Remote ischemic conditioning: A bibliometric analysis.
Article in Brain circulation. 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
backgroundRemote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has gained significant attention across various professional fields as a safe and effective neuroregulatory technique. To gain a comprehensive understanding of the current status, emerging trends, and potential future directions in this field, a swift and intuitive statistical analysis method is essential for summarizing the available information.
methodsThis review conducted a literature search using the Web of Science Core Collection database and utilized VOSviewer software for visualization and analysis of publication trends, countries of origin, and keywords spanning the years 1985 to 2023.
resultsFrom 1998 to 2023, a total of 1,524 reviews on RIC were published, demonstrating a consistent increase in publications over the years. China emerged as the leading contributor in terms of publication, but the average number of citations was not dominant. Current RIC research hotspots encompass mechanism studies, stroke, neuroprotection, and cardiac protection. Among these, stroke, neuroprotection, and mechanisms play a major role in future.
conclusionsThere is a consistent upward trajectory in RIC research publications. While China led in terms of publication quantity, the recognition of articles still needs to be improved. Stroke, neuroprotection, and mechanism research are poised to be the primary research focal points in the present and future of RIC studies.
