ABSTRACT
To investigate the research status and trends of application of objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) in medical education in China and globally, and to provide a reference for clinical teaching and medical education research. CNKI and Web of Science Core Collection were searched to identify journal articles related to OSCE published up to the present day. CtieSpace V software was used to visually analyze the research institutions, authors, highly cited literature, and keyword changes of the articles based on scientific knowledge maps. The overall number of publications on OSCE published in China and globally showed an increasing trend, but foreign publications were significantly more than Chinese publications. The institutions and authors were widely distributed. Comprehensive universities were the main institutions in foreign publications, with relatively little cooperation between each other. Domestic research primarily focused on medical education in the early stage, SP training and standardization in the middle stage, and clinical competence for resident physicians, nurses, and other clinical professionals in the late stage. Early foreign research focused mainly on medical education and clinical competence, while later research focused primarily on communication with patients and ability assessment. It is expected that future domestic research will focus on building clinical competence evaluation systems based on the OSCE model, while future foreign research will focus on patient communication and humanistic care assessment.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the situation of nephrology nursing research in more than a decade, and to provide reference for the development of nursing scientific research in China.@*Methods@#A total of 1 927 papers of nephrology nursing, which ranged from January 1, 2008 to November 8, 2018, were retrieved from the Web of Science core collection database and visualized by CiteSpace V and ECharts.js.@*Results@#The cited frequency of international nephrology nursing research increased year by year, and the number of papers growed tendency in fluctuation. The United States and Australia were in the leading position on nephrology nursing research, and China ranked sixth. Research hotspots focused mainly on the keywords such as chronic kidney disease, hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, quality of life, and disease management. Co-occurrence cluster analysis revealed that peritoneal dialysis and home hemodialysis were the frontiers.@*Conclusions@#International nephrology nursing research has developed steadily. Chinese specialists should track the research trends of international core institutions in real time, explore research hotspots and frontiers, and strive for prompting nursing research to be in line with the international.
ABSTRACT
Results and Conclusion The number of rehabilitation nursing studies both at home and abroad increased. USA published the most literatures (893) in the world, and China ranked the seventh (117). The most leading research institute was University of Toronto (Canada) in the world, and West China Hospital (Sichuan) in China. China and other countries all focused on stroke and quality of life, but less focused on long-term outcomes of rehabilitation in China. The research fronts in the foreigns extended from hospitals to communities and nursing homes, and the subjects of service extended from inpatients to the adults and old adults. The key word emerged in 2016 was cardiovascular disease, indicating a new developing hot topics. Objective:To analyze the domestic and foreign research hot topics and research fronts of rehabilitation nursing in recent ten years. Methods:The literatures about rehabilitation nursing were retrieved from the databases of Web of Science and CNKI, from 2009 to 2018. The visualization maps were drawn with CiteSpace V software to analyse time, country, institution, research hotspots and fronts.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the developments and frontiers of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) research in order to make possible breakthroughs in subsequent studies.Methods Information visualization software Citespace V was applied to draw the mapping knowledge domain based on the database of SLE literature in Science Citation Index Expanded of Web of Science from 1975 to 2016.In this way,it was possible to analyze the basis of knowledge,network relationships between countries or regions,hot spots and courses frontier evolution in the recent 40 years.Results Totally 39 847 articles of literature were collected.The USA,UK,Spain,Italy and Australia were known as the leading countries in the study of SLE.The relationships between SLE and other autoimmune diseases,autoantibody detection and significance,anticardiolipin antibody expression,gene expression,classification criteria,disease activity were hot spots of SLE.Depression of SLE patients,management of SLE and differentiation of SLE were eye-catching research frontiers in recent years.Conclusion The mapping knowledge domain can display the main hot spots in research of SLE,show the frontier spheres and evolution course of related branches of learning,reveal the potential information in complex giant data networks,and guide future studies.
