Advances and global trends of precancerous lesions of gastric cancer: A bibliometric analysis.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 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
backgroundPrecancerous lesions of gastric cancer (PLGC) represent a critical pathological stage in the development of intestinal gastric cancer. Early detection and diagnosis are key to reducing the incidence of gastric cancer. Substantial advancements have been made in PLGC research in recent years, making it necessary to provide updated reviews using bibliometric methods. We hypothesize that this review will identify emerging trends, key research areas, and gaps in PLGC research, providing insights that could guide future studies and enhance prevention strategies.
aimTo comprehensively review the current state of research on PLGC, examining development trends and research hotspots.
methodsWe conducted a bibliometric analysis of PLGC-related studies published between 2004 and 2023 using the Web of Science Core Collection database. We employed Software, including VOSviewer, CiteSpace, R software, and SCImago Graphica, to map scientific networks and visualize knowledge trends in terms of publication volume, countries/regions, institutions, journals, authors, and keywords.
resultsA total of 4097 articles were included, and overall publication volume showed an increasing trend. Over the past two decades, China published the most articles, followed by the United States, Japan, South Korea, and Italy. Among the top 10 contributors, the United States ranked highest in institutions, authors, and citations and demonstrated the strongest international collaboration. Research keywords in this field were clustered into three main categories: Risk factors, pathogenesis, and diagnosis and treatment. Pathogenesis and molecular biomarkers remain key areas of focus. Future research should explore the mechanisms of gut microbiota, immune microenvironment, metabolic reprogramming, and epigenetics. Advanced technologies, including single-cell sequencing, spatially resolved analysis, multi-omics approaches, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, will likely accelerate in-depth investigations of PLGC.
conclusionPLGC research has rapidly developed in recent years, gaining considerable attention. This bibliometric analysis reveals research state and emerging trends over the past 20 years, providing insights for future studies.
