Bibliometric analysis of inflammatory bowel disease and emotional factors: trends, impact, and emerging research areas.
Review in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 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: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), encompassing Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is a chronic gastrointestinal condition influenced by genetic, environmental, and immunological factors. Emerging evidence underscores the significant role of emotional factors in the onset, progression, and management of IBD. This bidirectional relationship necessitates a multidisciplinary approach that integrates psychological care into IBD management strategies. This study employs bibliometric analysis to provide a comprehensive overview of the research landscape on IBD and emotional factors. Methods: We used the Web of Science Core Collection to search for pertinent publications. To conduct the analyses, we utilized tools like VOS Viewer, CiteSpace, and Biblioshiny. Results: Research in this field has shown exponential growth, with annual publications increasing from fewer than five in the 1980s to 193 in 2023. The United States leads in research output (521 publications) and collaboration centrality (0.72), followed by England and Canada. The University of Manitoba is the top contributing institution, and Charles N. Bernstein emerged as the most prolific author. Journals like Conclusion: The field of IBD and emotional factors is experiencing rapid growth, driven by increasing recognition of the psychological dimensions of IBD management. While significant progress has been made, gaps remain in understanding the underlying mechanisms and developing integrative therapeutic approaches. Future research should focus on longitudinal studies, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the incorporation of emotional health into personalized treatment strategies.
