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

backgroundIn recent years, liquid biopsy has shown great potential for improving cancer diagnosis and treatment. This study aimed to explore the trends and prospects in liquid biopsy for cancer from a bibliometric perspective.

methodsReviews and articles on liquid biopsy and cancer were collected from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). Key bibliometric characteristics were analyzed using CiteSpace. Co-occurrence analysis of keywords and co-citation analysis of references was performed.

resultsA total of 6331 publications from 11 years of scientific research were retrieved. Ninety-five countries and 7004 institutions in liquid biopsy and cancer contributed. The United States (US) and China published the most articles. The institution with the most published articles was the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. The most published journals were Cancer and Frontiers in Oncology. "Bettegowda (2014)" was the most cited reference with the highest burst strength in the last decade. Cluster analysis revealed that the recent hot topics were "circulating tumor cells," "cancer," and "exosomes."

conclusionsThis bibliometric analysis maps the basic knowledge structure of the field of liquid biopsy for cancer. The field is entering a phase of rapid development. The hot spots identified in this study deserve further investigation.
