A Bibliometric Analysis of the Top 100 Most-Cited Articles on Skin Photoaging.
Article in Journal of cosmetic dermatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundIn recent decades, our understanding of the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of skin photoaging has improved considerably, thereby enhancing preventive and management strategies. The bibliometric analysis demonstrates the chronological trends of publications, highlighting the most influential studies related to skin photoaging.
objectiveThis study aims to identify and analyze the top 100 most-cited articles related to skin photoaging to offer bibliometric information.
methodsThe Web of Science database was searched to obtain publications on skin photoaging. Information from the top 100 most-cited articles was extracted and analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2019 and VOSviewer (version 1.6.18).
resultsThe top 100 most-cited articles on skin photoaging received a total of 23 925 citations and an average of 239 citations per article. The top most-cited article received 1019 citations and 30.88 citations per article. The publication year ranged from 1995 to 2010, with a peak period of top publications between 2001 and 2005. The Journal of Investigative Dermatology and the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology published the largest number of top-cited articles. The articles originated from nine different countries, with The United States as the highest contributor. Fisher GJ was the most productive first author from the University of Michigan in the United States and published a total of three articles. A total of 62 keywords were included and grouped into three clusters: 'matrix metalloproteinase', 'collagen' and 'radiation'. The article types include only reviews and original articles. Prevention and treatment-related studies were the most common research focus, followed by pathogenesis, pathophysiology, clinical features and screening methods.
conclusionThis bibliometric analysis on skin photoaging demonstrated a major upward trend in the prevention and treatment of skin photoaging, which provides a foundation for future research.
