Vaginal bacteria and cervical cancer: a bibliometric analysis of trends and themes.
Synthesis in Frontiers in microbiology, 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: Cervical cancer remains a significant global health challenge, with increasing evidence suggesting the crucial role of vaginal bacteria in its development and progression. This study aims to analyze the global research landscape and trends in vaginal bacteria and cervical cancer research through bibliometric analysis. Methods: Literature data were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) database. Bibliometric analysis was performed using VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and R-bibliometrix to evaluate publication patterns, research collaboration networks, and emerging trends. Results: A total of 372 publications were identified, showing an annual growth rate of 8.41%. China and USA emerged as leading contributors, with the Imperial College London and University of Arizona being the most productive institutions. Herbst-Kralovetz MM and Laniewski P were identified as the most influential authors, while Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis provides comprehensive insights into the evolution and current status of vaginal bacteria research in cervical cancer, highlighting key research themes and collaborative patterns. These findings offer valuable guidance for future research directions and potential clinical applications in cervical cancer prevention and treatment strategies.
