The purpose of this bibliometric analysis was to identify trends and hot topics in research on lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) over the past decade, for helping researchers explore new directions for future research in that area.
All research articles on LSS, written in English and indexed in the Web of Science database (WoS) between 2010 and 2020, were used. The visualization of network and in-depth bibliometric analysis including the number of publications, countries, institutions, journals, authors, cited references, and key words was carried out with the help of CiteSpace.
A total of 4033 papers (3577 original articles and 476 reviews) were identified and included in the study. The most productive year was in 2019. The Spine was the journal that published the highest number of articles and received the most citations. The most productive country and institutions in this field were the United States and Seoul National University, respectively. Kim HJ was the most prolific author, and Deyo RA ranked the first in the cited authors. The most cited article was published in 2010 by Deyo et al. and described the complications and charges index for LSS. From the coword cluster analysis, there were 3 frontiers in lumbar spinal stenosis: intervention, outcomes, and pathogenesis.
We have summarized the literature on LSS in the past decade including publication information, country, institution, authors, and journal. Research on minimally invasive surgery, outcomes, and gene therapies in LSS will be hot topics in the future.
本文献计量分析旨在确定过去十年中腰椎椎管狭窄症（LSS）研究的趋势和热点，以帮助研究人员探索该领域未来研究的新方向。
使用 2010 年至 2020 年间在 Web of Science 数据库（WoS）中以英文发表并被索引的所有关于 LSS 的研究文章。借助 CiteSpace 进行网络可视化和深入的文献计量分析，包括出版物数量、国家、机构、期刊、作者、被引参考文献和关键词。
共确定并纳入 4033 篇论文（3577 篇原始文章和 476 篇综述）。最具生产力的年份是 2019 年。发表文章数量最多和被引频次最高的期刊是《脊柱》。该领域最具生产力的国家和机构分别是美国和首尔国立大学。金 HJ 是最具生产力的作者，德约 RA 在被引作者中排名第一。被引频次最高的文章发表于 2010 年，由 Deyo 等人撰写，描述了 LSS 的并发症和费用指数。从共词聚类分析来看，腰椎椎管狭窄症有 3 个前沿领域：干预、结果和发病机制。
我们总结了过去十年中关于 LSS 的文献，包括出版信息、国家、机构、作者和期刊。未来，LSS 的微创手术、结果和基因治疗的研究将成为热点。
