Comprehensive Bibliometric Assessment of the Top 50 Cited Articles on Osteogenesis Imperfecta.
Article in Orthopedic reviews, 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: Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic bone disorder that has attracted increasing scientific attention. Bibliometric analysis offers insights into the intellectual structure and evolution of this field. This study aimed to identify and evaluate the most highly cited articles on OI to highlight influential contributors, leading journals, and major research trends. Methods: A bibliometric search was conducted in the Web of Science Core Collection using the terms "Osteogenesis Imperfecta" and "Brittle Bone Disease." The search was restricted to English- language original and review articles published between 2000 and 2024. The 50 most cited articles were selected and analyzed based on citation metrics, journal impact factors, author contributions, institutional affiliations, and collaboration patterns. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 25.0. Results: The United States produced the highest number of publications, followed by the United Kingdom and Germany. The most cited article, published by Rauch et al. (2004), received 950 citations. The Journal of Bone and Mineral Research and The American Journal of Human Genetics were the most prolific journals in this domain. Observational studies and genetic investigations dominated the top-cited works. Collaboration networks revealed strong interconnections among North American and European institutions, while keyword analysis highlighted growing research interest in gene therapy, molecular diagnostics, and precision medicine. Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis identified the most influential contributions in OI research, underscoring the role of key authors, journals, and international collaborations. It also revealed major trends in genetic and clinical studies while highlighting emerging areas such as gene therapy and precision medicine as promising directions for future research.
