Bibliometric and visualized analysis of elite controllers based on CiteSpace: landscapes, hotspots, and frontiers.
Article in Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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: A unique subset of people living with HIV, known as elite controllers, possess spontaneous and consistent control over viral replication and disease progression in the absence of antiviral intervention. In-depth research on elite controllers is conducive to designing better treatment strategies for HIV. However, comprehensive and illuminating bibliometric reports on elite controllers are rare. Methods: Articles on elite controllers were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. A visualized analysis of this domain was conducted by CiteSpace software. Taking count, betweenness centrality, and burst value as criteria, we interpreted the visualization results and predicted future new directions and emerging trends. Results: By December 31, 2022, 843 articles related to elite controllers had been published. The largest contributors in terms of country, institution, and author were the United States (485), Univ Calif San Francisco (87), and Walker B.D. (65), respectively. Migueles S.A. (325) and Conclusion: This study performed a bibliometric and visual analysis of elite controllers, identified the main characteristics and emerging trends, and provided insightful references for further development of this rapidly evolving and complex field.
