Abstract:
Objective To understand the research status of osteoimmunology by a bibliometric study and provide reference for potential research hotspots in the future. Methods The articles and reviews related to osteoimmunology were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection with the time interval from 2002 to 2022.VOSviewer,CiteSpace,and the Bibliometrix package in R were used to analyze the contributions and co-citation relationships of countries/regions,institutions,journals,authors,references,and keywords,and identify research hotspots. Results A total of 812 English-language articles published between 2002 and 2022 were collected,and the annual number of articles was increasing year by year.China had the most articles (n=233,28.69%),followed by the United States and Japan.Sichuan University had the highest number of articles (n=35,4.27%).Takayanagi H ranked first among both publishing authors and co-cited authors.Froniters in Immunology was the journal publishing the highest number of articles (n=45,impact factor of 7.3 in 2023) in this field.The clustering of key nodes and identification of keywords in co-cited references indicated that the research of osteoimmunology mainly focused on signal transduction mechanisms of bone immunity,bone immunity-mediated diseases,and drug treatment.In recent years,the research hotspots of osteoimmunology included macrophage polarization,bone biomaterials,bone regeneration,and therapy. Conclusion This study employed bibliometric methods to comprehensively analyze the countries,institutions,authors,keywords,and references of articles in osteoimmunology,providing guidance and reference for researchers engaged in this field.
