Abstract:
【Objective】 To investigate current research hotspots and trends in the field of pediatric diabetes both domestically and globally, in order to provide valuable references for further research in this area. 【Methods】 Web of Science and CNKI were utilized as sources for English and Chinese literature databases to search for relevant papers on pediatric diabetes research from 2013 to 2023. CiteSpace software was then used to analyze the data, allowing for visual analysis of publication numbers, authors, research institutions, keywords, and other relevant content. 【Results】 A total of 6 683 English literature and 1 730 Chinese literature papers were included in the analysis. The number of published English papers showed an overall upward trend, while the number of published Chinese papers exhibited an initial rise before 2016 followed by a decline. The University of Colorado System had the highest number of international publications, and the Endocrinology Department of Tianjin Children′s Hospital had the highest number of domestic publications. Keyword analysis revealed that in English literature, "glycemic control", "prevalence", "risk", "body mass index", "adherence", "trends", and "continuous glucose monitoring" were among the prominent keywords, highlighting current research hotspots and trends in pediatric diabetes. In contrast, in Chinese literature, keywords such as "insulin", "diabetic ketoacidosis", "nursing", "obesity", "quality of life", "insulin resistance", and "metabolic syndrome" were identified as key research areas and trends in pediatric diabetes. 【Conclusions】 There has been a significant increase in research on pediatric diabetes in recent years, both domestically and globally, with the research scope continuously expanding and new hot topics emerging, particularly concerning obesity, nursing, and quality of life. However, there still exists a disparity between the depth and breadth of research conducted domestically versus globally.
