Research hotspots and trends of post-stroke depression rehabilitation: a bibliometric analysis from 2003 to 2024.

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: Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a common complication of stroke and is associated with stroke prognosis. Rehabilitation plays an essential role in the comprehensive treatment of PSD. However, there are few bibliometric analyses of studies on PSD rehabilitation. This study aimed to comprehensively sort out the network of PSD rehabilitation through bibliometric analyses, analyze the research trends, focus on the hotspots related to PSD rehabilitation, and provide new research perspectives and guidance for future studies. Methods: The Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database was searched for studies about depression rehabilitation after a stroke. The search covered the period from January 1, 2003, to October 31, 2024. We analyzed countries, institutions, journals, authors and keywords using CiteSpace and VOSviewer software to create visualizations and perform a bibliometric analysis. Results: A total of 2,227 papers were analyzed, with an increasing trend in the number of papers published each year. The United States had the highest number of published articles (458 publications), and Maastricht University and Utrecht University were the most published institutions (56 articles). Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is the journal with the most cited publications (5,913 citations). Johanna M. A. is the most prolific author (24 publications). Conclusion: Using bibliometric methods, relevant studies on PSD rehabilitation were reviewed. The hotspots of future research on PSD rehabilitation will center on the brain plasticity mechanism of PSD rehabilitation, PSD assessment, and new techniques of PSD rehabilitation. This article provides systematic information to support and guide future research in this area.
