A Bibliometric Analysis of Naturopathy Treatment Modalities for Diabetes Mellitus.
Review in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 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
Diabetes mellitus (DM) continues to pose a significant global health challenge, leading to increased interest in naturopathy as a complementary therapeutic approach. This bibliometric analysis examines global research output on naturopathy in the context of DM to identify trends, collaborations, and knowledge gaps. A total of 73 publications from 1983 to 2024 were retrieved from the Web of Science database and analyzed for year-wise distribution, geographic and institutional contributions, subject areas, and publishers. The analysis revealed a notable rise in publications in 2021, with China emerging as the leading contributor, followed by South Korea and the United States. Prominent research themes included acupuncture, diabetes, and insulin resistance. Leading publishers in this field were Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Elsevier, and Springer Nature. Despite the global rise in research, India's participation remains limited. The study highlights the need for more evidence-based investigations to support the integration of naturopathy into mainstream diabetes management.
