Research hotspots and trends in diabetes and insulin resistance: a bibliometric analysis.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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: Many previous studies explored the relationship between diabetes and insulin resistance (IR); however, addressing the research gap where no bibliometric analysis had been conducted to summarize and analyze these publications, we will undertake a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to investigate the current status and emerging trends in publications examining the association between diabetes and IR. Methods: We retrieved publications related to the interaction between diabetes and IR from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). By utilizing software such as CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and Excel 2019, we analyzed and extracted relevant information from the literature to identify and delineate the research hotspots and directions in the study of diabetes and IR. Results: From 1900 to 2024, a total of 2,698 publications were included in the bibliometric analysis, showing a steady annual increase in the number of publications. The USA led in this research field, with the Harvard University being a key research institution. The author Olefsky JM, published the most papers;Defronzo RA was the most cited author. DIABETES was the journal with the highest number of published papers and was also the most cited journal. The main discipline in the field of diabetes and IR research was Endocrinology and Metabolism. The most cited article was "Mechanisms linking obesity to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (2006)";"The IDF Diabetes Atlas: Global estimates of diabetes prevalence for 2017 and projections for 2045(2018)" was the most cited reference. "insulin resistance" was the most frequently occurring keyword. The main research hotspots and frontier areas in diabetes and IR research were as follows: (1) The association between IR, diabetes, and obesity was a popular research topic; (2) Cardiovascular diseases secondary to diabetes and IR were another hot topic among researchers; (3) As a core pathological change in diabetes, IR was a major therapeutic target for improving diabetes. Conclusion: This study summarized the research trends and hotspots in the field of diabetes and IR, provided valuable information and insights for scholars who focused on diabetes and IR scientific research, and offered a reference for future research directions.
