Research trends of facial nerve injury after cerebellopontine angle tumor: CiteSpace-based bibliometric analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: A bibliometric analysis was conducted to understand the current research status and trends in facial nerve injury after cerebellopontine angle (CPA) tumors to identify new perspectives for future research. Methods: CiteSpace was used to visualize and analyze relevant literature included in the CNKI and WanFang databases, and the Web of Science Core Collection from 2015 to 2024. Chinese literature was deduplicated using NoteExpress. Results: A total of 7,021 studies was retrieved, showing a pattern of rapid increase in this research area over the past 10 years. Protection and management of the facial nerve in surgery and early recognition of facial nerve injury were the research hotspots and trends. Conclusion: This study emphasizes the importance of intraoperative protection and management of the facial nerve. Limited research has addressed the postoperative facial nerve injury from the perspective of functional rehabilitation and patient psychology. These areas need more attention and focused research.
