Global research trends and emerging frontiers in young-onset stroke: a bibliometric analysis (1996-2026).
Review in Frontiers in neurology, 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
Objective: Young-onset stroke (YOS) has increasing public health relevance. This study mapped global research trends, hotspots, and emerging frontiers in YOS from 1996 to 2026. Methods: English articles and reviews from 1996 to 2026 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection, yielding 5,249 records after screening. PubMed was analyzed for external validation, with 2,929 eligible records. bibliometrix, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace were used to analyze publication output, collaboration networks, keywords, bursts, and co-citations. A strict title-field subset evaluated search-strategy sensitivity. Results: Publication output increased markedly after 2018. The United States and China were the leading contributors. Major topics included ischemic stroke, risk factors, cardiovascular comorbidity, etiologic evaluation, acute treatment, rehabilitation, and survivorship. Recent bursts indicated growing attention to disease burden, mechanical thrombectomy, medical therapy, stroke survivors, quality of life, fatigue, unmet needs, and machine learning. PubMed validation and strict title-field sensitivity analysis supported the main temporal and thematic patterns. Conclusion: YOS research has expanded into a multidimensional field. Future work should prioritize harmonized definitions, multinational data resources, age-specific etiologic and treatment studies, long-term cognitive and psychosocial outcomes, and rehabilitation.
