Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is prevalent and associated with the development of various gastric diseases. On the other hand, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an immune-related intestinal disorder influenced by factors like gut microbiota imbalance, genetic predisposition, and environmental influences. Despite extensive research on the H. pylori-IBD relationship, a comprehensive bibliometric analysis in this area is lacking. Therefore, this study aims to use bibliometric methods to explore research trends, hotspots, and frontiers in H. pylori and IBD-related research, offering valuable insights for future research and clinical practice.
We retrieved relevant literature on H. pylori and IBD from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) and Scopus databases covering 2007 to 2024. We perform a comprehensive analysis within the WoSCC literature. We compare these findings with relevant results from Scopus.
Research on H. pylori and IBD has remained prominent in recent years. The United States leads in output, with strong contributions from authors, institutions, and journals. China, despite being a developing country, shows rapid article growth, signaling growing research potential. Key topics include Crohn's disease, gut microbiota, H. pylori infection, and ulcerative colitis. Newer interests include health, cancer prevention, and chronic gastritis.
Over the past, research on H. pylori and IBD has primarily centered around epidemiology and clinical studies. The question of whether H. pylori definitively offers protective effects against IBD remains unresolved. Therefore, further investigation could explore the underlying mechanisms of their relationship or initiate long-term prospective cohort studies to gather more compelling evidence.
幽门螺杆菌（H. pylori）感染普遍存在，且与多种胃部疾病的发生有关。另一方面，炎症性肠病（IBD）是一种与免疫相关的肠道疾病，受肠道微生物群失衡、遗传易感性和环境影响等因素的影响。尽管对幽门螺杆菌与炎症性肠病的关系进行了广泛研究，但该领域缺乏全面的文献计量分析。因此，本研究旨在运用文献计量方法探索幽门螺杆菌与炎症性肠病相关研究的趋势、热点和前沿，为未来研究和临床实践提供有价值的见解。
我们从科学网核心合集（WoSCC）和Scopus数据库中检索了2007年至2024年期间有关幽门螺杆菌和炎症性肠病的相关文献。我们在WoSCC文献中进行了全面分析。我们将这些结果与Scopus的相关结果进行比较。
近年来，幽门螺杆菌与炎症性肠病的研究一直很突出。美国在产出方面领先，作者、机构和期刊都做出了巨大贡献。中国虽是发展中国家，但文章增长迅速，显示出研究潜力不断增长。关键主题包括克罗恩病、肠道微生物群、幽门螺杆菌感染和溃疡性结肠炎。新的研究兴趣包括健康、癌症预防和慢性胃炎。
过去，幽门螺杆菌与炎症性肠病的研究主要集中在流行病学和临床研究上。幽门螺杆菌是否对炎症性肠病具有明确的保护作用这一问题仍未解决。因此，进一步的研究可以探索它们之间关系的潜在机制，或开展长期前瞻性队列研究以收集更有说服力的证据。
