COVID-19 and chronic kidney disease: a bibliometric analysis.
Review in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused over 656 million confirmed cases and over 6.6 million deaths worldwide. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is considered a high-risk factor for COVID-19; therefore, considerable research has been conducted in this field. Therefore, this study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of publications related to COVID-19 and CKD. Methods: Publications were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database on 16 January 2023 and screened based on inclusion criteria. Then the authors used Microsoft Excel and CiteSpace to analyze the included publications from the following seven aspects: countries/regions, institutions, journals, authors, cited references, and keywords. Results: In total, 622 publications were included in the study. The USA has the most publications in this field, followed by China. The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Harvard Medical School had the highest number of publications in the field. Journal of Clinical Medicine had the largest number of publications, and Lancet was the most cited journal. Alberto Ortiz was the author with the largest number of publications, but there were no influential authors in this field. The highly cited references are mainly clinical studies on COVID-19. Research hotspots in this field include end-stage recent disease, cardiovascular disease, kidney metastasis, diabetes Mellitus, acute kidney injury, meta-analysis, and consistent plasma. Conclusions: The USA, China, and some European countries and their institutions are major contributors to these publications. End-stage renal disease, acute kidney injury, kidney transplantation and convalescent plasma are current hot topics in the field.
