Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer worldwide, and its lack of specific symptoms presents a significant challenge for early diagnosis. Therefore, the identification and detection of precancerous lesions of gastric cancer (PLGC) are essential for its prevention. We performed a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to explore the research trends and emerging topics in this field, aiming to deepen our understanding of PLGC.
This study utilizes a bibliometric approach with network analysis to explore the progress and trends in PLGC research. The findings aim to provide a foundation and guidance for further in-depth investigations into PLGC.
This study used VOSviewer and CiteSpace software to collect relevant literature on PLGC from the Web of Science Core Collection, covering the period from 2005 to 2024. Data visualization analysis was performed on the number of publications, countries, institutions, journals, authors, keywords, and citation counts of these articles.
A total of 1,141 relevant articles were included in the analysis. The results showed a year-on-year increase in the number of publications from 2005 to 2024. The country, institution, author, and journal with the highest publication output in this field were China, Peking University, Wei-Cheng You, and , respectively. The most frequently occurring keywords in the PLGC field were "Helicobacter pylori," "intestinal metaplasia," "risk," "infection," and "atrophic gastritis." Additionally, "chronic atrophic gastritis" and "inflammation" have emerged as hot topics for future research.
This bibliometric analysis highlights the hot topics and emerging trends in PLGC research, aiming to provide valuable guidance for future studies. Our findings indicate that mechanistic studies and clinical diagnosis will be key areas of focus in upcoming research.
胃癌是全球第五大常见癌症，因其缺乏特异性症状，给早期诊断带来了重大挑战。因此，识别和检测胃癌癌前病变（PLGC）对其预防至关重要。我们进行了全面的文献计量分析，以探索该领域的研究趋势和新兴主题，旨在加深我们对PLGC的理解。
本研究采用文献计量学方法结合网络分析，探讨PLGC研究的进展和趋势。研究结果旨在为进一步深入研究PLGC提供基础和指导。
本研究使用VOSviewer和CiteSpace软件从科学网核心合集中收集有关PLGC的相关文献，涵盖2005年至2024年期间。对这些文章的发表数量、国家、机构、期刊、作者、关键词和被引频次进行数据可视化分析。
分析共纳入1141篇相关文章。结果显示，2005年至2024年期间发表数量逐年增加。该领域发表量最高的国家、机构、作者和期刊分别是中国、北京大学、尤卫平（音译）和《》（此处原文期刊名缺失）。PLGC领域最常出现的关键词是“幽门螺杆菌”“肠化生”“风险”“感染”和“萎缩性胃炎”。此外，“慢性萎缩性胃炎”和“炎症”已成为未来研究的热点话题。
本文献计量分析突出了PLGC研究的热点话题和新兴趋势，旨在为未来研究提供有价值的指导。我们的研究结果表明，机制研究和临床诊断将是未来研究的关键重点领域。
