In order to understand the research hotspots and trends in the field of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), our study analyzed the relevant publications from 2003 to 2022 by using bibliometric analysis.
The Citespace 6.2.R3 system was used to analyze the publications collected from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database.
In total, 4,957 publications were included in this study. From 2003 to 2022, the number of publications gradually increased and peaked in 2022. The United States was the country with the most publications, while Harvard University was the most productive institution. The top co-cited journal PEDIATRICS is published by the United States. Author analysis showed that Hellström A was the author with the most publications, while Good WV was the top co-cited author. The co-citation analysis of references showed seven major clusters: genetic polymorphism, neurodevelopmental outcome, threshold retinopathy, oxygen-induced retinopathy, low birth weight infant, prematurity diagnosis cluster and artificial intelligence (AI). For the citation burst analysis, there remained seven keywords in their burst phases until 2022, including ranibizumab, validation, trends, type 1 retinopathy, preterm, deep learning and artificial intelligence.
Intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy and AI-assisted clinical decision-making were two major topics of ROP research, which may still be the research trends in the coming years.
为了解早产儿视网膜病变（ROP）领域的研究热点和趋势，我们的研究通过文献计量分析对2003年至2022年的相关出版物进行了分析。
使用Citespace 6.2.R3系统对从科学网核心合集（WoSCC）数据库收集的出版物进行分析。
本研究共纳入4957篇出版物。2003年至2022年，出版物数量逐渐增加，并在2022年达到峰值。美国是发表出版物最多的国家，而哈佛大学是产出最多的机构。被引频次最高的期刊《儿科学》由美国出版。作者分析表明，Hellström A是发表出版物最多 的作者，而Good WV是被引频次最高的作者。参考文献的共被引分析显示出七个主要聚类：基因多态性、神经发育结局、阈值性视网膜病变、氧诱导性视网膜病变、低出生体重儿、早产诊断聚类和人工智能（AI）。对于引文突发分析，直到2022年仍有七个关键词处于突发阶段，包括雷珠单抗、验证、趋势、1型视网膜病变、早产、深度学习和人工智能。
玻璃体内抗血管内皮生长因子治疗和人工智能辅助临床决策是ROP研究的两个主要主题，这可能仍是未来几年的研究趋势。
