1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundThe incidence of tinnitus has been increasing together with its patient impact and societal costs. Much research has been conducted in the field of tinnitus, especially on treatment modalities because there still is no cure. This study aims to analyze the evolutions and developments in the scientific output relating to tinnitus.

methodsWe analyzed the Science Citation Index Expanded featured articles in the Web of Science Core Collection relating to tinnitus from 1980 to 2020. The publications were analyzed by characteristics such as the countries and institutions, journals, the most cited articles and references, and the most frequently used words in the abstracts and keywords.

resultsIn total, 8282 articles relating to tinnitus were identified in the Web of Science. The number of publications has been significantly increasing after the 1990s. Of the 8282 articles, a major part originated from the American and European institutions. Most articles originated from high-impact journals, which consequently also covered the most cited papers. A major interest was seen in areas about treatment and pathogenic mechanisms.

conclusionThis bibliometric analysis here indicated an increasing trend in tinnitus research from 1980 to 2020, particularly with the increase in tinnitus burden and the societal costs by it. Specific interest has been seen in the specific tinnitus pathophysiological mechanisms and treatment. Individual researchers and institutions will gain a new perspective on their future studies based on the bibliometric data in our paper.
