Abstract:
Objective To analyze the literature on drug treatment pathways to sort out the development process,and to present the research status,hotspots,and trends.Methods Researches on drug treatment pathways were retrieved from the WoSCC,CNKI,Wanfang Database,and VIP Chinese Journal Database from the time of database establishment to October 312024.The CiteSpace 6.3.R1 and VOSviewer 1.6.20 were used to generate visual maps,including publications,countries,journals,institutions,authors,and keywords.Results A total of 150 papers were included,45 in Chinese and 105 in English.The number of Chinese and English research publications has increased significantly in the past five years.The United States has the largest number of publications in this field.There is relatively little cooperation among domestic research groups,but international cooperation is closer.In Chinese journals,research topics in this field mainly focus on the whole process from formulation to implementation of drug treatment pathways.Perioperative drug use,chronic drug use,and adjuvant drug use are research hotspots.In recent years,attention to clinical pharmacists and evidence-based pharmacy has increased.English journals mainly focus on cancer treatment-related research,with current research focusing on patient experience and social benefits.Conclusion Research in the field of drug treatment pathways in English journals is developing rapidly,but no core journal area has been formed specifically in this area.At present,the research on drug treatment pathways in Chinese journals is in its initial stage and is advancing rapidly,but the overall number is still relatively small,the research content and diseases involved are limited,and the research system is not perfect.Chinese researchers should pay attention to the research hotspot,broaden the research topic and further improve the quantity and quality of the research in this field.
