This review aimed to analyze the trend and main characteristics of articles related to guided endodontics (GE).
The search was conducted in May 2023 on Web of Science. GE-related articles were included, and conferences were excluded. Three researchers selected the articles and extracted: the number of citations; year and journal; design and study theme; authorship and institutions; country and continent. Collaborative networks were generated in the Visualization of Similarities Viewer software. The relationship between data was determined by Spearman's correlation. Google Trends was used to investigate the global popularity of GE research.
The search resulted in 135 articles, of which 85 were included. The most cited article totaled 116 citations. The studies were published between 2016 and 2023, most frequently in 2022 (n = 22). The most prevalent journal was the Journal of Endodontics (n = 28). Case report (n = 38) was the most frequent study design. The most studied theme was the use of static GE for calcified canals (n = 27). Connert T was the author with the highest number of articles (n = 13). The University of Basel (n = 9) stood out. The most prevalent country was Brazil (n = 13). Europe was the most frequent continent (n = 38). Visualization of Similarities Viewer demonstrated an interaction between authors. There was a moderate positive correlation between citations and the impact factor (rho = .483). According to Google Trends, the United States was the country that most researched GE.
Based on this review, a more significant research interest in GE was observed in Europe, addressing the application of GE in locating severely calcified root canals.
本综述旨在分析与引导式牙髓治疗（GE）相关文章的趋势和主要特征。
于2023年5月在科学网进行检索。纳入与GE相关的文章，排除会议文献。三名研究人员筛选文章并提取：被引次数；年份和期刊；设计和研究主题；作者和机构；国家和大洲。在“相似性可视化查看器”软件中生成合作网络。数据之间的关系通过斯皮尔曼相关性确定。利用谷歌趋势调查GE研究的全球关注度。
检索得到135篇文章，其中85篇被纳入。被引次数最多的文章总计被引116次。这些研究发表于2016年至2023年之间，最频繁发表的年份是2022年（n = 22）。最常见的期刊是《牙髓病学杂志》（n = 28）。病例报告（n = 38）是最常见的研究设计。研究最多的主题是静态GE在钙化根管中的应用（n = 27）。Connert T是发文量最多的作者（n = 13）。巴塞尔大学（n = 9）最为突出。最常见的国家是巴西（n = 13）。欧洲是最常见的大洲（n = 38）。“相似性可视化查看器”展示了作者之间的互动。被引次数与影响因子之间存在中度正相关（rho = 0.483）。根据谷歌趋势，美国是对GE研究最多的国家。
基于本综述，观察到欧洲对GE的研究兴趣更为显著，涉及GE在定位严重钙化根管中的应用。
