Research Trends and Hotspots of Acupuncture Therapy on Allergic Diseases From 2004 to 2024: A Bibliometric Analysis.
Review in Journal of multidisciplinary healthcare, 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
Background: Over the past two decades, acupuncture has increasingly been applied in the treatment of allergic diseases, with a corresponding increase in the number of published articles. Objective: To investigate the hotspots and frontiers of global scientific output in acupuncture research for allergic diseases over the past two decades. Methods: The Web of Science Core Collection was used to collect literature on acupuncture therapy for allergic diseases, which spanned from 2004 to 2024. We used CiteSpace 6.3.1 and VOSviewer to conduct visual analysis of the relevant contents of the literature, and constructed a network graph in the software by using information such as the publication date of the article, country, institution, author, and journal. Results: A total of 423 documents were retrieved. The results indicate that the annual publication volume on acupuncture treatment for allergic diseases has shown a fluctuating upward trend. China is the leading country in terms of publications. KyungHee University emerges as the most productive institution. Brinkhaus, B. is the most prolific author. Conclusion: This study provides a comprehensive summary of the research hotspots and trends in the field of acupuncture treatment for allergic diseases over the past two decades, which can assist researchers in better understanding the development of this field and offer directions for future research.
