Mapping knowledge domains of bibiiometrics regarding percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphopiasty based on vosviewer / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphopiasty are widely used minimally invasive surgery for vertebral compression fractures, spinal primary tumor and spinal metastasis. However, there were no bibliometric studies and mapping knowledge domains study regarding percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphopiasty. OBJECTIVE: To summarize and identify the papers related to percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphopiasty, and mapping knowledge domains of percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphopiasty. METHODS: Web of Science was retrieved for studies published from 1985 to 2018. The key words were TS = vertebroplasty OR kyphopiasty. All data were input into the Microsoft Excel 2016 and VOSviewer to identify publication number, publication year, publication country, publication organization, publication source, author, sum of times cited (including and excluding self-citation), average cited times and H-index. VOSviewer software was used to analyze the co-cited references, the co-cited authors and the co-occurrence of key words, and mapping knowledge domains. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The research regarding percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphopiasty is one of the important research areas in spine surgery research domains. (2) USA dominates the research regarding percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphopiasty. The qualities of papers from Switzerland and England are relatively high while those from China and Italy are relatively low. (3) Some of the organizations that published most papers and high-quality papers include Mayo Clinic, Suzhou University, Johns Hopkins University, Cleveland Clinic Foundation and University of Bern. (4) Some of the journals that published most papers and high-quality papers include SPINE, EUROPEAN SPINE JOURNAL, AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY, JOURNAL OF VASCULAR AND INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY. (5) Some of the authors that published most papers and high-quality papers include YANG HL, KALLMES DF, PFLUGMACHER R, DERAMOND H, CHIRAS J, FERGUSON SJ and MASALA S. (6) The key contents of percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphopiasty include osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture, tumor, bone cement, surgery, biomechanics and refracture.
