    A Bibliometric Analysis of the Articles Published in the Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Journal (1976-2023).
    Lanfei Bai, Ke Chen.
       BACKGROUND: Despite the important role of the Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (APS) journal in the field of aesthetic plastic surgery, there is a notable absence of literature that focuses exclusively on the bibliometric analysis of this journal. In recognition of APS's 48 years of publishing, this study aims to perform a bibliometric analysis of the articles published in the APS (1976-2023).
    METHODS: Articles published in the APS were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection database. VOSviewer was employed to perform bibliometric analyses. Microsoft Excel was utilized to analyse the publication and citation trends.
    RESULTS: From 1976 to 2023, 5134 articles were published in the APS. These articles were contributed by 12,963 researchers from 3354 institutions across 91 countries. The USA and China were the leading contributors. The most prolific author is Luan Jie from China. The co-citation networks highlighted the influence of the journal Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. We categorized the articles into four groups, and the results show that articles with the highest publications and citations in the APS are related to facial cosmetic surgery. In terms of specific surgical procedures, breast augmentation surgery has garnered consistent attention from researchers over the past 48 years, ranking first in both the number of publications and citations.
    CONCLUSION: The findings of this study indicate that the APS is a significant scientific journal, is widely utilized by global researchers in the field of aesthetic plastic surgery, and spans diverse knowledge domains.

       Objectives: To conduct the first bibliometric analysis of retinoblastoma research in Türkiye and identify leading institutions, authors, collaboration patterns, and potential growth areas.
    Materials and Methods: We conducted a search on international databases (Web of Science [WoS] and Scopus), a national database (TR Dizin), and gray literature sources (thesis/Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye project reports). Data were cleaned and analyzed using bibliometric tools, including Open Refine and VOSviewer. Bibliometric indicators such as number of publications, journals, h-index, collaboration patterns, and co-occurrence of keywords were examined.
    Results: A search of WoS and Scopus entries published between 1966 and 2024 yielded 122 relevant publications, with articles (n=78, 63.9%) being the most common document type. More than two-thirds of the publications were from 4 institutions: İstanbul University (n=48, 23.8%), Hacettepe University (n=34, 16.8%), Ankara University (n=33, 16.3%), and İstanbul University-Cerrahpaşa (n=22, 10.9%). The total number of citations was 1,148, with an average of 10.16 per publication and an h-index of 16. Excluding 8 internationally collaborated articles, the citations and h-index decreased to 661 and 14, respectively. Pediatric Blood & Cancer was the most preferred journal, with 22 publications (19.5%). The national database search yielded 18 publications with 0 citations. Of 29 relevant theses, only 4 (13.8%) were published. The estimated publication growth predicted an increase in publication numbers per year until 2030.
    Conclusion: This study represents the first bibliometric analysis of retinoblastoma research conducted in Türkiye. Our findings underscore the concentration of research in a few institutions, the importance of international collaborations, and the potential for growth in particular areas. Addressing these areas strategically can empower Turkish researchers to enhance their contributions to the field and improve patient care.

    Liang Zhang, Dongyu Li, Shiyang Bao.
       BACKGROUND: Macrophages are key regulators of the inflammatory and innate immune responses. Researchers have shown that aberrant expression of macrophages contributes to the development of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). However, a comprehensive bibliometric analysis exploring the research status and knowledge mapping of this area is lacking. This study aimed to explore the research status, knowledge mapping and hotspots of macrophages in AAA research from a bibliometric perspective.
    METHODS: In this study, we retrieved articles published between 2000 and 2022 on macrophages associated with AAA research from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. The retrieved literature data were further analyzed using Citespace and VOSviewer software.
    RESULTS: A total of 918 qualified publications related to AAA-associated macrophages were retrieved. The number of publications in this field has been increasing annually. China and the United States were the 2 main drivers in this field, contributing to more than 64% of the publications. In addition, the US had the most publications, top institutions, and expert researchers, dominating in research on macrophages in AAA. The Harvard University was the most productive institution, with 60 publications. The journal with the most publications was Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology (86). Daugherty Alan was the most prolific author (28 publications) and he was also the most cited co- author. Furthermore, the exploration of established animal models, macrophage-related inflammatory-microenvironment, macrophage-related immune mechanism, clinical translation and molecular imaging research remained future research directions in this field.
    CONCLUSIONS: Our findings offered new insights for scholars in this field. They will help researchers explore new directions for their work.

    Research hotspots and frontiers of machine learning in renal medicine: a bibliometric and visual analysis from 2013 to 2024.
    Feng Li, ChangHao Hu, Xu Luo.
       BACKGROUND: The kidney, an essential organ of the human body, can suffer pathological damage that can potentially have serious adverse consequences on the human body and even affect life. Furthermore, the majority of kidney-induced illnesses are frequently not readily identifiable in their early stages. Once they have progressed to a more advanced stage, they impact the individual's quality of life and burden the family and broader society. In recent years, to solve this challenge well, the application of machine learning techniques in renal medicine has received much attention from researchers, and many results have been achieved in disease diagnosis and prediction. Nevertheless, studies that have conducted a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the field have yet to be identified.
    OBJECTIVES: This study employs bibliometric and visualization analyses to assess the progress of the application of machine learning in the renal field and to explore research trends and hotspots in the field.
    METHODS: A search was conducted using the Web of Science Core Collection database, which yielded articles and review articles published from the database's inception to May 12, 2024. The data extracted from these articles and review articles were then analyzed. A bibliometric and visualization analysis was conducted using the VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and Bibliometric (R-Tool of R-Studio) software.
    RESULTS: 2,358 papers were retrieved and analyzed for this topic. From 2013 to 2024, the number of publications and the frequency of citations in the relevant research areas have exhibited a consistent and notable increase annually. The data set comprises 3734 institutions in 91 countries and territories, with 799 journals publishing the results. The total number of authors contributing to the data set is 14,396. China and the United States have the highest number of published papers, with 721 and 525 papers, respectively. Harvard University and the University of California System exert the most significant influence at the institutional level. Regarding authors, Cheungpasitporn, Wisit, and Thongprayoon Charat of the Mayo Clinic organization were the most prolific researchers, with 23 publications each. It is noteworthy that researcher Breiman I had the highest co-citation frequency. The journal with the most published papers was "Scientific Reports," while "PLoS One" had the highest co-citation frequency. In this field of machine learning applied to renal medicine, the article "A Clinically Applicable Approach to Continuous Prediction of Future Acute Kidney Injury" by Tomasev N et al., published in NATURE in 2019, emerged as the most influential article with the highest co-citation frequency. A keyword and reference co-occurrence analysis reveals that current research trends and frontiers in nephrology are the management of patients with renal disease, prediction and diagnosis of renal disease, imaging of renal disease, and development of personalized treatment plans for patients with renal disease. "Acute kidney injury," "chronic kidney disease," and "kidney tumors" are the most discussed diseases in medical research.
    CONCLUSIONS: The field of renal medicine is witnessing a surge in the application of machine learning. On one hand, this study offers a novel perspective on applying machine learning techniques to kidney-related diseases based on bibliometric analysis. This analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the current status and emerging research areas in the field, as well as future trends and frontiers. Conversely, this study furnishes data on collaboration and exchange between countries, regions, institutions, journals, authors, keywords, and reference co-citations. This information can facilitate the advancement of future research endeavors, which aim to enhance interdisciplinary collaboration, optimize data sharing and quality, and further advance the application of machine learning in the renal field.

    Global research landscape on the genetics of congenital heart disease: A bibliometric and visualized analysis via VOSviewer and CiteSpace.
    Fan Zhang, Lei Qi, Mingxue Zhao, Shuming Han, Haoran Zhang, Guangxin Wang.
      Genetic factors play a significant role in the development of congenital heart disease (CHD). Many studies on the genetics of CHD have been published worldwide; however, no research has assessed and mapped the global research landscape of these studies. This bibliometric and visualized study aimed to delineate research hotspots and trends in the field of CHD genetics. Scientific papers on the genetics of CHD from January 1, 1950, to December 31, 2023, were obtained by searching the Web of Science Core Collection. The bibliometric metadata of each chosen research paper were extracted, analyzed, and visualized using tools such as Microsoft Excel 2021, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace. The final analysis included 5317 papers discussing the genetics of CHD. The countries and journals that published the highest number of papers were the United States (n = 2118), and American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A (n = 332), respectively. In addition to CHD and genetics, keywords such as tetralogy of Fallot, ventricular septal defect, and atrial septal defect appeared most frequently among 8365 keywords. Eight clusters were formed to categorize the keywords. Keywords such as case-control study, whole genome sequencing, and whole exome sequencing in clusters 6, 7, and 8, respectively, had the latest average publication year among all clusters. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first bibliometric analysis of CHD genetics studies. Tetralogy of Fallot, ventricular septal defect, and atrial septal defect are global research topics. The interactions between environmental and genetic factors in the pathogenesis of CHD, genetic etiology of CHD-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension, and molecular genetics of CHD via high-throughput genomic technology are possible areas of future research on the genetics of CHD.

       BACKGROUND:  Robotic metabolic and bariatric surgery (RMBS) has emerged as an innovative approach in the treatment of severe obesity by combining the ergonomic precision of robotic technology and instrumentation with the established benefits of weight loss surgery. This study employs a bibliometric approach to identify local research trends and worldwide patterns in RMBS.
    MATERIALS & METHODS:  The research methodology used "robotic" and "metabolic" or "bariatric surgery" to search Web of Science. Articles that were published prior to December 31st, 2023, were included. The analyses were developed using the Rayyan and Bibliometric, in R Studio.
    RESULTS:  265 articles from 51 different journals were included. Scientific production of RMBS experienced a significant annual growth rate of 21.96% from 2003 to 2023, resulting in an average of 12.6 papers published per year. A high correlation (R2 = 0.94) was found between the year and number of articles. The mean number of citations per document was 13.25. Approximately 90% of the journals were classified as zone 3, according to the Bradford categorization. International collaboration was identified in 10.57% of cases, with the University of California and the University of Illinois being the most common organizations. The countries with the highest number of corresponding authors, in descending order, were the United States of America, China, and Switzerland.
    CONCLUSION:  Scientific production in RMBS has experienced sustained growth since the first original publications in 2003. While it has not yet reached the volume, impact, and international collaboration seen in studies related to non-robotic metabolic and bariatric surgery, RBMS holds potential that remains to be explored.

    Long-term trends of publications in journal of neuro-oncology: a bibliographic study of a core journal in the field of neuro-oncology.
    S Farzad Maroufi, S Parmis Maroufi, Mohammad Sadegh Fallahi, Jason P Sheehan.
       PURPOSE: The Journal of Neuro-Oncology (JNO), established in 1983, plays a key role in publishing research on brain and spinal cord tumors. This study examines JNO's publication trends, focusing on country and gender representation to highlight its global impact.
    METHODS: Statistical analyses were conducted using R. Gender of the first authors was predicted using a gender-guesser, and author affiliations were used to determine publication countries. We introduced a novel Country-Related Diversity (CRD) index to assess the JNO's representativeness, comparing a country's JNO publications to its overall neurosurgical output. An index value of 1 indicates proportional representation.
    RESULTS: The JNO corpus, spanning from 1983 to 2024, comprises 8,154 documents with an average document age of 14.4 years. The average citation count per document is 28.71, with a rate of 2.16 citations per document per year. JNO's scientific output has grown significantly, peaking at 397 articles in 2011, with a long-term annual growth rate of 3.7%. The keyword analysis highlights "glioblastoma" as the most frequent term, reflecting the journal's neuro-oncological focus. Geographically, the U.S. led with 2,535 articles (40.1%), followed by China and Germany. International collaboration rose steadily, with multi-country publications increasing from 4.76% in 1983 to 20.98% in 2024. Analyzing contributions from different countries showed a converging CRD index toward 1 (P < 0.01), with U.S. and non-U.S. countries trending similarly. Upper-middle-income countries displayed fluctuating CRD patterns, whereas lower-middle-income countries lagged behind. Authorship analysis showed an increasing trend in co-authorship (P < 0.01), with the average number of authors per paper reaching 10.4 by 2024. Gender representation revealed a growing number of female first and senior authors, although males still dominate. By 2024, 32.9% of first authors and 21.6% of senior authors were female, signaling a gradual trend toward gender parity (P < 0.01).
    CONCLUSIONS: The CRD index offers a standardized measure of country-specific research representation in the JNO. The convergence towards 1 reflects balanced international representation. JNO publication also reflects a trend toward gender equity, with a notable rise in female first authors, enhancing global research inclusivity.

    Qi Xu, Xiaoyu Feng, Siyuan Qin, Yu Hong, Rui Cui, Jia Liang, Zhuya Xiao, Yuan Li.
       Background: Breast cancer, particularly triple-negative (TNBC), is a leading malignancy with aggressive traits and high metastasis rates. Clinical trial is an important tool for optimizing therapeutic strategies in the evaluation of the safety and efficacy for TNBC. Our bibliometric study of TNBC clinical trials aims to assess therapeutic strategies, identify trends, and explore advancements in treatment. We focus on mapping knowledge development, including key research entities and topics, and analyzing research trends and emerging methods. This analysis intends to inform future research, especially in personalized and precision medicine for TNBC.
    Methods: We selected publications on clinical trials for the treatment of TNBC from 1997 to 2024 in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). After an initial screening, we downloaded key data including titles, publication years, authors, countries, institutional affiliations, journals, keywords, and abstracts, and saved them in BibTex format. We then conducted a bibliometric analysis using Bibliometrix in R and VOSviewer to illustrate the prospects, highlights, and trends of TNBC treatment options. Furthermore, to emphasize the hot topics in TNBC treatment strategies, we performed a bibliometric analysis of immunotherapy using the same approach.
    Results: 1907 publications were included, most of which were from China, Italy, and the United States. The number of annual publications has increased dramatically since 2010. The focus of TNBC clinical trial research has shifted from understanding the biology, such as breast cancer subtyping and genotyping, to novel therapeutic approaches. The major advancement in clinical trials is the switch from late-stage palliative treatment to early preoperative neoadjuvant therapy, as more TNBC cases are discovered at an early stage. Immunotherapy is also highlighted with additional alternatives for advanced or metastasized TNBC, such as targeted inhibitors with unusual mutation rates and antibody drug conjugates (ADC).
    Conclusions: This investigation made it apparent how immunotherapy has recently made major advancements in TNBC treatment plans and how ADCs, or targeted therapies, are currently popular for TNBC. By identifying significant papers, comprehending trending topics, and collaborating across multiple disciplines, this study may accelerate research on TNBC therapy options.

       BACKGROUND: Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome is a malignant infectious disease caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV gradually destroys the body's immune system and weakens the body's ability to resist diseases. People living with HIV may have a higher incidence of coronary heart disease than people without HIV.
    METHOD: A literature retrieval from January 1, 1993 to October 1, 2023 based on the Web of Science Core Collection database. CiteSpace6.2.R4, VOSviewer v1.6.19, and Microsoft Excel 2019 were utilized for analyzing the following terms: countries, institutions, authors, journals, references, and keywords.
    RESULTS: There were 1144 articles. The highest number of articles is in the USA, followed by Italy. University of California System, Harvard University, and Johns Hopkins University were the top 3 most productive institutions with publications in this field of research. Journal of Infectious Diseases ranked first with the highest publications (532 records), followed by Immunology (362 records), and Cardiac Cardiovascular Systems (242 records). Keyword co-occurrence analysis showed antiretroviral therapy, myocardial infarction, and protease inhibitors, etc. Keyword cluster analysis obtained 13 categories, which were roughly divided into 3 themes: (1) cardiovascular disease that has occurred or may occur; (2) HIV acquisitions that have occurred; (3) risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
    CONCLUSION: The article obtained the hotspots and trends and provided references for subsequent research. Based on the keyword citation burst detection analysis, we speculated that heart failure, risk, subclinical atherosclerosis, infection, and association were the research hotspots in recent years, which had a certain predictive effect on the future research direction.

    Research hotspots and emerging trends in growth and development of macrofungi: a bibliometric review based on CiteSpace analysis.
    Xueyan Sun, Dongmei Liu, Xihong Zhao.
      Macrofungi (or mushrooms) are essential for agriculture, food, and ecology. Although research on the growth and development of macrofungi (GDM) can provide insights into their biological characteristics and metabolite synthesis mechanisms, further exploration is needed for a systematic and visual analysis of the current research progress on GDM. To comprehensively understand the research status and development trend of GDM, a total of 545 scientific literature related to GDM in the Web of Science Core Collection database from 2008 to 2024 were searched and selected as research objects. The general information (publication year, country, institution, and cited journal) and the specific information (co-authorship, keyword co-occurrence, and references with strong citation bursts) were mined and visualized in detail based on CiteSpace software. These analyses demonstrated that related research is still fashionable, and China is dominant and influential in this field. More frequent and in-depth cooperation among authors, institutions and regions is conducive to promoting the research on GDM. Additionally, the quantity and cluster analyses of keywords and references demonstrated that medicinal/edible macrofungi and sustainable development (e.g. mushroom substrate reuse) may be research hotspots and will remain popular in the coming years. This research aims to supply researchers with up-to-date knowledge and cutting-edge issues related to GDM by providing a visually appealing representations on quantitative GDM studies.

    Research output from India's Siddha system of medicine during 1972-2019: Bibliometric analysis points need to focus on quantity and quality.
    Sendhilkumar Muthappan, Rajalakshmi Elumalai, Prakash Muthuperumal, Priyanka Manivannan, Satish Sivaprakasam, Manickam Ponnaiah.
       Introduction: The Siddha system of medicine (SSM) is one of the Indian Systems of Medicine (ISM). In recent times, it has received adequate support from the Indian Ministry of Ayush. Like many such indigenous systems of medicine globally, the SSM is based on its own theoretical principles, philosophy, and methods of practice. Nevertheless, SSM conducts and needs basic and applied research using scientific methods. Such research is evidenced by research publications. In the absence of a review, we did a bibliometric analysis of research publications from SSM for the period of 1972-2019.
    Materials and Methods: We used the term "Siddha" to retrieve the data from the PubMed database. We retrieved data from the National AYUSH research portal and homepages of institutions mandated to do research in SSM. We abstracted bibliometric information and used Epi info (Version 7.2) for analysis. We described the trends and key characteristics.
    Results: Of a total of 2009 retrieved articles, we included 1457 (73%) for analysis. Between 1972 and 2001, the median number of publications per year was three (range: 0-13). Beyond 2012, the publications increased exponentially with an annual growth of 23%. The maximum number of publications (n = 224) was in 2019. Among 43 countries that produced the papers, India topped it (88%). Of 1457, 1.7% (n = 25) of publications from Siddha institutions were indexed in PubMed.
    Conclusion: A bibliometric review of research output from SSM suggests that the publications have increased in the last two decades. The review recommends improving research output from SSM in terms of quantity and quality.

      The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a crucial marker of insulin resistance, as evidenced by numerous studies related to metabolic diseases. This bibliometric analysis investigates research trends associated with the TyG index over the past 24 years. We collected data on TyG index publications from January 1, 2000, to January 7, 2024, using the Web of Science database. Analysis was conducted utilizing VOSviewer, Scimago Graphica, and CiteSpace to evaluate publication metrics, citations, countries, institutions, authors, journals, and keywords. A total of 1163 publications from 354 journals authored by 6149 researchers across 60 countries were analyzed. China emerged as the leading contributor, with 654 publications (56.23%). Capital Medical University was the most productive institution, and Wu Shouling was the top author. Cardiovascular Diabetology was identified as the most influential journal. Key emerging research directions include the role of the TyG index as a representative marker for insulin resistance, particularly concerning insulin sensitivity; its association with body mass index and hyperuricemia; and its diagnostic and prognostic value in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and cardiovascular conditions such as acute coronary syndrome, carotid plaque, and hypertension. Current trends favor cohort studies predominantly involving adult populations. Overall, China leads TyG index research, focusing on its connections to insulin sensitivity, body mass index, and hyperuricemia, while the index's diagnostic and prognostic significance for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and cardiovascular diseases represents an expanding research frontier.

    A 20-year analysis of gender trends in oncology authorship in the Cochrane database of systematic reviews.
    Morgan S Levy, Thilani Samarakoon, Caleigh Smith, Irene Goo, Lunthita M Duthely, Maria Van Zuilen, Marilyn Huang, Asha B Pillai.
       Objectives: The objective of this study was to evaluate global longitudinal publication trends in oncology in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (CDSR) from 2001-2020.
    Design: Retrospective bibliometric analysis.
    Primary and secondary outcome measures: The primary outcome measures were the numbers and percentages of women as first, last, and corresponding author across all CDSR oncology publications. Additional outcomes included authorship differences between countries and percentages of women authors over time compared using the Cochran-Armitage trend test.
    Results: In total, 548 articles were analyzed. Women were first authors in 52.26% (n=277) and corresponding authors in 50.75% (n=272), respectively. Women represented only 39.4% (n=210) of last authors, significantly less frequent than male counterparts (p < 0.001). The percentage of women last and corresponding authors has increased significantly in the past 20 years (p < 0.05). Countries such as the Netherlands and Australia consistently showed equitable representation in first, corresponding, and last authorship, while other countries such as Italy and China had uniformly low rates of female authorship.
    Coclusions: Our results highlight patterns of gender inequity in oncology publication authorship in the CDSR from 2001-2020 at a global level. Notably, women were less likely to serve in the last author position which, independent of assigned corresponding authorship, is generally assumed in academic oncology to designate the leader of a published study. Substantive efforts to correct this disparity are needed to achieve gender parity in publicly perceived leadership in oncology publications.

    Jiuhong Zhao, Yihan Lei, Xinyuan Zhang, Zhihong Li.
       BACKGROUND: The interest on short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) regulating the progress of neurological diseases has gained significant attention in recent years. This bibliometric analysis aimed to provide insights into the current state and future trends of global research on SCFAs in neurological research.
    METHODS: To analysis the general trend of publications, the scientific output in this field from 1995 to 2024 was first retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection, Scopus, and PubMed with SCFAs-related and neurological diseases related terms as the subjects. Based on above publication analysis, rapid development stage was marked as 2016 to 2024 and 878 relevant original articles in rapid development stage was retrieved with the time limit from 2016 to 2024. Key bibliometric indicators were calculated and evaluated using CiteSpace with these 878 articles.
    RESULTS: SCFAs are related to the occurrence and development of neurological diseases. China and the USA have contributed in a significant way to foster a better understanding on SCFAs in neurological diseases. The hot theme of research have gradually shifted from neurodegenerative diseases to psychical diseases. In the aspect of mechanism research, the current hotspot is inflammation. SCFAs are able to modulate oxidative stress and microglia maturation, morphology and function to intervene in the development of neurological diseases and thus SCFAs interventions are promising to treat neurological diseases. 2016 to 2024 is the fast-developing stage in this field. In this stage the publications dramatically increased and were of high quality.
    CONCLUSION: SCFAs in neurological research will continue to be an active area in the near future. Future trends might be correlation analysis and neurotherapeutics of SCFAs on patients with psychical diseases and deeper mechanism research is still needed.

    The transition towards a sustainable circular economy through life cycle assessment in the building and construction sector: a review and bibliometric analysis.
    Reyhane Salimi, Roohollah Taherkhani.
      Transitioning to a circular economy is indispensable for the construction industry to achieve sustainable development goals. Understanding trends, gaps, and opportunities in life cycle assessment (LCA) for adopting a circular economy is critical. This study investigates the development of publications, identifies the most effective documents, authors, and countries, and highlights critical issues, knowledge axes, active research areas, and knowledge gaps. The study screened 196 out of 280 articles from the Scopus database and conducted a bibliometric analysis using CiteSpace and VOSviewer. Document clustering analysis identified the main research domains, and thematic classifications of knowledge areas and axes were provided. Additionally, development opportunities and knowledge gaps were identified through a full-text analysis of selected articles. The results show an increase in publications post-2017, with key research clusters including "Critical consideration," "Circular building component," "Building material," "Design for disassembly," "Integrated load match analysis," "Adaptive reuse project," "Data bank," "Prospective life cycle assessment," "Investment decision," and "Environmental comparison." Over 60% of the documents propose circular design solutions, end-of-life strategies, and alternative materials, while more than 80% focus solely on the environmental aspect. Only 4.6% develop integrated indicators, 2.5% automate LCA, 2.1% compile life cycle inventory databases, and 2% consider the social dimension. The findings emphasize the need to develop integrated indicators, methods, life cycle inventory databases, and automation tools based on integrated platforms and emerging technologies like building information modeling. This research identifies current knowledge gaps, suggests future research directions, and enhances understanding of how to make LCA more compatible with the circular economy.

    Academic Neurosurgery Gender and Authorship Trends in the United States.
    Kathryn N Kearns, Kristina P Kurker, Alexandria C Marino, Patricia Zhao, Purushotham Ramanathan, Mark E Shaffrey, John A Jane, Min S Park.
       BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Women represent ∼20% of the national neurosurgical resident cohort but only ∼10% of academic neurosurgeons in the United States. Recognizing that the publication of scientific literature contributes to academic advancement, we measured authorship trends of academic neurosurgeons to query publication differences as an explanation for the discrepancy of female representation in academic positions.
    METHODS: Physician data were obtained from program and individual physician webpages. Annual total, first author, and senior author publications were recorded for each neurosurgeon from 1980 to 2020. Mean publication number as a function of the year relative to residency graduation was calculated for all, first author, and senior author publications for all timepoints with >50 individuals. The mean first years of publication were compared using unpaired 2-tailed t-tests. The slope of publication for the senior author and all publications was calculated using individual best-fit lines from years 0 to 10 relative to residency graduation.
    RESULTS: Overall, 1601 faculty members were evaluated (female = 167 [10.4%], male = 1434 [89.6%]). First-author publication for female members peaked at 0.60 publications/year, and for male members at 0.80 publications/year, both at -1 year from graduation (P = .038). Female first publication occurred earlier (-2.4 vs 1.45 years; P < .00001). The mean increase in all publications/year from years 0 to 10 was 0.25 for women and 0.28 for men (P = .68). The increase in senior publications/year was 0.11 for women and 0.13 for men (P = .39). The ratio of total publications to the Scopus h-index was 3.08 for women and 3.62 for men (P = .07).
    CONCLUSION: These data suggest that women publish earlier but have fewer first-author publications at -1 year, the timepoint of peak publication for both genders. There was no significant gender difference in rates of the first author and all publications over the years 0 to 10. The ratio of publications to the h-index did not differ significantly but showed a trend suggesting that women produce higher-impact articles and may need fewer publications to achieve the same change in the h-index.

    Network Analysis of the North American Skull Base Society Membership.
    John K Luebs, Carl H Snyderman.
      Background  The membership of the North American Skull Base Society (NASBS) has grown considerably in recent years with diversity in subspecialty training, gender, and geography. The academic relationships and contributions of its membership have not been studied. Objectives  This study aimed to (1) measure academic contributions of NASBS membership; (2) identify influential nodes of academic collaboration; (3) identify opportunities for future collaboration and mentorship. Methods  Peer-reviewed publications of members of NASBS (2019 NASBS website) were identified using Scopus author name search. Network structures were constructed and analyzed using the graph-tool python library to produce a weighted coauthorship network and compute centrality measures. Visual network maps were then produced using Gephi network visualization software. Results  The coauthor network contained 952 members with found publications and 4,996 connections. A total of 846 (88.9%) members were contained in a single connected giant component; 102 members were unconnected, and 64 members had a single connection. Girvan-Newman clustering identified 267 communities, where 13 contained at least 1% of the total membership each. The three largest communities contained 23.3, 8.4, and 6.9% of members. There were 111 published members identified as women; 5.4% of women were unconnected versus 11.4% of men. Average publication count for women was 32.3 (standard deviation [SD] 38.5) versus 70.5 (SD 106) for men. Average citation count for women was 543 (SD 1,012) versus 1,389 (SD 2,893) for men. Conclusion  Network mapping of membership of the NASBS helps to visualize the academic activities and relationships of the NASBS and reveals areas of concentration and influence within the specialty.

    Human Capital and Productivity in Surgery Research Across the Globe: A Big Data Analysis Using Artificial Intelligence.
    Georgios Karamitros, Sofoklis Goulas.
       INTRODUCTION: No investigation of each nation's contribution to knowledge production and human capital in surgery currently exists. Previous studies explored country-level research productivity only in few surgical subspecialties. To identify current and future leaders in surgery research, we conduct a retrospective observational study of each country's human capital and research productivity.
    METHODS: A web-scraping algorithm was deployed on PubMed to retrieve information on the first and senior author of every publication in all PubMed-indexed surgery outlets-a total of 388 journals-between 2010 and 2022, according to the SCImago classification. Each country's human capital is proxied by the number of first and senior authors.
    RESULTS: A total of 665,668 publications from 110 countries were reviewed. The number of publications rises over time. The United States represents 30.78% and 31.32% of global publications based on first and senior authors, respectively. Other leading contributors include the United Kingdom (5.57% and 5.69% of global first and senior author publications, respectively), China (8.84% and 8.74%), Japan (7.14% and 7.10%), and Italy (4.54% and 4.46%). The number of publications per 100K people ranges between 0.04 and 86.01, suggesting widely varying levels of research productivity relative to the population.
    CONCLUSIONS: Our findings underscore the US dominance in surgery research. Countries with a higher share of first or senior authors may have greater capacity to expand their future research output. As big data research expands, we expect studies deploying artificial intelligence methodologies, such as web scraping, on data repositories to guide healthcare provision and health policy decisions to become mainstream.

    Translational horizons in stem cell therapy for osteonecrosis of the femoral head: a journey from basic research to clinical practice through bibliometric insights.
    Tingyu Wu, Yinxue Zhou, Weipeng Shi, Sijia Guo, Hua Tian, Weiyan Li, Yingzhen Wang, Tao Li.
       BACKGROUND: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) significantly impacts young and middle-aged adults, with steroid use implicated in many cases. Traditional treatments have limited efficacy, prompting a shift towards innovative approaches, such as stem cell therapy, offering less invasive regenerative solutions.
    METHODS: Using bibliometric analysis from 1997 to 2023, we identified 392 articles on stem cell therapy for ONFH from the Web of Science Core Collection and analysed them using VOSviewer and CiteSpace to identify key trends and research directions.
    RESULTS: From 1997 to 2023, stem cell therapy for ONFH research expanded significantly, with 392 articles evidencing global collaboration, particularly from China, the United States and South Korea. The field is characterised by 158 core authors across 26 clusters and contributions from 417 institutions in 104 research clusters, with Shanghai Jiao Tong University as a notable leader. This research is disseminated through 23 journal clusters, emphasising interdisciplinary work, with Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research among the most influential journals. Key findings include the identification of the most influential papers, highlighting advances, such as use of autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and innovative delivery mechanisms. High-frequency keyword analysis further mapped the evolution of the field, from basic mechanisms to advanced therapies, underscoring a trend towards more targeted stem cell treatments for ONFH.
    CONCLUSION: Stem cell therapy for ONFH has advanced significantly, showcasing a successful transition from basic research to clinical practice, particularly highlighted by developments in use of autologous MSCs and delivery methods. Future research will focus on refining therapies through exosome technology, targeted modulation of stress and inflammation and integration with surgical techniques, with the aim of tailored patient care and improved ONFH outcomes.

    An analysis of the effects of sharing research data, code, and preprints on citations.
    Giovanni Colavizza, Lauren Cadwallader, Marcel LaFlamme, Grégory Dozot, Stéphane Lecorney, Daniel Rappo, Iain Hrynaszkiewicz.
      Calls to make scientific research more open have gained traction with a range of societal stakeholders. Open Science practices include but are not limited to the early sharing of results via preprints and openly sharing outputs such as data and code to make research more reproducible and extensible. Existing evidence shows that adopting Open Science practices has effects in several domains. In this study, we investigate whether adopting one or more Open Science practices leads to significantly higher citations for an associated publication, which is one form of academic impact. We use a novel dataset known as Open Science Indicators, produced by PLOS and DataSeer, which includes all PLOS publications from 2018 to 2023 as well as a comparison group sampled from the PMC Open Access Subset. In total, we analyze circa 122'000 publications. We calculate publication and author-level citation indicators and use a broad set of control variables to isolate the effect of Open Science Indicators on received citations. We show that Open Science practices are adopted to different degrees across scientific disciplines. We find that the early release of a publication as a preprint correlates with a significant positive citation advantage of about 20.2% (±.7) on average. We also find that sharing data in an online repository correlates with a smaller yet still positive citation advantage of 4.3% (±.8) on average. However, we do not find a significant citation advantage for sharing code. Further research is needed on additional or alternative measures of impact beyond citations. Our results are likely to be of interest to researchers, as well as publishers, research funders, and policymakers.

    Research trends in the treatment and recycling of construction and demolition waste based on literature data-driven visualization.
    Luxiang Wang, Zhende Zhu, Xinghua Xie, Junyu Wu.
      In recent decades, research on treatment and recycling of construction and demolition waste (CDW) has rapidly increased due to its substantial environmental, social, and economic impacts. Despite the growing interest in this field, there is a noticeable lack of comprehensive and systematic analysis offering a clear overview of the development context and quantitative trends. To address this gap, this study conducted a systematic bibliometric overview that covers publishing trends, collaborative networks among countries, institutions and research teams, co-citation analysis of literatures, and keyword co-occurrence analysis using literature data-driven visualization. Research trends and future perspectives were identified based on the results and comprehensive review as well as the keywords clusters visualized by literature data. These perspectives highlight several research opportunities. (1) Advanced technologies for CDW treatment are underutilized, which necessitates government involvement and a national disposal charging system. (2) There is a lack of interdisciplinary integration in CDW research. (3) A universally applicable life cycle assessment system for CDW recycling needs to be developed. (4) Research on heavy metal migration and long-term stability in recycled CDW is limited. (5) More studies on CDW reduction in the design stage are warranted, with emphasis on urban planning, building quality, design optimization, and resource estimation. These findings not only enhance understanding of the research trends in treatment and recycling of CDW but also for provide insights for practitioners and researchers at the evolving frontiers of the field.

    Gender Distribution of Editorial Board Members in Palliative Care Journals: Assessment of Gender Parity.
    Özcan Ölbeci, Bişar Ergün, Mehmet Nuri Yakar, Volkan Hanci.
      Objective: Although the representation of women in palliative care has improved in recent years, gender inequality still exists in editorial leadership. This study aimed to characterize gender distribution in leadership positions on the editorial boards of palliative care journals. Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed the gender composition of editorial boards for palliative care journals indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) and the factors that affect this composition. Information on the gender of editorial board members was obtained from each journal's website. Results: A total of 1388 editorial board members from 28 palliative care journals were included in the analysis. The data analysis showed that 540 (38.9%) of the editorial board members were women, while 848 (61.1%) were men. Of the 31 editors-in-chief, only 11 (35.5%) were women. Editorial boards of journals classified as social work (OR, 5.92, 95% CI, 2.29-15.30, p < 0.001) and nursing (OR, 4.20, 95% CI, 1.73-10.17, p = 0.001) in WoS coverage were independently associated with gender diversity. There were differences in gender representation between the editorial boards of palliative care journals published in New Zealand (OR, 0.49, 95% CI, 0.29-0.80, p = 0.005), Japan (OR, 0.17, 95% CI, 0.08-0.32, p < 0.001), and those categorized under oncology in WoS coverage (OR, 0.64, 95% CI, 0.05-0.89, p = 0.009). Conclusions: Our findings demonstrated that women are underrepresented among editorial board members of palliative care journals. Additional efforts are required to broaden diversity policies in palliative care.

    Trends and Hotspots in the Health Economics Evaluation of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
    Hejia Wan, Bingqi Wei, Wenli Qian, Jing Zhang.
       Objective: To explore the research trends and hotspots of health economics evaluations of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome.
    Methods: To explore the research trends and hotspots of health economics evaluations of chronic fatigue syndrome, 180 articles published between 1991 and 2024 were visualized and analyzed via CiteSpace 6.3 software. R3 and VOSviewer1.6.20 and R4.3.3. The content includes annual publication volume, journal distribution, author country, publishing organization, author collaboration, citation analysis, and keyword analysis in 7 aspects.
    Results: Fewer studies have evaluated the health economics of individuals with chronic fatigue syndrome in China and abroad, Chinese studies are especially rare, and research results in the UK are mostly found in other countries. Moreover, cooperation and linkages between institutions, as well as between authors, are not yet strong.
    Conclusion: The hotspot of health economics evaluation methods in this field is cost-effectiveness analysis, and the hotspot of diagnosis and treatment methods is cognitive‒behavioral therapy. We also found that chronic fatigue syndrome may also have a strong potential association with depression from the perspective of health economics. Health economic evaluations of multiple treatments should be conducted simultaneously to increase attention to this field and provide a reference basis for low-cost and high-quality diagnostic and treatment programs.

    Global Research Trends and Recent Advances in Medicinal Plant-Synthesized Nanoparticles for Cancer Treatment.
    Tomi Lois Adetunji, Chijioke Olisah, Marvellous Amarachi Acho, Funsho Oyetunde-Joshua, Stephen O Amoo.
      Worldwide, cancer ranks among the foremost contributors to mortality despite recent medical progress. Alternative approaches in controlling various forms of cancer are being highly explored by researchers. This study provides the global research trends in the utilization of medicinal plant-synthesized nanoparticles for cancer treatment over the span of 18 years using scientometric analysis. Recent research advances on medicinal plant-derived nanoparticles for cancer treatment and their possible mechanisms of action were described. Relevant articles published between 2005 and 2023 were retrieved from Scopus and Web of Science and analyzed using RStudio and VOSViewer. Scientometric indicators were employed to analyze the results. The initial search returned 5695 articles, with a publication growth rate of 3.71% annually. Countries from Asia contributed the most (61.37%) to the total number of publications. The therapeutic effects of nanoparticles derived from medicinal plants can be attributed to various mechanistic pathways, including induced apoptosis from reactive oxygen species generation, as well as mitochondrial and cell membrane disruption, amongst others. Although some reported studies demonstrated promising safety and efficacy against certain cancer cells in vivo and in vitro, the little to no clinical data on medicinal plant-synthesized nanoparticles hinder the ability to make informed decisions about their clinical potential in cancer treatment.

    Navigating the Landscape of Periodontitis Nonsurgical Treatment: A Metatrend Study of The Scientific Production and Trends From 2001-2020.
    Victoria L Abdo, Caroline Dini, Maria Helena R Borges, Danilo V A P Domingues, Kamily A C C Sanchez, Rodrigo Martins, Belen Retamal-Valdes, Valentim A R Barão, Joāo Gabriel S Souza.
      Nonsurgical therapies have been recommended and employed as a less invasive and cost-effective modality in managing periodontitis. In this context, different therapeutic protocols have been tested in the last decades. Therefore, mapping the scientific trends and patterns provides critical insights into the state of research in the field, which has not been explored for overall nonsurgical periodontitis treatment studies. Articles from 2001 to 2020 were retrieved from the Web of Science database using appropriate terms and keywords. Article selection and data extraction were performed by calibrated examiners. All articles focusing on nonsurgical periodontitis treatment were included. Descriptive, bivariate, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted. 1,519 articles were included. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) were the most used design (44.1%), and professional biofilm control was the topic most studied (35.6%). Europe published the most significant number of articles (41.1%). The USA was the country that collaborated more with other countries. Asia (p<0.001), South America (p=0.004), and Oceania/Africa (p=0.016) showed a lower chance to have international collaboration. Studies from North America were more likely to be RCTs than studies from Europe (p=0.050); studies focusing on professional biofilm control (p<0.001) and other topics (p<0.001) were less likely to be evaluated by RCTs. The nonsurgical periodontitis treatment field mainly conducted RCTs, and the topic most explored by all studies was professional biofilm control. International collaboration and conduct of RCTs in this field occurred mainly among high-income countries. Decentralizing scientific resources, making integrative connections globally, and evaluating new topics may improve evidence-based periodontology.

      The skin plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis and protecting against external aggressors. Recent research has highlighted the potential of probiotics and postbiotics in dermatological treatments and skincare. These beneficial microorganisms interact with the skin microbiota, modulate the immune response, and enhance the skin barrier, offering a promising therapeutic avenue for various skin conditions, such as acne, dermatitis, eczema, and psoriasis. This bibliometric study aims to analyze the global trends and scientific impact of topical probiotics in dermatology. By reviewing 106 articles published between 2013 and 2023, the study categorizes the applications of probiotics in wound healing, inflammatory skin diseases, and general skincare. The findings indicate a significant increase in publications from 2021 onwards, attributed to the heightened focus on medical research during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study also identifies the most productive countries, institutions, and authors in this field, highlighting the importance of international collaborations. The results underscore the efficacy of probiotic-based topical formulations in improving skin health, reducing inflammation, and enhancing wound healing. This comprehensive analysis supports the development of new therapeutic strategies based on topical probiotics and encourages high-quality research in this promising area.

    Tritan Plute, Othman Bin-Alamer, Arka N Mallela, Georgios A Zenonos, Eric W Wang, Paul A Gardner, William T Couldwell, Carl H Snyderman, Hussam Abou-Al-Shaar.
      Objectives  Our objective was to elucidate the demographic, academic, and career attributes of North American Skull Base Society (NASBS) presidents and determine how leadership of this society has changed over time. Design  Thirty-one NASBS presidents have served between 1990 and 2021. Demographic and scholarly variables were recorded from publicly available sources. To determine how trends in NASBS presidents have changed over time, linear and logistic regressions were conducted on continuous and categorical variables, respectively. Setting  Virtual setting was used for this study. Participants  There were no active participants in the study. Main Outcome Measures  Academic metrics of NASBS presidents were the main outcome measure. Results  NASBS presidents had a mean age of 53.3 ± 6.1 years at election and were all male. The most common institution at which former presidents trained ( n  = 4) and practiced ( n  = 3) was the University of Pittsburgh. Otolaryngologists comprised 41.9% ( n  = 13) of the cohort, neurosurgeons made up 38.8% ( n  = 12), and the remaining 19.3% ( n  = 6) were from other specialties. NASBS presidents from neurosurgery ( p  = 0.033) and other specialties ( p  = 0.014) were more likely to hold the rank of chair compared with those from otolaryngology. Over time, there has been a linear increase in years of research experience at the time of election ( p  = 0.048). There remains a lack of diversity of gender and race. Conclusion  NASBS presidents have demonstrated increased research activity over time, favoring long-term academic careers. Knowledge of these trends and attributes, which demonstrate an increase in skull base literature, growth of the NASBS, and a need for increased diversity in the field, is important for stewarding the future of the NASBS and promoting equity.

    Bridging the gap: enhancing orthopaedic outcomes through qualitative research integration.
    Louise E Mew, Vanessa Heaslip, Tikki Immins, Arul Ramasamy, Thomas W Wainwright.
       Aims: The evidence base within trauma and orthopaedics has traditionally favoured quantitative research methodologies. Qualitative research can provide unique insights which illuminate patient experiences and perceptions of care. Qualitative methods reveal the subjective narratives of patients that are not captured by quantitative data, providing a more comprehensive understanding of patient-centred care. The aim of this study is to quantify the level of qualitative research within the orthopaedic literature.
    Methods: A bibliometric search of journals' online archives and multiple databases was undertaken in March 2024, to identify articles using qualitative research methods in the top 12 trauma and orthopaedic journals based on the 2023 impact factor and SCImago rating. The bibliometric search was conducted and reported in accordance with the preliminary guideline for reporting bibliometric reviews of the biomedical literature (BIBLIO).
    Results: Of the 7,201 papers reviewed, 136 included qualitative methods (0.1%). There was no significant difference between the journals, apart from Bone & Joint Open, which included 21 studies using qualitative methods, equalling 4% of its published articles.
    Conclusion: This study demonstrates that there is a very low number of qualitative research papers published within trauma and orthopaedic journals. Given the increasing focus on patient outcomes and improving the patient experience, it may be argued that there is a requirement to support both quantitative and qualitative approaches to orthopaedic research. Combining qualitative and quantitative methods may effectively address the complex and personal aspects of patients' care, ensuring that outcomes align with patient values and enhance overall care quality.

    CiteSpace-based visual analysis on transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation of clinical randomized controlled trial studies and its mechanism on perioperative disorders.
    Mengqi Li, Xiaobo Jiang, Xiangmu Gai, Mengyao Dai, Mengyuan Li, Yanxin Wang, Hongfeng Wang.
      To systematically present an overview of randomized controlled trials on transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) using bibliometric methods, and describe the role and mechanisms of TEAS in most prevalent diseases. Relevant literature was searched in China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, and Web of Science. The literature was imported and screened into NoteExpress, screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and analyzed using Excel and CiteSpace 6.3R1 software. A total of 1296 documents were included. The number of publications increased annually after 2012. Junlu Wang was the most prolific author. The main research institutions were Peking University, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University, Shuguang Hospital, and Tongde Hospital of Zhejiang Province. The research hotspots in this field include perioperative care, cancer, pain management, and stroke, primarily focusing on analgesia, immune enhancement, antihypertension, and reduction of gastrointestinal disorders. The main regulatory mechanisms of TEAS include the control of inflammation, oxidative stress, and regulation of the autonomic nervous system. TEAS is most widely used in the elderly, with PC6, ST36, and LI4 being the most frequently studied acupoints in clinical randomized controlled trials. The concept of accelerated rehabilitation is gradually being applied to TEAS, representing an emerging trend for future development. Clinical research on TEAS is rapidly developing, with a focus on applications in cancer and perioperative care. Future research should expand collaboration and conduct high-level clinical and mechanistic studies, which will contribute to the development of standardized protocols and clinical practice.

    Network Analysis of Past Presidents of the North American Skull Base Society.
    John K Luebs, Carl H Snyderman.
      Background  Little is known about the relative contributions and interactions of the past presidents of the North American Skull Base Society (NASBS) and skull base centers. Objectives  (1) Measure academic contributions of past presidents; (2) identify influential nodes of academic collaboration; (3) identify opportunities for future collaboration. Methods  Peer-reviewed publications of past presidents of NASBS from 1964 to July 2019 were identified using Scopus author name search. Network structures were constructed and analyzed using the graph-tool python library to produce a weighted co-authorship network base and compute centrality measures. Girvan-Newman clustering was applied to identify community structure. Network maps were then produced using Gephi network visualization software with force-directed layout algorithms. Results  The coauthor network of 29 presidents was fully connected, with a maximum shortest-path distance between presidents of 5. The mean number of connections from each node without respect to weighting was 5.31 (standard deviation [SD]: 3.53), and the mean number of connections with weighting was 8.40 (SD: 7.28). The number of unweighted connections ranged from 1 to 14 and weighted connections ranged from 0.25 to 24.7. Girvan-Newman clustering identified three communities with two that covered 93% of the network. The largest communities contained 14 and 13 presidents. The number of connections was correlated with h-index, both unweighted ( r 2  = 0.34) and weighted ( r 2  = 0.26). Conclusion  Network mapping of past presidents of the NASBS helps to capture the history of the NASBS and reveals areas of concentration and influence within the specialty.

    Global occurrence and environmental behavior of novel brominated flame retardants in soils: Current knowledge and future perspectives.
    Rui Wang, Hongguang Cheng, Zhaoyong Bian.
      Since polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are on the list of regulated chemicals, novel brominated flame retardants (NBFRs) have been produced as alternatives and extensively used since the end of the 19th century. A comprehensive assessment of the environmental burden of NBFRs, which are emerging contaminants with bio-toxic and carcinogenic properties, is urgently needed. Given that soil is a major sink for organic pollutants, this study systematically reviewed global data on NBFRs in soil for the period of 1990-2024 via a bibliometric analysis of 70 publications from the Web of Science Core Collection, reaching the following achievements. (1) NBFRs in soils have been reported in 17 countries or regions worldwide, ranging from not detected to 8.46 × 104 ng/g dw, showing an increasing trend over time, with severe contamination in Asia and Australia. (2) NBFR concentrations varied significantly across land use types: manufacturing land > electronic waste disposal areas > urban soil > farmland > forest > remote areas. (3) NBFRs with log KOA > 10 tend to settle from the air into the soil, where they may be absorbed by plant roots and bioaccumulate in the food chain. (4) Organism dietary habits and metabolism, along with the hydrophobicity and molecular weight of NBFRs, contribute to bioaccumulation differences. (5) Successive reductive debromination is the primary degradation pathway for NBFRs, and microorganisms such as the white-rot fungus P. ostreatus show potential for remediating NBFR-contaminated soil. This review clarifies the pollution status of soil NBFRs and provides a solid reference to develop management policies. Future research should focus on studying the transport mechanisms of NBFRs between soil and other media, and assessing the cumulative effects of high trophic level organisms on NBFRs.

    Stroke is Not an Accident: An Integrative Review on the Use of the Term 'Cerebrovascular Accident'.
    Catherine Burns, Ailie Sanders, Lauren M Sanders, Lachlan L Dalli, Valery Feigin, Dominique A Cadilhac, Geoffrey Donnan, Bo Norrving, Muideen T Olaiya, Balakrishnan Nair, Nathan Henry, Monique F Kilkenny.
       BACKGROUND: Cerebrovascular accident (CVA) is an outdated term for describing stroke as it implies stroke is an accident. We conducted an integrative review to determine use of CVA in terms of 1) frequency in major medical journals over time; 2) associated publication characteristics (e.g., number of authors, senior author country, topic); and 3) frequency in medical records.
    METHODS: We searched Google Scholar for publications in leading neurology and vascular journals (Quartile 1) across two 5-year periods (1998-2002 and 2018-2022) using the terms "cerebrovascular accident" or "CVA." Two reviewers independently reviewed full-text publications and recorded the frequency of CVA use. Rates of use (per 1,000 articles/year) were calculated for each journal and time period. Associations of publication characteristics with CVA use were determined using multivariable logistic regression models. In addition, admission and discharge forms in the Auckland Regional Community Stroke Study (ARCOS V) were audited for frequency of use of the term CVA.
    RESULTS: Of the 1,643 publications retrieved, 1,539 were reviewed in full. Of these, CVA was used ≥1 time in 676 publications, and ≥2 times in 276 publications (129 in 1998-2002; 147 in 2018-2022). The terms CVA and stroke both appeared in 57% of publications where CVA was used ≥2 times in 1998-2002, compared to 65% in 2018-2022. Majority of publications were on the topic of stroke (22% in 1998-2002; 20% in 2018-2022). There were no associations between publication characteristics and the use of CVA. The highest rate of CVA use in 2018-2022 was in Circulation, and increased over time from 1.3 uses per 1,000 publications in 1998-2002 to 1.8 uses per 1,000 publications in 2018-2022. The largest reduction the use of CVA was in Neuroepidemiology (2.0 uses per 1,000 publications in 1998-2002 to 0 uses in 2018-2022). The term CVA was identified in 0.2% of stroke admission and discharge forms audited (17/7808).
    CONCLUSION: We found evidence of changes in the use of CVA in the scientific literature over the past two decades. Editors, authors and clinicians should avoid the use of the term CVA as it perpetuates the use of a non-specific, non-diagnostic, and non-scientific term.

    Frequency of limitations statements in original research articles of United States leading medical journals: A meta-research protocol.
    Nin-Chieh Hsu, Hung-Bin Tsai, Chia-Hao Hsu, Ming-Yan Tsai, Charles Liao, Yasuharu Tokuda.
       BACKGROUND: Limitation declarations are commonly deemed essential to uphold intellectual humility for scientific research, but little has been reported about the limitation statements in published original research articles. This meta-research study aims to investigate the trends of limitation statements among three leading general medical journals in the US.
    METHODS: This cross-sectional study will compile a data set of full-length original research articles published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Journal of the American Medical Association, and Annals of Internal Medicine between 2002 and 2022. Limitation statement will be recognized by two investigators, and a predefined set of sensitive keywords is used for sensitivity analysis. Frequency of limitation statements within the main text of research articles and trends for different study designs, including their association with the corresponding reporting guidelines, are the main measurements. We employ the Cochran-Armitage test for trend analysis.
    CONCLUSION: The findings of this study will provide an overview of the limitation statements in leading general medical journals in the US. The results may contribute to future research to identify factors that are associated with the presence of limitation statements.
