country, journals, and networks of keywords.
Fifteen percent of the top 100 most-cited articles were published in They were performed in 15 countries, and most ( = 55) were from the USA. The number of citations of the 482 articles ranged from 30 to 953, 38 of which had been published in . Those articles were from 31 countries, and most of the studies ( = 217) had been performed in the USA. Most of articles ( = 335) were clinical research. Treatments were hotspots in the field of achalasia in the past years. The most influential title words were "achalasia," "esophagomyotomy," "pneumatic dilation," and "lower esophageal sphincter."
Our study offers a historical perspective on the progress of achalasia research and identified the most significant evolution in this field. Results showed treatment was the most influence aspect in achalasia.
识别和评估 1995-2020 年期间贲门失弛缓症研究中最具影响力的文章的特点。
使用 Scopus、Web of Science Core Collection（WoSCC）和 PubMed 从 1995 年到 2020 年以贲门失弛缓症为关键词扫描文章。我们使用 EndNote 去除重复引用后，按降序排列检索符合所有标准的文章。我们的文献计量分析突出了出版物年份、国家、期刊和关键词网络。
前 100 篇被引最多的文章中有 15%发表于 1998 年至 2007 年。它们分别在 15 个国家进行，其中 55 篇来自美国。482 篇文章的引用次数从 30 次到 953 次不等，其中 38 篇发表在《胃肠病学》上。这些文章来自 31 个国家，其中大部分（217 项）在美国进行。大多数文章（335 篇）是临床研究。治疗是贲门失弛缓症领域近年来的热点。最有影响力的标题词是“贲门失弛缓症”、“食管肌切开术”、“气囊扩张”和“食管下括约肌”。
本研究提供了贲门失弛缓症研究进展的历史视角，并确定了该领域最显著的演变。结果表明，治疗是贲门失弛缓症最具影响力的方面。
