CiteSpace scientific literature visual analysis of research hotspots of Sparganii Rhizoma
AIM To visually analyze the research hotspots and trends of Sparganii Rhizoma in the past 10 years based on the knowledge mapping method to provide references for future research in this field.METHODS The research on Sparganii Rhizoma from January 1st,2012 to January 1st,2022 were selected from CNKI,and the sample literature included in the study was analyzed using CiteSpace software,and the annual publication volume,author collaboration network,institutional collaboration network,keyword co-occurrences,keyword clustering,and keyword emergent mapping were drawn.RESULTS A total of 592 papers were included,and the annual publication volume was relatively stable.The team represented by SHI HY,HOU RJ and LIANG QL was formed,and there was less cooperation among institutions.The keywords with higher frequency include data mining,medication law,Sparganii Rhizoma,etc.,forming 10 clusters.The research hotspots mainly focus on gynecological diseases and tumors,clinical research,mechanism of action,etc.The keyword emergence analysis obtained a total of 43 emergent words,with more research on data mining,clinical research,and treatment of tumors and gynecological diseases,and the laboratory research pays more attention to the extraction of the active ingredient and its active ingredients and the mechanism of action.Laboratory studies paid more attention to the extraction of active ingredients and their active components.CONCLUSION In recent years,the research hotspots of Sparganii Rhizoma mainly focuses on the clinical medication for gynecological and oncological diseases,and gradually extends to the treatment of refractory diseases such as organ fibrosis.In the future,the research direction of Sparganii Rhizoma will tend to be more towards the research of the target mechanism and the summary of the law of medication.
