Abstract:
Objective:To systematically summarize the development trajectory and evolving trends of mobile health technologies in the field of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) both domestically and internationally, providing a reference for future research in this area.Methods:CiteSpace 6.1.R6 software was used to perform a visual analysis of relevant domestic and international literature on T2DM mobile health technologies indexed in China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, VIP, and Web of Science core collection. The search period was from 2004 to 2023.Results:A total of 575 Chinese and 771 English articles were included. Overall publication volume showed a steady increase, but global research levels were uneven. High-output countries and institutions were mainly concentrated in developed countries such as the United States, but cooperation was relatively loose. The key categories for both Chinese and English keywords included application population, application type, research tools, influencing factors, and disease management models. The research frontiers both domestically and internationally are "Internet+" and digital health.Conclusions:Mobile health technologies have become an integral part of routine healthcare services for T2DM patients. However, there is still a certain gap between domestic and international research. China should timely focus on the research hotspots and frontiers in this field, actively participate in global collaborations, and improve the depth and breadth of research.
