Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the research literature related to end tuberculosis (TB) using bibliometric methods, so as to provide researchers with insights into current research trends and hotspots in this field.Methods:A search was conducted using the Web of Science core collection data base on March 5, 2024. The research was limited to articles and reviews published between 2014 and 2023. The results were visualized with VOSviewer, and an analysis was performed on the involved national, international research cooperation networks and keyword clustering.Results:A total of 1 092 articles related to end TB research were retrieved and screened, with a total citation counts of 14 871 and an average citation counts of 13.62 per article. The United States of America had the highest number of publications (328 articles, 30.04%), while China ranked seventh (100 articles, 9.16%). International scientific collaboration network analysis indicated that countries primarily included the United Kindom, the United States of America, Switzerland, South Africa, the Netherlands, Australia, and India, which had formed close cooperation in the field of end TB research. Keyword clustering analysis suggested that current research hotspots in end TB field included cost analysis related to TB, management of latent TB individuals, strategies for TB prevention and control, key technologies in TB elimination, and TB epidemiology and associated risk factors.Conclusions:Over the past decade, the number of publications and citations in the field of end TB is relatively high. International research collaboration has been extensive, and the research content covers multiple dimensions, including the management and cost analysis of different disease stages, technological innovations, considerations for comprehensive control strategy, and epidemiology.
