Research trends and frontiers on risk factors of urinary stones: a bibliometric analysis from 2010 to 2023.

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 AND
objectiveThe occurrence of urinary stone disease (USD) is associated with several factors. However, no conclusive results have been reached regarding the treatment of USD risk factors. This study conducted a detailed bibliometric analysis of USD risk factors to determine research hotspots and provide future development directions.
methodsArticles and reviews on the USD risk factors published between 2010 and 2023 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. Co-occurrence and collaboration analyses of countries, institutions, authors, journals, references, and keywords were conducted using CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and R-Bibliometrix.
resultsA total of 436 articles on USD risk factors were included in the study. China and the United States have emerged as the leading countries in this field, with the Mayo Clinic having the highest amount of publication output. Among all the authors, Ferraro PM had the highest number of publications, while Taylor EN was the highly cited author. The journal with the highest number of publications was
conclusionThis study employed bibliometric methods to conduct a comprehensive visual analysis of USD risk factors to show publication trends and popular topics in this area over the past decade. The results provide a valuable reference for future research on the risk factors of USD.
