Trends and hotspots of publications on ferroptosis: A 10 Year overview.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: Ferroptosis was proposed to be a type of programmed cell death in 2012. Ferroptosis plays a significant role in a variety of illnesses. Objective: To better understand the direction of future research, we performed a bibliometric analysis to identify research hotspots with a focus on ferroptosis. Methods: The search terms [TI = "ferroptosis" OR ("GSH" AND "GPX4") OR "lipid peroxidation" OR "iron homeostasis" OR "iron metabolism"] AND [PY = "2012-2022"] AND [DT = "Article OR Review"] AND [LA = "English"] were used to retrieve publications related to ferroptosis for a bibliometric analysis. We utilized Microsoft Excel to calculate the frequency and proportion of the published articles, VOSviewer to perform a co-occurrence analysis and for visualizing the data, CiteSpace to obtain a timeline of keywords and institutions, and RStudio to calculate citation metrics. As indicated by the analysis, indicators such as the number of publications, the most productive authors and coauthorship status, the distribution of publications by country, favoured journals, the most influential institutions and the most frequently cited documents are reported in this article. Results: A total of 8009 publications were retrieved from the WOS core collection, and 197 papers published in 2023 were removed from this analysis. The remaining 7812 papers, which included 118 in the WOS collection, were incorporated into the bibliometric study. Conclusion: The number of annual scientific publications on ferroptosis have been increasing each year. The academic communities represented by Tang, Daolin, Stockwell, Brent R., Wang, Fudi, and Conrad, Marcus were the most authoritative. China, USA, and Germany were the front-runners in the field of ferroptosis.
