1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPrimary malignant bone tumors, as diseases that mostly occur in adolescence, seriously affect all aspects of the lives of patients and their families. Effective bone tumor nursing is essential to maintain or improve patients' quality of life. Consequently, investigating bone tumor nursing is of utmost importance. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date synthesis of all published bone tumor nursing research articles and predict future areas of research and emerging trends.

methodsA bibliometric analysis was conducted using the Web of Science Core Collection to identify and analyze nursing research publications on primary malignant bone tumors from January 1, 2004, to September 12, 2025. The analysis and visualization were performed using various scientometric tools. Key characteristics of the publications, including country of origin, institutions, authors, journals, keywords, and references, were thoroughly examined.

resultsA total of 686 studies were included in the analysis, with 5376 authors, 70 countries, and 1422 institutions publishing research focused on nurse-related studies in primary malignant bone tumors. The United States and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center led the lists of publications. The most prolific cited and co-cited authors were Oeffinger, Kevin C, and Bacci, G, respectively. Pediatric Blood & Cancer published the most articles, whereas Journal of Clinical Oncology was the most frequently cited journal. The analysis of keyword co-occurrence and literature co-citation identified several emerging hotspots and trends in the field of primary malignant bone tumor nursing, including prognostic evaluation, clinical intervention, and subtype-targeted nursing care.

conclusionIn recent years, the advancement in nurse-related research in primary malignant bone tumors has accelerated rapidly. A comprehensive bibliometric analysis was utilized to verify the prominent areas of investigation and anticipate future research directions, with the aim of providing valuable insights and recommendations for future studies.
