Insights Into the Research Landscape of Biomedical Physics: A Bibliometric Inquiry.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Biomedical physics is the interdisciplinary field that links the scientific concepts in physics to the practice of medicine and biology, in an effort to understand biological processes, help in the development of medical technologies, to improve human health. This bibliometric study investigates the interdisciplinary field of biomedical physics, which integrates the principles of physics with biological and medical sciences to develop innovative diagnostic and therapeutic technologies. Utilizing the Web of Science database for bibliographic data collection, the analysis employs advanced bibliometric software tools, including Biblioshiny and VOSviewer, to comprehensively map the research landscape. Our findings delineate the annual scientific production, highlighting growth trends and identifying the most influential authors and key publication venues in the field. A thematic analysis reveals prevailing research topics and the evolution of scientific interests over time, providing insights into the shifting focus areas within biomedical physics. The factorial analysis goes further to clarify the conceptual structure of the discipline by providing a topological image of how the different research areas are involved. It helps to recognize topical fields and the possibility of the topicalization of other subjects. Keyword co-occurrence assumes the leading themes and measures the value of the topology. Meanwhile, bibliographical information defines the authors' network, and co-citation analysis identifies the critical authors' pool. The last points to the topic dependence and the network of research collaboration on a global scale. As a result, a survey identifies the deficits and rules of recommendations for the further development of research. It adds practical implications that are necessary for the development and identifies influences for popularization that it might have in the future.
