  • Bibliometrics and visualization analysis of esophageal cancer surgery-related researches

    Objective To investigate the current status of esophageal cancer surgery-related researches using bibliometric methodologies and identify the trend and hotspots. Methods The Chinese and English literature was collected from Web of Science and CNKI from inception of each database to April 1, 2022. VOSviewer 1.6.18 and CiteSpace 6.1 were applied to cluster the authors, institutions, and keywords. For social network and time series analysis, Excel, GraphPad, and R 4.0.3 were used to visualize the literature on esophageal cancer surgery. Results Finally, 19 566 English literature and 19 872 Chinese literature was included. The results demonstrated that the annual publishing of both Chinese and English literature increased over time, with English literature increasing rapidly and Chinese literature maintaining an average number of above 1 000 per year from 2011 to 2019. Researches were predominantly centered in Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea, and China. China's researches in the field of surgical treatment in esophageal cancer lacked international collaboration, which began later than East Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea and had less influence. From the keyword perspective, previous researches on surgical treatment of esophageal cancer mostly focused on surgical techniques, complications, and comprehensive perioperative therapy. Both Chinese and English literature showed that the prevalence of keywords such as minimally invasive surgery, comprehensive treatment, and clinical trials increased dramatically during the recent years, indicating that these fields may represent the future directions and research trends. Conclusion Compared to East Asia countries, such as Japan and South Korea, Chinese esophageal cancer surgery-related researches are relatively lacking. The research direction and field are similar to those in developed countries such as the United States and Europe. Future attention may be focused on minimally invasive treatment, comprehensive treatment, and clinical trials associated with surgical treatment of esophageal cancer.
