Visualization analysis of the current situation of tiered health care system of type 2 diabetes in China based on CiteSpace / 公共卫生与预防医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the research hotspot and development trend of tiered health care system of type 2 diabetes in China. Methods The relevant research in the field of the tiered health care system of type 2 diabetes in China was sorted out and summarized by using CNKI, WangFang, VIP and Web of Science databases as search objects, and the relevant literature collected between January 1, 2009, and September 28, 2022, was searched. CiteSpace was used to describe the number of articles published, high-frequency keywords, emerging words, and trends. Results A total of 147 valid papers were included. The overall volume of related articles published showed an upward trend. After visual analysis, nine clusters were obtained, including family doctors, tiered health care system, health service system, and primary care. In the past two years, the research trends were mainly focused on primary care, general practitioners, specialist nurses, and quality of survival. Conclusion Research hotspots are focused on the areas of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, primary care, family doctors, and community health services, with the words “medical association” and “specialist nurse” emerging in the past two years. In the future, research should be devoted to improving the tiered health care system of type 2 diabetes and opening up a multi-level cooperative research model, so as to effectively bring into play the advantages and effects of the tiered health care system.
