Abstract

BackgroundAcanthosis nigricans (AN) is a common skin disease characterized by clear pigmented patches on the folds of the skin. However, the AN research field lacks scientific and comprehensive bibliometric analysis. This article aims to use bibliometric methods to summarize and visualize the distribution patterns, research hotspots, and development trends of AN literature.MethodsLiterature from 1900 to 2024 was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database through AN's thematic search. Using CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and Excel 2019, conduct a comprehensive analysis of the number of publications, countries/regions, institutions, authors, journals, highly cited literature, keywords, and so on, and sort out the hotspots and directions of AN.ResultsFrom 1900 to 2024, 1675 publications were included in the bibliometric analysis, showing a steady annual increase in the number of publications. The United States leads in this research field, with the University of Texas System being a key research institution. The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism has the highest number of published papers. The most cited article is “Syndromes of Insulin Resistance and Acanthosis Nigricans: Insulin‐Receptor Disorders in Man” (1976). The author Taylor, SI, has published the most papers. “Acanthosis nigricans” is the most frequently occurring keyword. The main research hotspots and frontier areas in AN research are as follows: (1) The relationship between AN and other diseases is a popular research topic; (2) The connection between AN and insulin resistance (IR) is a current research focus; (3) Treatment of AN, with an emphasis on addressing the underlying causes and improving local skin conditions, represents the cutting edge of this field.ConclusionThis study summarizes the research trends and hotspots in the field of AN, offering valuable information and insights for scholars focused on AN scientific research, and providing a reference for future research directions.

黑棘皮病研究的全球热点和趋势：文献计量和可视化分析

背景黑棘皮病（AN）是一种常见的皮肤病，其特征是皮肤褶皱处出现透明色素斑块。然而，黑棘皮病研究领域缺乏科学、全面的文献计量分析。本文旨在利用文献计量学方法，对AN文献的分布规律、研究热点和发展趋势进行总结和可视化分析。方法通过AN专题检索，从Web of Science Core Collection数据库中检索到1900年至2024年的文献。利用CiteSpace、VOSviewer和Excel 2019，对论文数量、国家/地区、机构、作者、期刊、高被引文献、关键词等进行综合分析，梳理出AN的热点和方向。结果从1900年到2024年，共有1675篇论文被纳入文献计量分析，呈现出论文数量逐年稳步增长的态势。美国在这一研究领域处于领先地位，得克萨斯大学系统是其主要研究机构。临床内分泌与代谢杂志》发表的论文数量最多。被引用最多的文章是《胰岛素抵抗和黑棘皮症综合征》：人的胰岛素受体紊乱"（1976 年）。作者泰勒（Taylor）发表的论文最多。"黑棘皮病 "是出现频率最高的关键词。AN 研究的主要研究热点和前沿领域如下：(1) AN与其他疾病的关系是热门研究课题；(2) AN与胰岛素抵抗（IR）之间的联系是当前的研究重点；(3) AN的治疗以解决根本原因和改善局部皮肤状况为重点，代表了该领域的前沿研究方向。结论本研究总结了AN领域的研究趋势和热点，为关注AN科学研究的学者提供了有价值的信息和见解，为未来的研究方向提供了参考。

期刊介绍： Skin Research and Technology is a clinically-oriented journal on biophysical methods and imaging techniques and how they are used in dermatology, cosmetology and plastic surgery for noninvasive quantification of skin structure and functions. Papers are invited on the development and validation of methods and their application in the characterization of diseased, abnormal and normal skin. Topics include blood flow, colorimetry, thermography, evaporimetry, epidermal humidity, desquamation, profilometry, skin mechanics, epiluminiscence microscopy, high-frequency ultrasonography, confocal microscopy, digital imaging, image analysis and computerized evaluation and magnetic resonance. Noninvasive biochemical methods (such as lipids, keratin and tissue water) and the instrumental evaluation of cytological and histological samples are also covered. The journal has a wide scope and aims to link scientists, clinical researchers and technicians through original articles, communications, editorials and commentaries, letters, reviews, announcements and news. Contributions should be clear, experimentally sound and novel.
