Global bibliometric analysis of comorbid depression and anxiety in inflammatory bowel disease (2010-2024).
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundInflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an intestinal inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. Depression and anxiety are prevalent mental symptoms associated with IBD. Although numerous studies have explored the potential relationship between IBD and these psychological conditions, a bibliometric analysis on this topic has yet to be conducted.
methodsWe screened 420 relevant articles from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database from 2010 to 2024 and analyzed them using software such as CiteSpace, VOSviewer, Pajek, and Tableau.
resultsThe USA (98 papers), the University of Manitoba (24 papers), Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (56 papers), and Charles N. Bernstein (20 papers) were the most productive country, institution, journal, and author, respectively. High-frequency keywords in this field include "quality-of-life," "symptoms," "prevalence," "comorbidity," "association," "therapy," and "management." Additionally, emerging research frontiers encompass topics such as "mouse model," "remission," "disorder," and "gut microbiota."
conclusionsOver the past 14 years, there has been a notable increase in research focused on depression and anxiety associated with inflammatory bowel disease. Key areas such as "mouse models," "remission," "disorder," and "gut microbiota" are poised to become focal points of future investigations. These findings may offer new avenues for researchers to explore.
