ABSTRACT

Objective:Analyzed the funding data of the National Natural Science Foundation of China in the field of preventive medicine from 2009 to 2019 in Nanjing Medical University, to provide scientific basis for scientific research management and decision-making.Methods:Descriptive statistics was used to reveal the status of application and funding in the field of preventive medicine, the distribution and development trends of each secondary code, the research hotspots and key themes in this field.Results:From 2009 to 2019, Nanjing Medical University submitted 566 applications in total and 230 projects were funded with a total funding of 144.03 million in the field of preventive medicine. The top five codes in the funded projects were H2610, H2607, H2603, H2611 and H2601.The funding of H2610 was mainly concentrated in four major areas including cancer, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes and hematological system diseases.H2607 funded a large amount of projects for Non-coding RNA and related pathways in recent years. Funding in the H2603 were mainly focused on tumors, glucose metabolism disorders and vitamin A requirements. The funding rate in the H2605 was 9.26%, which was significantly lower than other secondary disciplines in preventive medicine.Conclusions:The National Natural Science Foundation of Preventive Medicine in the Nanjing Medical University has a good development trend, but it also faced challenges. In the future, evidence-based scientific management will be adopted to promote the development of preventive medicine according to the characteristics of different secondary disciplines.
