INTRODUCTION: Digital interventions show considerable promise in managing non-communicable diseases (NCDs) within primary healthcare. AIM: The aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of research on digital interventions for individuals living with NCDs. METHODOLOGY: This study explores digital interventions in NCDs through a bibliometric analysis from 2014 to 2024. Carefully designed search queries targeted primary and combined terms to cover a wide range of NCDs, including cancer, diabetes, and hypertension. SCOPUS searches yielded 9,572 English-language articles, refined by excluding non-relevant works and duplicates. Metadata, including authorship, keywords, and citations, was extracted for analysis. Using Biblioshiny and VosViewer, the study examined publication trends, telemedicine applications, and the knowledge framework of the field. Conceptual themes were identified through co-occurrence mapping, intellectual structures via co-citation networks, and social structures through collaboration patterns among authors, institutions, and countries. RESULTS: The upward trend in research on digital interventions and NCDs accelerated significantly after 2018, peaking in 2021, followed by a slight decline. Medicine dominates this field, with considerable contributions from biochemistry, health professions, and engineering. The most prolific authors, primarily from the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia, have significantly shaped this research area. Institutional contributions are led by Harvard Medical School and other global leaders, reflecting strong inter-institutional collaborations. The United States and the United Kingdom are the most productive countries, with the Journal of Medical Internet Research standing out as the leading publication. Keyword analysis reveals a focus on telemedicine, COVID-19, tele-health, and digital health. Co-citation analyses identify key intellectual frameworks, while co-authorship and institutional collaborations highlight robust global networks. Emerging trends emphasize AI, digital health tools, and patient self-management, underscoring a transformative shift in addressing NCDs through technology-driven interventions. The findings highlight the need for patient-centered applications, improved implementation strategies, and strengthened collaborations, especially in underrepresented regions, to enhance the global impact of digital interventions for NCDs.
引言:数字干预措施在初级医疗保健中管理非传染性疾病(NCDs)方面显示出巨大潜力。 目的:本研究的目的是对针对非传染性疾病患者的数字干预措施研究进行全面的文献计量分析。 方法:本研究通过对2014年至2024年的文献计量分析来探索非传染性疾病中的数字干预措施。精心设计的搜索查询针对主要术语和组合术语,以涵盖广泛的非传染性疾病,包括癌症、糖尿病和高血压。Scopus搜索产生了9572篇英文文章,通过排除不相关作品和重复文章进行了精炼。提取了包括作者、关键词和引用在内的元数据进行分析。使用Biblioshiny和VosViewer,该研究考察了出版趋势、远程医疗应用以及该领域的知识框架。通过共现映射确定概念主题,通过共引网络确定知识结构,通过作者、机构和国家之间的合作模式确定社会结构。 结果:2018年后,数字干预措施与非传染性疾病研究的上升趋势显著加速,在2021年达到峰值,随后略有下降。医学在该领域占主导地位,生物化学、卫生专业和工程学也做出了相当大的贡献。最多产的作者主要来自美国、英国和澳大利亚,他们对这一研究领域产生了重大影响。机构贡献由哈佛医学院和其他全球领先机构引领,反映出强大的机构间合作。美国和英国是最具生产力的国家,《医学互联网研究杂志》是领先的出版物。关键词分析显示关注远程医疗、COVID-19、远程健康和数字健康。共引分析确定了关键的知识框架,而共同作者和机构合作突出了强大的全球网络。新兴趋势强调人工智能、数字健康工具和患者自我管理,凸显了通过技术驱动干预措施应对非传染性疾病的变革性转变。研究结果强调需要以患者为中心的应用、改进的实施策略以及加强合作,特别是在代表性不足的地区,以增强数字干预措施对全球非传染性疾病的影响。
