Abstract:
Objective To analyze the research status,development trends and hotspots in the field of corticomuscular coherence(CMC).Methods Relevant literatures on CMC from 1999 to 2024 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection.CiteSpace 6.3R1 was ued to evaluate publications across multiple dimensions,including publication volume,countries/regions,institutions,authors,cited journals,cited references and keywords.Research hotspots and fron-tier dynamics were identified through keyword co-occurrence,clustering and bursting.Results A total of 447 articles were included.The overall publication trend for CMC research showed a fluctuating up-ward trajectory,peaking in 2023.China led in publication volume but exhibited relatively low centrality and inter-national collaboration.Germany led the way in academic influence.Aalto University and the University of Lon-don served as academic hubs for CMC research.The most influential research team,led by Mathieu Bourgui-gnon,focused on the physiological mechanisms and motor control applications of CMC.The Journal of Physiolo-gy-London was identified as the most impactful journal in the CMC field.CMC research spaned from molecular mechanisms to system-level behavior,delving into the interdisciplinary nexus of neuroscience and motor science while gradually extending to foundational studies in psychology and biology.High-interest keywords included synchronization,motor cortex and precision grip task.Current research hotspots encompassed connectivity,reor-ganization and activation.Future research was predicted to focus on advancements in CMC technology,interven-tions for neurological disorders,brain-muscle interaction mechanisms and signal processing.Conclusion CMC research has rapidly progressed in recent years,becoming a pivotal direction in motor function assess-ment and neurorehabilitation.Future studies should focus on optimizing CMC analytical techniques to enhance their application in brain-computer interfaces and personalized rehabilitation.Additionally,interdisciplinary col-laboration and international exchange should be strengthened to improve research quality and global impact.
