Abstract:
Objective To delineate the current research landscape,emerging hotspots,and frontiers re-garding the relationship between the oral microbiome and digestive system diseases.Methods We retrieved publications from the Web of Science Core Collection database using topic-specific queries on"oral microbi-ome"and"digestive diseases."Bibliometric analysis was performed using VOSviewer,CiteSpace,and the"bibliometrix"package in R for data mining and visualization.Results A total of 1228 eligible articles were included.Analysis revealed that research on the correlation between oral microbiota and digestive system diseases will remain a global hotspot.Academic institutions dominated the publications,with centralized institutional distribution and team-based collaboration,though overall collaboration networks remained fragmented.Geo-graphically,the United States emerged as the leading contributor,followed by China and the United Kingdom.While China-U.S.collaborations were prominent,China's engagement with other regions remained limited.Current research hotspots focus on the interplay between oral microbiota and gut microbiota,inflam-matory bowel disease(IBD),and digestive system tumors.Conclusions Research in this field demonstrates high activity and diversity.Studies on the associations of oral microbiota with gut microbiota,IBD,and diges-tive system tumors(particularly esophageal,gastric,pancreatic,and colorectal cancers)remain prominent.Future studies should prioritize elucidating underlying mechanisms and innovating in biomarker discovery and application.However,insufficient collaboration and resource-sharing among institutions currently hinder pro-gress in this field.
