Rotator cuff diseases, as a common cause of shoulder pain and disability, have seriously affected the patients' daily life. Rotator cuff repair techniques have been a hot topic in the arthroscopic therapy field. Our study was to use bibliometrics analysis to clarify the current status and research trends in the field of arthroscopic therapy of rotator cuff diseases.
The publications relating to arthroscopic therapy of rotator cuff diseases published from 2001 to 2021 were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. The R software and VOSviewer software were used for the cross-sectional bibliometric and scientometric analysis.
A total of 4,567 publications about arthroscopic therapy of rotator cuff diseases published between 2002 and 2021 retrieved from the WoSCC database were analyzed in our study. The results showed that the United States made the largest contribution to this field. The most relevant institutions were Seoul National University, Rush University, and Hospital for Special Surgery. Stephen S Burkhart was the most relevant researcher in this field with the largest number of publications, as well as the highest H-index and G-index. The journal ARTHROSCOPY contributed the largest number of publications in the past 2 decades. Considering the H-index and G-index, ARTHROSCOPY was also the journal with the largest impact in this field.
Arthroscopic Therapy of Rotator Cuff Diseases Related research presented a rising trend in the past 2 decades. The United States can be regarded as the leader because of its huge contributions to this field. The journal ARTHROSCOPY published the largest number of publications in this field. It can be predicted that research about advanced arthroscopic techniques and postoperative pain management of patients with rotator cuff diseases will be the next research hotspots in the following years.
肩袖疾病作为肩痛和功能障碍的常见原因，严重影响了患者的日常生活。肩袖修复技术一直是关节镜治疗领域的热门话题。我们的研究旨在通过文献计量学分析来阐明肩袖疾病关节镜治疗领域的现状和研究趋势。
从Web of Science核心合集（WoSCC）数据库中获取2001年至2021年发表的与肩袖疾病关节镜治疗相关的文献。使用R软件和VOSviewer软件进行横断面文献计量学和科学计量学分析。
我们的研究分析了从WoSCC数据库中检索到的2002年至2021年间发表的4567篇关于肩袖疾病关节镜治疗的文献。结果表明，美国在该领域的贡献最大。最相关的机构是首尔国立大学、拉什大学和特种外科医院。斯蒂芬·S·伯克哈特是该领域最相关的研究人员，发表的文献数量最多，H指数和G指数也最高。《关节镜》杂志在过去20年中发表的文献数量最多。考虑到H指数和G指数，《关节镜》也是该领域影响最大的杂志。
肩袖疾病的关节镜治疗相关研究在过去20年呈上升趋势。美国因其在该领域的巨大贡献可被视为领导者。《关节镜》杂志在该领域发表的文献数量最多。可以预测，肩袖疾病患者先进关节镜技术和术后疼痛管理的研究将是未来几年的下一个研究热点。
