Bibliometric analysis of limb replantation and transplantation: global research trends and hotspots (2001-2025).
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2026. 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
This bibliometric study analyzed the fields of limb replantation and transplantation to characterize international research trends over the past 25 years. Data were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection, and 780 articles published between January 2001 and July 2025 were evaluated. Bibliometric tools, including VOSviewer, bibliometrix, and CiteSpace, were used to examine publication outputs, journals, authors, institutions, countries, references, keywords, and thematic maps, as well as to construct co-authorship, co-occurrence, and co-citation networks. The annual number of publications demonstrated a fluctuating but upward trend, peaking in 2020.
