Islet transplantation has developed rapidly over the last 20 years and is becoming one of the ideal clinical treatment options for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). There is growing clinical evidence that islet transplantation has significant efficacy in insulin independence or reduction, preventing hypoglycemic episodes and preventing diabetic complications.However, clinical islet transplantation still faces challenges, such as a shortage of donor resources, difficulties in early implantation and survival of islet grafts, and immune rejection.In the future, donor pancreatic donation and its effective utilization should be promoted, and clinical exploration of xenogeneic islet transplantation and stem cell-derived islet transplantation should be encouraged to effectively solve the problem of insufficient islet source.At the same time, through continuous research and development of new materials and technologies, optimize the location of islet transplantation to improve the implantation and survival of islet grafts, and gradually eliminate the need for immunosuppression.In addition, we should actively promote the development and application of post-islet transplantation graft monitoring tools to further ensure the long-term survival of post-islet transplantation grafts, so that more diabetic patients can benefit from it.

BACKGROUND:Scoliosis mainly refers to sequence abnormalities in the coronal,sagittal,and axial positions of the spine,with a Cobb angle of≥10°.The patients may experience symptoms such as unequal shoulder height and back asymmetry.Severe cases may affect the patient's cardiopulmonary function,thereby affecting their daily life.Conservative treatment can control the progression of scoliosis and avoid later surgery.Scoliosis orthosis is currently a commonly used and effective treatment measure in conservative treatment. OBJECTIVE:To summarize and analyze the current research status,hotspots,and trends of scoliosis orthoses both domestically and internationally,providing reference for related research. METHODS:Using bibliometrics and visual analysis as tools,and using a comparison between China and foreign countries as a method,this paper analyzes the literature on scoliosis orthosis journals in the past decade.Based on bibliometrics,the current status of research on scoliosis orthoses is determined.Citespace software is used to analyze key words and identify the current hotspots and future trends in scoliosis orthosis research. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)At present,the number of literature on scoliosis orthoses is still on a fluctuating upward trend.China and the United States are the main countries for research,with a literature share of over 40%.However,the average citation rate of foreign language literature by Chinese scholars is relatively low.(2)The basic fields of domestic research are mainly surgery and pediatrics,while orthotics and clinical neurology are mainly studied abroad.Among them,there is also a certain number of documents in domestic Chinese medicine,indicating that China is also engaged in the combination of Chinese and Western treatment of scoliosis.The National Natural Science Foundation of China has the highest proportion in the aspect of Chinese and foreign literature,reflecting the importance of the fund attaches to the research of scoliosis orthosis.(3)The authors with the highest number of publications are Qiu Yong and Negrini Stefano,and the most published institutions are the Spinal Surgery Department of Gulou Hospital affiliated to Nanjing University Medical College and UDICE-French Research University.Domestic and foreign authors and institutions have certain communications about this,but not closely,which requires relevant institutions and scholars to further explore and study.(4)From the research hotspots and future trends,the main treatment type is adolescent idiopathic scoliosis,while the production method of the short-column side bending orthosis is three-dimensinoal printing,and the main treatment index is convex progression.The ultimate purpose of treatment is to improve the quality of life of the patients.
