Trends in global research on tobacco use among sexual and gender minorities: A bibliometric analysis, 1984-2024.

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
introductionGlobally, sexual and gender minorities (SGM) exhibit significantly higher tobacco use rates than their cisgender heterosexual counterparts, a persistent health disparity that has garnered increasing attention in public health research.
methodsWe conducted a bibliometric analysis of 704 SGM tobacco use-related publications from the Web of Science Core Collection. First, we examined publication trends, key contributors, and collaborative networks. Second, we performed co-citation network analysis to identify disciplinary characteristics and research hotspots. Finally, we applied keyword burst detection and clustering techniques to assess emerging trends and frontier areas.
resultsFrom 1984 to 2024, research on SGM tobacco use demonstrated consistent growth. The US accounted for the majority of publications (82.52%), with institutions such as the University of California System serving as key hubs for research collaboration. Research hotspots clustered around five key themes: 1) the effects of novel tobacco products, 2) subgroup differences in tobacco use, 3) tobacco-related health disparities, 4) smoking cessation research, and 5) social and psychological mechanisms.
conclusionsUsing data mining and visualization techniques, this study constructed a comprehensive knowledge map of research on SGM tobacco use. Our findings elucidate evolving patterns and emerging trends while offering valuable perspectives to guide future investigations.
