Abstract
Background: More studies explored the prevalence, causes, associated conditions, and therapeutic strategies of narcolepsy. With an increasing focus on understanding narcolepsy's prevalence, associated conditions, and therapeutic strategies, there's a notable absence of bibliometric analyses summarizing trends in research and identifying emerging areas of focus within this field.
Aim: To conduct a bibliometric analysis to investigate the current status and frontiers of narcolepsy.
Methods: The documents related to narcolepsy are obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection database (WoSCC) from January 1, 2000, to December 31, 2023, and VOS viewer 1.6.16, and the WoSCC's literature analysis wire were used to conduct the bibliometric analysis.
Results: A total of 4672 publications related to narcolepsy were included, and 16182 authors across 4397 institutions and 96 countries/regions contributed to these documents in 1131 different journals. The most productive author, institution, country and journal were Yves Dauvilliers, Stanford University, United States, and Sleep Medicine, respectively. The first high-cited document was published in Nature in 2005 by Saper et al, and this research underscores the role of certain neurons in ensuring the stability of sleep-wake transitions, offering insights into narcolepsy's pathophysiology.
Conclusion: In conclusion, the main research hotspots and frontiers in the field of narcolepsy are the diagnosis of narcolepsy, pathological mechanism of narcolepsy and the treatment of narcolepsy. More studies are needed to explore effective strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of narcolepsy.
期刊介绍:
The World Journal of Psychiatry (WJP) is a high-quality, peer reviewed, open-access journal. The primary task of WJP is to rapidly publish high-quality original articles, reviews, editorials, and case reports in the field of psychiatry. In order to promote productive academic communication, the peer review process for the WJP is transparent; to this end, all published manuscripts are accompanied by the anonymized reviewers’ comments as well as the authors’ responses. The primary aims of the WJP are to improve diagnostic, therapeutic and preventive modalities and the skills of clinicians and to guide clinical practice in psychiatry.
