There is no bibliometric study in the literature on Aplastic Anemia (AA). In the present study, the purpose was to summarize the intellectual structure of the subject, uncover the global productivity in this respect, and identify the latest research trends by performing a bibliometric analysis of the articles published on AA. For this purpose, outputs for different research components of scientific outputs (i.e., countries, institutions, journals, and authors) were analyzed. A total of 3221 articles on Aplastic Anemia published between 1980 and 2022 were analyzed by using various statistical methods and bibliometric approaches. The Spearman Correlation Coefficient was used for correlation analysis and bibliometric network visualization maps were used to identify trending topics, citation analysis, and international collaborations. The top 3 contributing countries to the literature were the USA in this respect (800, 24.8%), China (514, 15.9%), and Japan (442, 13.7%). The top 3 most active institutions were the National Institutes of Health USA (n = 177), National Heart Lung Blood Institute (n = 153), and Udice French Research Universities (n = 136). The top 3 most productive journals were the British Journal of Haematology (n = 239), Blood (n = 181), and Bone Marrow Transplantation (n = 137). The most prolific author was Neal Stuart Young (n = 130). Specific keywords that were most frequently used in articles were severe aplastic anemia, immunosuppressive therapy, pediatrics/children, anti-thymocyte globulin, cyclosporine, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, myelodysplastic syndromes, Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria, hepatitis-associated aplastic anemia, allogeneic stem cell transplantation, haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, pancytopenia, eltrombopag, fludarabine, Graft-Versus-Host Disease, survival, apoptosis, cytokines, and cyclophosphamide. It was determined that the trend topics in recent years were eltrombopag, COVID-19, Treg, Th17, thrombopoietin receptor agonists, haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, haploidentical donor/transplantation, and posttransplantation cyclophosphamide. In the formation of the AA literature, it was determined that the research leadership belonged to the USA, China, Japan, European countries (United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, France, Switzerland), India, and South Korea, which have large economies.
目前针对再生障碍性贫血(AA)尚无文献计量学研究。本研究旨在通过对发表的 AA 相关文章进行文献计量分析,总结该主题的知识结构,揭示全球的研究成果,并确定最新的研究趋势。为此,对科学产出的不同研究组成部分(即国家、机构、期刊和作者)的产出进行了分析。使用各种统计方法和文献计量方法对 1980 年至 2022 年间发表的 3221 篇 AA 相关文章进行了分析。采用 Spearman 相关系数进行相关性分析,并使用文献计量网络图来识别趋势主题、引文分析和国际合作。在这方面,对文献贡献最大的 3 个国家是美国(800,24.8%)、中国(514,15.9%)和日本(442,13.7%)。最活跃的 3 个机构是美国国立卫生研究院(n = 177)、美国国立心肺血液研究所(n = 153)和法国公立研究型大学联合体(n = 136)。最具生产力的期刊是英国血液学杂志(n = 239)、血液(n = 181)和骨髓移植(n = 137)。最具影响力的作者是 Neal Stuart Young(n = 130)。文章中最常使用的特定关键词有重型再生障碍性贫血、免疫抑制治疗、儿科/儿童、抗胸腺细胞球蛋白、环孢素、造血干细胞移植、骨髓增生异常综合征、阵发性夜间血红蛋白尿症、肝炎相关性再生障碍性贫血、异基因干细胞移植、单倍体相合造血干细胞移植、全血细胞减少症、艾曲波帕、氟达拉滨、移植物抗宿主病、存活率、细胞凋亡、细胞因子和环磷酰胺。确定近年来的趋势主题是艾曲波帕、COVID-19、Treg、Th17、血小板生成素受体激动剂、单倍体相合造血干细胞移植、单倍体相合供体/移植和移植后环磷酰胺。在 AA 文献的形成过程中,确定研究领导地位属于美国、中国、日本、欧洲国家(英国、意大利、德国、法国、瑞士)、印度和韩国,这些国家都拥有庞大的经济体。
