Abstract
Background: Lipodystrophy presents clinical management challenges due to its varied expression and low incidence. Despite the clinical importance, there has been no systematic evaluation of the research output in terms of geographical distribution, institutional contributions, or emerging trends. This study aims to fill that gap by conducting a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the global research landscape on lipodystrophy.
Methods: Utilizing the Web of Science core collection, studies from 2010 to 2024 were analyzed. Bibliometric indicators were processed using VOSviewer to identify trends through graphical co-occurrence mapping.
Results: A total of 826 studies from 57 countries were included. The USA led with 259 publications (30.51%). The most productive institutions were the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases with 43 publications (14.98%). Among 166 journals, the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism had the highest publications (43, 25.90%) and citations per publication (58). The most co-cited article was The Diagnosis and Management of Lipodystrophy Syndromes (2016), which was referenced 290 times.
Conclusion: This analysis highlights research trends and collaborative networks, areas for future investigation, and identifies the gaps and emerging trends that will inform future research directions.
No level assigned: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each submission to which Evidence-Based Medicine rankings are applicable. This excludes Review Articles, Book Reviews, and manuscripts that concern Basic Science, Animal Studies, Cadaver Studies, and Experimental Studies.

背景：脂肪营养不良症表现多样，发病率低，给临床管理带来挑战。尽管具有临床重要性，但在地理分布、机构贡献或新兴趋势方面尚无对研究成果的系统评估。本研究旨在通过对脂肪营养不良的全球研究格局进行全面的文献计量分析来填补这一空白。方法：利用Web of Science核心馆藏，对2010 - 2024年的研究进行分析。使用VOSviewer对文献计量指标进行处理，通过图形共现图识别趋势。结果：共纳入来自57个国家的826项研究。美国以259篇（30.51%）领先。生产力最高的机构是国家糖尿病、消化和肾脏疾病研究所，发表了43篇论文（14.98%）。166种期刊中，以Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism发表次数最多（43篇，占25.90%），被引频次最多（58篇）。共被引次数最多的文章是《脂肪营养不良综合征的诊断与管理》（2016），被引用次数为290次。结论：本分析强调了研究趋势和合作网络，未来调查的领域，并确定了差距和新兴趋势，这将为未来的研究方向提供信息。未指定水平：本刊要求作者为每份投稿指定证据水平，以适用循证医学排名。这不包括评论文章、书评和涉及基础科学、动物研究、尸体研究和实验研究的手稿。有关这些循证医学评级的完整描述，请参阅目录或在线作者说明www.springer.com/00266。
期刊介绍：
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is a publication of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the official journal of the European Association of Societies of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (EASAPS), Società Italiana di Chirurgia Plastica Ricostruttiva ed Estetica (SICPRE), Vereinigung der Deutschen Aesthetisch Plastischen Chirurgen (VDAPC), the Romanian Aesthetic Surgery Society (RASS), Asociación Española de Cirugía Estética Plástica (AECEP), La Sociedad Argentina de Cirugía Plástica, Estética y Reparadora (SACPER), the Rhinoplasty Society of Europe (RSE), the Iranian Society of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgeons (ISPAS), the Singapore Association of Plastic Surgeons (SAPS), the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS), the Egyptian Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (ESPRS), and the Sociedad Chilena de Cirugía Plástica, Reconstructiva y Estética (SCCP).
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery provides a forum for original articles advancing the art of aesthetic plastic surgery. Many describe surgical craftsmanship; others deal with complications in surgical procedures and methods by which to treat or avoid them. Coverage includes "second thoughts" on established techniques, which might be abandoned, modified, or improved. Also included are case histories; improvements in surgical instruments, pharmaceuticals, and operating room equipment; and discussions of problems such as the role of psychosocial factors in the doctor-patient and the patient-public interrelationships.
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is covered in Current Contents/Clinical Medicine, SciSearch, Research Alert, Index Medicus-Medline, and Excerpta Medica/Embase.
