Patients undergoing chemotherapy often encounter troubling and common side effects, notably Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). This side effect not only impairs the patient's quality of life but could also result in the interruption or discontinuation of the chemotherapy treatment. Consequently, research into CINV has consistently remained a focal point in the realm of clinical medicine. In this research domain, bibliometric analysis has not been conducted. The purpose of this study is to deliver a thorough summary of the knowledge framework and key areas of interest in the field of Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, using bibliometric methods. This approach aims to furnish novel concepts and pathways for investigators working in this area.
Publications focusing on Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, spanning from 2004 to 2023, were identified using the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. Tools such as VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and the R package "bibliometrix" were employed for this bibliometric analysis.
This research covers 734 publications from 61 countries, with the United States and China being the primary contributors. There has been a significant rise in the volume of papers published in the most recent decade compared to the one before it, spanning over the past twenty years. However, the annual publication rate in the last ten years has not shown a significant upward trend. The University of Toronto, Merck & Co., Sun Yat-sen University, and Helsinn Healthcare SA emerged as the principal research institutions in this field. Supportive Care in Cancer stands out as the most frequently published and cited journal in this domain. These works are contributed by 3,917 authors, with Rudolph M Navari, Matti Aapro, Shimokawa Mototsugu, and Lee Schwartzberg being among those who have published the most. Paul J. Hesketh is notably the most co-cited author. The primary focus of this research field lies in exploring the mechanisms of CINV and the therapeutic strategies for managing it. Key emerging research hotspots are represented by terms such as "Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting," "nausea," "vomiting," "chemotherapy," and "antiemetics."
This represents the inaugural bibliometric study to thoroughly outline the research trends and advancements in the field of CINV. It highlights the latest research frontiers and trending directions, offering valuable insights for scholars engaged in studying CINV.
接受化疗的患者经常会遇到令人困扰且常见的副作用，尤其是化疗引起的恶心和呕吐（CINV）。这种副作用不仅会损害患者的生活质量，还可能导致化疗治疗的中断或停止。因此，对CINV的研究一直是临床医学领域的一个焦点。在这个研究领域，尚未进行文献计量分析。本研究的目的是使用文献计量方法，全面总结化疗引起的恶心和呕吐领域的知识框架和关键研究热点。这种方法旨在为该领域的研究人员提供新的概念和途径。
使用科学引文索引核心合集（WoSCC）数据库识别2004年至2023年期间聚焦于化疗引起的恶心和呕吐的出版物。使用VOSviewer、CiteSpace和R包“bibliometrix”等工具进行文献计量分析。
本研究涵盖了来自61个国家的734篇出版物，美国和中国是主要贡献者。与之前二十年相比，最近十年发表的论文数量有显著增长。然而，过去十年的年发表率并未呈现出显著的上升趋势。多伦多大学、默克公司、中山大学和 Helsinn Healthcare SA 是该领域的主要研究机构。《癌症支持治疗》是该领域发表和被引用频率最高的期刊。这些作品由3917位作者贡献，鲁道夫·M·纳瓦里、马蒂·阿apro、下川元次和李·施瓦茨伯格是发表量最多的作者之一。保罗·J·赫斯基思是被引用次数最多的作者。该研究领域的主要重点在于探索CINV的机制及其管理的治疗策略。关键的新兴研究热点以“化疗引起的恶心和呕吐”、“恶心”、“呕吐”、“化疗”和“止吐药”等术语为代表。
这是首次全面概述CINV领域研究趋势和进展的文献计量研究。它突出了最新的研究前沿和趋势方向，为从事CINV研究的学者提供了有价值的见解。
