Bibliometric analysis of research trends on hyperbaric oxygen therapy in stroke from 2000 to 2022.
Synthesis in Frontiers in neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07626450 (HyperBaric Oxygen Therapy After ACute Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic strOke Due to Large Vessel occlusioN), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.

Abstract
Background: Stroke primarily results from the interruption of cerebral blood flow. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), a noninvasive and promising therapeutic intervention, has been widely used to treat various ischemic and hypoxic conditions. Over the past two decades, extensive research has demonstrated HBOT's efficacy in reducing cerebral infarct volume, establishing it as a viable neuroprotective strategy. Given these findings, this study employs bibliometric analysis to explore emerging trends and key research foci in HBOT applications for stroke management. Method: We performed a systematic literature search on hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) and stroke using the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database, specifically the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-Expanded). The search was restricted to English-language articles and reviews published between January 2000 and December 2022. Data retrieval, screening, and analysis were conducted in June 2023. Results: A total of 323 publications were identified, demonstrating annual fluctuations in research output. The United States dominated HBOT-related stroke research in both publication volume and scientific impact. Shai Efrati emerged as the most prolific author in this field, while the Sackler Faculty of Medicine at Tel Aviv University was the most influential institution. The journal Stroke published the highest number of HBOT-related stroke studies. Co-citation analysis revealed "cognitive function" as the primary research focus in HBOT applications for stroke. Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis investigated the current research landscape, trends, and emerging priorities in hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) applications for stroke. The primary research focus centered on HBOT's therapeutic potential for cognitive function enhancement and chronic-phase post-stroke treatment.
