Abstract:
Objective To explore the domestic and foreign research status and development trend of post stroke fatigue (PSF) by bibliometric analysis method,in order to provide recommendations for future research in this field.Methods Studies about PSF were retrieved from WanFang database,CNKI,VIP,China Biology Medicine (CBM),PubMed,Ovid,Embase,Google Scholar and authoritative journals in this field from January 1999 to March 2017.The information,including title,country,journal name,first author,publication year,institutions,research field,keywords,types of literature and research methods,was extracted,and statistical analysis was performed by SPSS19.0 and Nvivo11.0 software.Results A total of 279 literatures were included,and the total number of publication literatures showed an upward trend over time.These researches involved 167 institutions and 140 kinds of journals.The maximum number of articles published by the same first author was 9.According to the types of literatures and research methods,foreign literatures were divided into 9 categories which were mainly descriptive researches (95 papers,53.67%);domestic literatures were divided into 6 categories which were mainly interventional studies (39 papers,38.24%).The foreign researches involved 13 subjects which were mainly related to neurology (76 papers,42.94 %) and rehabilitation medicine (27 papers,15.25 %).The domestic researches only involved 5 subjects which were mainly related to neurology (45 papers,44.12 %) and traditional Chinese medicine (34 papers,33.33 %).Many of foreign researches focused on exploring risk factors of PSF,which accounted for about 62.11 % of the descriptive studies,and studies about pathogenesis of PSF have been extended to molecular biology.Domestic researches were more focused on Chinese medicine intervention methods,which accounted for 53.42% (excepting review literatures).Conclusion PSF is still the research focus at home and abroad.Research on pathogenesis of PSF is at an exploratory stage,and there is still a lack of effective intervention method.Compare to foreign countries,subjects of domestic studies in PSF are limited,researches on etiology and mechanism of PSF are ignored,and research method is unitary.
