Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the clinical studies on sacral nerve stimulation based on PubMed database and summarize its research status and clinical characteristics. Methods:Literatures about sacral nerve stimulation were collected from PubMed database before December 31, 2019. HistCite software was used to analyze the published year, published periodicals, published country and research institutions. Pajek software principal path analysis was used to identify the evolution direction of hot topics. The spectrum of diseases, therapeutic outcomes, stimulation methods and stimulation parameters were summarized. Results:A total of 96 articles were included. The number of publications increased significantly since 2000 and reached its peak in 2014 to 2015. The literatures with most influence were published in 2000 to 2001. All the literatures published in 32 journals, the top two were Urology and Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, which published 17 and 22 articles, respectively. The literatures came from 16 countries, and the top three were the United State (17 articles), the Netherlands (13) and the United Kingdom (13). Among the 211 institutes involved, Aarhus University Hospital (Denmark, twelve articles) and St. Marks Hospital (United Kingdom, nine) were the top two. The study involved 16 diseases, mainly about fecal incontinence, urinary incontinence and urination, shifted from urinary system diseases to digestive system diseases. 91.67% of the study corroborated the benefit of sacral nerve stimulation. Implanted stimulation (77 articles) was the most used, and transdermal stimulation (10 articles) was the second. The parameters were depending on the disease and the mode of stimulation. Conclusion:Sacral nerve stimulation can effectively improve the function of pelvic floor, which may be focused for a long time. Non-implantable sacral nerve stimulation would become the new research topic.
