Bibliometric evaluation of publications on inflammasomes in atherosclerosis from 2002 to 2022.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Inflammasomes have emerged as an important and promising area of investigation in atherosclerosis. This field, however, lacks bibliometric studies. To help understand how basic and clinical research on inflammasomes in atherosclerosis will develop in the future, we used bibliometric analysis to visualize hotspots and trends. Methods: Studies related to inflammasomes in atherosclerosis were collected from the Web of Science Core Collection database. Each study was analyzed bibliometrically and visually. CiteSpace and VOSviewer software were used to generate knowledge maps. Results: A total of 894 articles were identified. Sixty-two countries and 338 institutions led by China and the United States contributed to these publications. The leading research institutions were Harvard Medical School and Columbia University. Conclusion: There has been a blooming of research on inflammasomes in atherosclerosis during the last two decades. Future studies will likely explore the molecular mechanism of inflammasomes in cell death. More compellingly, researchers may further delve into the potential clinical value of affecting pathological changes in atherosclerosis by modulating the initial transcription immune response and intracellular multiprotein assembly process of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Our research will be helpful to scholars focusing on inflammation-a much-needed breakthrough in the pathophysiological alterations of atherosclerosis-with a novel perspective.
