Qualitative studies.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most devastating injuries to the central nervous system that places a major burden on society. Neuromodulation technology involving spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and sacral nerve modulation (SNM) is a promising technique for patients with SCI. However, there has been no bibliometric analysis of research in this field to date.
Not applicable.
Systematic analyses of countries, institutions, authors, journals, co-cited documents, keywords, genes and diseases were performed. Related gene and disease data from the citexs platform were also reviewed. A total of 7437 articles on SCS and SNM in SCI were retrieved from the Web of Science database. The search time was limited to 1985-01-01 to 2022-12-31.
We identified a significant increase in research output on SCS and SNM in SCI in recent years, with a concentrated period of high publication activity. Multiple publications were identified on neuropathic pain, electronic stimulation, TNF, BDNF and STAT3 gene expression, indicating that complications and potential therapeutic strategies for SCI are a key focus in the field.
Our study provides insights that may help to advance scientific research and potentially improve outcomes in patients with SCI.
定性研究。
脊髓损伤 (SCI) 是对中枢神经系统最具破坏性的损伤之一，给社会带来了重大负担。涉及脊髓刺激 (SCS) 和骶神经调节 (SNM) 的神经调节技术是 SCI 患者的一种有前途的技术。然而，迄今为止，针对该领域的研究尚未进行文献计量分析。
不适用。
对国家、机构、作者、期刊、共引文献、关键词、基因和疾病进行系统分析。还审查了 citexs 平台上的相关基因和疾病数据。从 Web of Science 数据库中检索了关于 SCI 中 SCS 和 SNM 的 7437 篇文章。搜索时间限于 1985-01-01 至 2022-12-31。
我们发现近年来 SCI 中 SCS 和 SNM 的研究产出显著增加，具有集中的高发表活动期。在神经病理性疼痛、电子刺激、TNF、BDNF 和 STAT3 基因表达方面有多项出版物，表明 SCI 的并发症和潜在治疗策略是该领域的一个重点。
我们的研究提供了一些见解，可能有助于推进 SCI 患者的科学研究并可能改善其治疗效果。
