Insights
This bibliometric analysis reveals key trends in the 100 most cited coronary heart disease (CHD) articles. Clinical trials and risk factors dominated research, with leading publications from the USA and UK.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Bibliometrics
- Medical Research Trends
Background:
- Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a significant global health concern.
- Existing data on CHD research circumstances and trends are insufficient.
- Bibliometric analysis is employed to address this knowledge gap.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the circumstances and trends of the most cited articles in coronary heart disease (CHD).
- To provide insights into the evolution of CHD research through bibliometric analysis.
Main Methods:
- Bibliometric analysis of the 100 most cited articles on CHD.
- Data collected from the Web of Science database.
- Analysis included article type, study content, publication journals, and contributing countries.
Main Results:
- Clinical trials constituted the largest article type.
- Risk factors were the most frequently studied content.
- The New England Journal of Medicine, Lancet, Circulation, and JAMA published the most cited articles.
- The USA and UK were the leading contributing countries.
Conclusions:
- The study offers a comprehensive analysis of highly influential CHD research.
- Findings highlight key areas and trends in CHD prevention and treatment research.
- This analysis provides valuable insights for future research directions in CHD.
Background:
Research on coronary heart disease (CHD) remains one of the major concerns in the medical and health fields in recent decades, yet data on the circumstances of CHD are unsatisfying. We aimed to evaluate the situations and trends of the most cited articles in CHD via bibliometric approaches.
Methods And Results:
The Web of Science database was used to identify the 100 most cited articles concerning CHD. General and bibliometric information was collected and analyzed. The total citations ranged from 7829 to 1157. Clinical trial was the largest proportion in article type while risk factor was the most preferred study content. The New England Journal of Medicine published the most T100 articles (n=31), followed by Lancet (n=21), Circulation (n=19) and JAMA (n=12). The USA and UK were the leading countries in the field of CHD, and contributed enormously in combating CHD.
Conclusions:
This study presented a detailed analysis of the 100 most cited articles focused on CHD in recent decades, which provides insights into the circumstances and trends in preventing and treating CHD.
