Various factors play crucial roles in aneurysm development and prognosis. Macrophages have recently emerged as a major research focus. Despite the numerous studies on the role and function of macrophages in aneurysm pathogenesis, no bibliometric analyses have focused on this topic.
This study aimed to analyze articles related to macrophages and aneurysms to reveal trends, hotspots, and new frontiers in macrophage-related aneurysm research.
We retrieved and incorporated 1211 articles from the Science Citation Index Expanded database of the Web of Science Core Collection between 1999 and 2022. The data were analyzed and visualized using CiteSpace and VOSviewer, and Microsoft Excel 2019 was used to plot the data.
The most influential articles were published between 1999 and 2022, with a total citation count of 43870. This study encompassed a comprehensive analysis of 74 research directions. The year with the highest number of publications was 2021 when 109 articles were published. 'ARTERIOSCLEROSIS THROMBOSIS AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY' journal has made significant contributions by publishing the highest number of articles (99 articles), while funding support primarily came from the National Institutes of Health and United States Department of Health and Human Services. The United States exerted a substantial influence within this field, with a total publication count of 453 publications and the highest centrality value (0.63). Recent studies have focused on understanding the developmental processes underlying aneurysms and devising preventive measures to effectively impede disease progression.
Our analysis demonstrates the rapid growth in research exploring the relationship between macrophages and aneurysms over the past two decades. Continued exploration and collaboration among different specialties and manufacturers will facilitate innovative approaches for effective management strategies that target patients with diverse forms of aneurysms.
多种因素在动脉瘤的发生发展及预后中起着关键作用。巨噬细胞最近已成为主要的研究焦点。尽管关于巨噬细胞在动脉瘤发病机制中的作用和功能已有众多研究，但尚无文献计量分析聚焦于此主题。
本研究旨在分析与巨噬细胞和动脉瘤相关的文章，以揭示巨噬细胞相关动脉瘤研究的趋势、热点和新前沿。
我们从1999年至2022年的Web of Science核心合集的科学引文索引扩展数据库中检索并纳入了1211篇文章。使用CiteSpace和VOSviewer对数据进行分析和可视化处理，并使用Microsoft Excel 2019绘制数据图表。
最具影响力的文章发表于1999年至2022年之间，总被引次数为43870次。本研究涵盖了对74个研究方向的全面分析。发表文章数量最多的年份是2021年，当年发表了109篇文章。《动脉硬化血栓形成和血管生物学》杂志发表的文章数量最多（99篇），做出了重大贡献，而资金支持主要来自美国国立卫生研究院和美国卫生与公众服务部。美国在该领域具有重大影响力，总发表文章数为453篇，中心性值最高（0.63）。近期研究集中于了解动脉瘤的发展过程并制定预防措施，以有效阻碍疾病进展。
我们的分析表明，在过去二十年中，探索巨噬细胞与动脉瘤之间关系的研究迅速增长。不同专业和制造商之间的持续探索与合作将促进创新方法的产生，以制定针对不同类型动脉瘤患者的有效管理策略。
