Dysplastic nevi are pigmented lesions that exhibit clinical and histological features of both common nevi and melanoma. In recent years, there has been an increase in publications on dysplastic nevi. Bibliometric analysis is a method of evaluating trends in large number of publications and identifying popular topics.
The objective of this study is to provide an overview of the landscape of publications related to dysplastic nevi, visualize trends and identify popular topics in the literature.
Thomson Reuters' Web of Science database was searched with the following query in title, abstract or keywords: TS = ("dysplastic nevus" OR "clark nevus" OR "atypical nevus" OR "dysplastic nevi" OR "clark nevi" OR "atypical nevi"). Time span was set to 1992-2022. Document type was set to Article. Titles, authors, abstracts, institutions, countries, journals, references, and the citation information were recorded.
Although the number of publications has declined over time, the USA remains the leading contributor to published articles. Key clusters of frequently used keywords were identified. The Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology had the highest number of published titles. Country and journal analysis were supplemented by co-citation and co-cited reference cluster analysis. Burst analyses revealed authors like Kittler, Argenziano, and Gandini as significant contributors, with their works receiving strong citation bursts extending until the end of the study period.
This bibliometric analysis revealed trends and interest pockets in the literature pertaining to dysplastic nevi and melanoma. This study aids in understanding the current research landscape and highlights potential future directions in this field.
发育异常痣是一种色素沉着性病变，具有普通痣和黑色素瘤的临床及组织学特征。近年来，关于发育异常痣的出版物数量有所增加。文献计量分析是一种评估大量出版物趋势并识别热门话题的方法。
本研究的目的是概述与发育异常痣相关的出版物情况，可视化趋势并识别文献中的热门话题。
在汤森路透的科学网数据库中，以标题、摘要或关键词进行如下查询：TS =（“发育异常痣”或“克拉克痣”或“非典型痣”或“发育异常痣（复数）”或“克拉克痣（复数）”或“非典型痣（复数）”）。时间跨度设定为1992 - 2022年。文献类型设定为文章。记录标题、作者、摘要、机构、国家、期刊、参考文献及引用信息。
尽管出版物数量随时间有所下降，但美国仍是发表文章的主要贡献国。确定了常用关键词的关键聚类。《美国皮肤病学会杂志》发表的标题数量最多。通过共被引和共引参考文献聚类分析对国家和期刊分析进行了补充。爆发分析显示，基特勒、阿根齐亚诺和甘迪尼等作者是重要贡献者，他们的作品获得了强烈的引用爆发，一直持续到研究期结束。
这项文献计量分析揭示了与发育异常痣和黑色素瘤相关文献的趋势和热点领域。本研究有助于了解当前的研究状况，并突出该领域未来潜在的发展方向。
