Abstract

Introduction

Bibliometric and visualization analyses are used to quantitatively assess and graphically display the current status, patterns, and trends using scholarly literature. Pharmacy education worldwide has developed rapidly over the past few decades, but few related studies have been conducted in this field. This study aims to explore the present landscape, identify research focal points, and future trends in the evolution of pharmacy education.

Methods

Published articles on pharmacy education from 2003 to 2022 were sourced and retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC). Utilizing VOSviewer (1.6.18) and CiteSpace (6.2.R2) software, along with a platform (bibliometric.com), we performed comprehensive bibliometric and visualization analyses.

Results

From 2003 to 2022, research on pharmacy education developed rapidly, showing rising trends in annual publications and citations. A total of 2945 publications were collected for this study. The United States of America had the most significant number of publications. As shown in the co-authorship analysis, cooperation between countries is often led and embodied by collaborations between well-known institutions. “Online learning” is one of the latest research directions.

Conclusions

There is a continuously increasing tendency of studies in pharmacy education. The progression of pharmacy education research has transitioned from the theoretical phase to practical application in bedside clinical practice.

全球药学教育研究进展

导言文献计量学和可视化分析用于利用学术文献对现状、模式和趋势进行定量评估和图表展示。过去几十年来，全球药学教育发展迅速，但在这一领域开展的相关研究却寥寥无几。本研究旨在探索药学教育发展的现状、确定研究重点和未来趋势。方法从科学网核心藏书（WOSCC）中查找并检索 2003 年至 2022 年发表的有关药学教育的文章。利用 VOSviewer（1.6.18）和 CiteSpace（6.2.R2）软件以及一个平台（bibliometric.com），我们进行了全面的文献计量学和可视化分析。结果从 2003 年到 2022 年，有关药学教育的研究发展迅速，每年的论文发表量和引用量都呈上升趋势。本研究共收集了 2945 篇论文。美国的论文数量最多。从合著分析中可以看出，国家间的合作往往是由知名机构间的合作主导和体现的。"在线学习 "是最新的研究方向之一。药学教育研究已从理论阶段过渡到床边临床实践应用阶段。
