Acupuncture treatment (AT) is commonly utilized for vomiting; however, limited bibliometric analyses exist in this area. Employing a bibliometric approach, we conducted a comprehensive review spanning three decades to assess the research landscape, advancements, and emerging trends in AT for vomiting.
We collected the related literature data from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) from 1990 to 2022. VOSviewer and R studio were used to perform the bibliometric analysis of AT on vomiting. The status of authors, countries, affiliations, annual publications, keywords, and journals were analyzed accordingly.
The earliest relevant paper was published in 1990. Streitberger, K was the most productive author (7 records) and had significant influence (225 reference times, H-Index = 7). The United States had the highest publication count (224 records) and received the most recognition (9719 reference times, H-Index = 52). MEDICINE had the highest number of outputs (34 records), while ANESTHESIA AND ANALGESIA was the most cited journal (1045 reference times). The institution with the most works was Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (CDUTCM) (13 records), and the University of California, Los Angeles received the most citations (1252 reference times). Recent and future research hotspots included AT for postoperative vomiting and post-chemotherapy vomiting. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses were the predominant study types.
The current status and development prospects of AT for vomiting are shown in this study. In addition, this article provides valuable ideas and potential directions for future research activities.
针刺治疗（AT）常用于呕吐，但在该领域的文献计量分析有限。本研究采用文献计量学方法，对 30 年来针刺治疗呕吐的研究现状、进展和新兴趋势进行了全面回顾。
我们从 1990 年至 2022 年从 Web of Science Core Collection（WOSCC）中收集了相关文献数据。使用 VOSviewer 和 R studio 对针刺治疗呕吐进行了文献计量分析。分析了作者、国家、机构、年发文量、关键词和期刊的现状。
最早的相关文献发表于 1990 年。Streitberger, K 是最具生产力的作者（7 篇记录），具有显著影响力（225 次引用，H-指数=7）。美国发表的文章数量最多（224 篇），获得的认可也最多（9719 次引用，H-指数=52）。MEDICINE 发表的文章数量最多（34 篇），而 ANESTHESIA AND ANALGESIA 是被引次数最多的期刊（1045 次引用）。发文量最多的机构是成都中医药大学（CDUTCM）（13 篇），而加利福尼亚大学洛杉矶分校获得的引用次数最多（1252 次引用）。最近和未来的研究热点包括针刺治疗术后呕吐和化疗后呕吐。系统评价和荟萃分析是主要的研究类型。
本研究展示了针刺治疗呕吐的现状和发展前景。此外，本文为未来的研究活动提供了有价值的思路和潜在方向。
