Visualization Analysis on Research Literature about Non-surgical Treatment of Rotator Cuff Injury from 2010 to 2022
Objective To explore the research status,trend and hotspots of non-surgical treatment in the field of rotator cuff injury;To provide references for clinical application Methods Relevant literature about non-surgical treatment of rotator cuff injury was retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang Data,and VIP from 1st,Jan.2010 to 31st,Dec.2022.CiteSpace 5.8.R3 and VOSviewer 1.6.18 software were used to visualize authors,institutions,and keywords.Results A total of 273 articles were included,involving 790 authors.The authors with high-volume of articles were represented by Yang Mingyu.The research institutions with high-volume of articles were represented by Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine and Anhui University of Chinese Medicine.A total of 281 keywords were involved,and a total of 4 keyword clusters were formed,including physical factor therapy,drug injection treatment,TCM treatment,and rehabilitation treatment.Emergent keywords included hyperbaric oxygen therapy,small needle-knife,warm acupuncture,ucla score,platelet-rich plasma,etc.Conclusion In the past 13 years,the field of non-surgical treatment of rotator cuff injury in China has transitioned from a period of stable development to a period of rapid development.There are various non-surgical treatments for rotator cuff injury,and the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine has significant clinical efficacy.The research hotspots in this field mainly include mechanism,pain trigger theory,data mining,etc.
