In recent decades, new non-invasive brain stimulation techniques and protocols have been developed, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation.
To identify and visualize the intellectual structure of non-invasive brain stimulation through document co-citation analysis.
We analyzed 30,854 Web of Science-indexed manuscripts and their 1,615,692 references regarding non-invasive brain stimulation, all published from 1988 to 2022. We drew a document co-citation network map using CiteSpace software.
The most productive journal was Clinical Neurophysiology. The most published institution was the University College London, and the country with the most reports was the USA. The most productive author was Alvaro Pascual-Leone and the most cited author in the non-invasive brain stimulation field was J. C. Rothwell. In addition, the most cited study was that of Rossi et al. (2009). The safe application of non-invasive brain stimulation techniques and their effects on motor or executive functions is an emerging trend in this research area.
The current investigation displayed a quantitative scientometric approach and delved into the advancement of non-invasive brain stimulation research by examining the references published in this domain. These findings can be valuable for professionals to picture the patterns of recognition and emerging directions in the field.
近几十年来，新的非侵入性脑刺激技术和方案得到了发展，如经颅磁刺激和经颅直流电刺激。
通过文献共被引分析来识别和可视化非侵入性脑刺激的知识结构。
我们分析了 30854 篇在 Web of Science 索引中收录的、关于非侵入性脑刺激的论文及其 1615692 条参考文献，这些论文均发表于 1988 年至 2022 年。我们使用 CiteSpace 软件绘制了文献共被引网络图。
最具生产力的期刊是《临床神经生理学》。发表文献最多的机构是伦敦大学学院，发表文献最多的国家是美国。最具生产力的作者是 Alvaro Pascual-Leone，该领域被引最多的作者是 J. C. Rothwell。此外，被引最多的研究是 Rossi 等人（2009 年）的研究。非侵入性脑刺激技术的安全应用及其对运动或执行功能的影响是非侵入性脑刺激研究领域的一个新兴趋势。
本研究采用定量科学计量学方法，通过分析该领域发表的参考文献，深入探讨了非侵入性脑刺激研究的进展。这些发现对于专业人士了解该领域的认知模式和新兴方向具有重要价值。
