Abstract
Objective
To make an overview of global research trends in the etiology of auditory neuropathy (AN) over the past 30 years using a bibliometric approach.
Methods
Bibliometric analyses were conducted by GraphPad Prism 9.0, Citespace 6.2.R2, and an online analysis platform to analyze and visualize publications related to etiology of AN from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database from 1996 to 2022. Additionally, genetic factors in human AN were analyzed.
Results
In total, 604 original articles and reviews related to the etiology of AN from the WoSCC were included for bibliometric analysis. The results showed that annual publications and trend on etiology of AN increased linearly from 2000. Among them, the United States and China published nearly 400 records (40.32%). From the 604 records, a total of 752 keywords and 10 clustered network maps were extracted by Citespace, and ‘mutations’ was among the top 10 keywords. Analysis of genetic factors found that more than 30 genes were related to AN, and the latest burst occurred in 2022.
Conclusion
The bibliometric analysis mapped the global research trends and analyzed hotspots for future. The results indicated that the annual publications increased linearly from 2000. Notably, there was a burst in genetic factors in 2022, which identified that genetic factor would remain a focus of future research.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Otology is an open access, peer-reviewed journal that publishes research findings from disciplines related to both clinical and basic science aspects of auditory and vestibular system and diseases of the ear. This journal welcomes submissions describing original experimental research that may improve our understanding of the mechanisms underlying problems of basic or clinical significance and treatment of patients with disorders of the auditory and vestibular systems. In addition to original papers the journal also offers invited review articles on current topics written by leading experts in the field. The journal is of primary importance for all scientists and practitioners interested in audiology, otology and neurotology, auditory neurosciences and related disciplines. Journal of Otology welcomes contributions from scholars in all countries and regions across the world.
