Prostate cancer (PC) contributes to male mortality worldwide. The objective of this study is to comprehensively depict the scientific accomplishments and research trends in nanotechnology for PC applications.
Utilizing the Web of Science Core Collection database, publications were gathered on the basis of inclusion and selection criteria. The publications were analyzed and visualized using VOSviewer, R-studio and CiteSpace software tools.
A total of 1949 studies were incorporated. Farokhzad was the most productive author. The United States and China released 58.13% of the total publications. The Chinese Academy of Sciences was the most influential institution, and the International Journal of Nanomedicine stood out as a prominent journal in this field. The most frequently referenced publication and research subject category were identified. The most extensively investigated area was nanoparticle-based drug delivery, while recent research has focused on anticancer with novel nanocarriers.
A bibliometric analysis in the PC and nanotechnology was conducted between 2004 and 2023. The overview and characteristics of the publications were identified. We discussed the application and restrictions faced by nanotechnology in PC management. The study of nanotechnology in PC treatment needs to be further studied.
前列腺癌（PC）是全球男性死亡的一个原因。本研究的目的是全面描述纳米技术在前列腺癌应用方面的科学成就和研究趋势。
利用科学网核心合集数据库，根据纳入和筛选标准收集出版物。使用VOSviewer、R-studio和CiteSpace软件工具对这些出版物进行分析和可视化处理。
共纳入1949项研究。法罗赫扎德是产出最多的作者。美国和中国发表的论文占总数的58.13%。中国科学院是最具影响力的机构，《国际纳米医学杂志》是该领域的一本著名期刊。确定了被引用最多的出版物和研究主题类别。研究最广泛的领域是基于纳米颗粒的药物递送，而最近的研究集中在新型纳米载体的抗癌作用上。
对2004年至2023年间前列腺癌与纳米技术领域进行了文献计量分析。确定了出版物的概况和特点。我们讨论了纳米技术在前列腺癌管理中面临的应用和限制。纳米技术在前列腺癌治疗方面的研究有待进一步深入。
