Nutrient management and lifestyle changes are the frontlines of treatment for all pregnant women diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM). This study aimed to identify the global research architecture, trends, and hotpots of GDM and nutrition.
We obtained publications from the sub-databases of Science Citation Index Expanded and Social Science Citation Index sourced from the Web of Science Core Collection database on January 4, 2022, using publication years between 2011 and 2021. CiteSpace software, VOSviewer, and Microsoft Excel 2019 were used to conduct the bibliometric analyses.
A growing publication trend was observed for GDM and nutrition, and this field has great potential. More GDM and nutrition research has been conducted in developed countries than developing countries. The top three authors with a high publication frequency, co-citations, and a good h-index were from the United States. There were the four studies of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or meta-analyses of RCTs, as well as one review in the top five items of cited literature. Keywords were categorized into four clusters based on the keywords visualization.
It is important to strengthen the collaboration between nations of different economies to produce more high-quality research on GDM and nutrition. It may be beneficial to further study the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of GDM based on current results to provide a new perspective on GDM and nutrition.
营养管理和生活方式改变是所有被诊断为妊娠期糖尿病（GDM）的孕妇治疗的前沿措施。本研究旨在确定GDM与营养领域的全球研究架构、趋势和热点。
我们于2022年1月4日从科学网核心合集数据库的科学引文索引扩展版和社会科学引文索引子数据库中获取了2011年至2021年间发表的文献。使用CiteSpace软件、VOSviewer和Microsoft Excel 2019进行文献计量分析。
观察到GDM与营养领域的发文呈增长趋势，该领域具有很大潜力。发达国家开展的GDM与营养研究比发展中国家更多。发表频率、共被引次数和h指数较高的前三位作者来自美国。在被引文献排名前五的条目中有四项随机对照试验（RCT）研究或RCT的荟萃分析，以及一篇综述。基于关键词可视化，关键词被分为四个聚类。
加强不同经济体国家之间的合作以开展更多关于GDM与营养的高质量研究很重要。基于当前结果进一步研究GDM的病因、诊断和治疗可能有益，可为GDM与营养提供新视角。
