The implementation of automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) has considerably increased in many countries. We conducted a bibliometric analysis to evaluate the accumulating studies on APD in the last two decades quantitatively and qualitatively.
Publications regarding APD research between 2000 and 2020 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database by using the index term "automated peritoneal dialysis." CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and an online platform were employed to analyze the number of publications and the collaboration relationships between countries, institutions, authors, and co-cited journals. Cluster analysis and burst keywords detection were performed on co-cited references and keywords, respectively.
We obtained a record of 545 publications related to APD in total. The United States was the country that contributes most, and Baxter Healthcare Corporation was the leading institution. Peritoneal Dialysis International was the most active journals in this field. Claudio Ranco was the most productive author, and Simon J Davies ranked the first in the cited authors. Co-cited reference cluster analysis and high frequency keywords showed that survival, ultrafiltration and peritonitis are continuous hot topics. While remote monitoring (RM) and telemedicine may be APD research frontiers according to burst keywords detection.
This bibliometric study provides comprehensive overview on the publications of APD over the past two decades. These findings help to identify the hotspots and explore new directions for future research. RM has become an emerging trend in APD field.
在许多国家，自动化腹膜透析（APD）的应用已大幅增加。我们进行了一项文献计量分析，以定量和定性评估过去二十年中关于APD的累积研究。
通过使用索引词“自动化腹膜透析”，从科学网核心合集数据库中检索2000年至2020年期间有关APD研究的出版物。使用CiteSpace、VOSviewer和一个在线平台来分析出版物数量以及国家、机构、作者和共被引期刊之间的合作关系。分别对共被引参考文献和关键词进行聚类分析和突发关键词检测。
我们总共获得了545篇与APD相关的出版物记录。美国是贡献最大的国家，百特医疗保健公司是领先机构。《腹膜透析国际》是该领域最活跃的期刊。克劳迪奥·兰科是产出最多的作者，西蒙·J·戴维斯在被引作者中排名第一。共被引参考文献聚类分析和高频关键词表明，生存、超滤和腹膜炎是持续的热门话题。而根据突发关键词检测，远程监测（RM）和远程医疗可能是APD研究的前沿领域。
这项文献计量研究全面概述了过去二十年中APD的出版物情况。这些发现有助于确定热点并探索未来研究的新方向。RM已成为APD领域的一个新兴趋势。
