Bibliometric analysis of pancreatic diseases and gut microbiota research from 2002 to 2022.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. 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: An increasing number of studies have indicated that pancreatic diseases are associated with the structure of the gut microbiota. We aimed to assess the research hotspots and trends in this field through a quantitative method. Materials and methods: Articles related to pancreatic diseases and the gut microbiota published from 2002 to 2022 were retrieved from the Web of Science database. We visualized the countries/regions, institutions, authors, journals, and keywords using VOSviewer and CiteSpace software. The interplay between pancreatic diseases and the gut microbiota was also analysed. Results: A total of 129 publications were finally identified. The number of papers increased gradually, and China held the dominant position with respect to publication output. Shanghai Jiao Tong University was the most influential institution. Zeng Yue ranked highest in the number of papers, and Scientific Reports was the most productive journal. The keywords "gut", "bacterial translocation", and "acute pancreatitis" appeared early for the first time, and "gut microbiota", "community", and "diversity" have been increasingly focused on. The predominant pancreatic disease correlated with the gut microbiota was pancreatic inflammatory disease (50.39%). Pancreatic diseases are associated with alterations in the gut microbiota, characterized by a decrease in beneficial bacteria and an increase in harmful bacteria. Conclusion: This is the first comprehensive bibliometric analysis of all pancreatic diseases and the gut microbiota. The research on the relationship between them is still in the preliminary stage, and the trend is toward a gradual deepening of the research and precise treatment development. The interaction between the gut microbiota and pancreatic diseases will be of increasing concern in the future.
