Abstract
Background: Sleep disorders, such as insomnia, are pervasive and frequently comorbid with depression, significantly affecting the quality of life of patients. Insomnia is characterized by difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep, which leads to impairment. Depression is characterized by persistent sadness and loss of interest, and it often features symptoms of insomnia. Understanding their interaction will be done for treatment strategies concerning both disorders. Despite the existence of extensive studies on insomnia and depression, there is a significant gap in bibliometric analysis specifically addressing the comorbidity of these two conditions. Objectives: This study is aimed at conducting a bibliometric analysis of research in insomnia comorbid with depression (ICD) to identify research trends, collaboration patterns, influential works, and hotspots. Methods: The study involved performance analysis to evaluate research productivity and trends, science mapping to visualize the intellectual structure and thematic evolution of the field, and network analysis to examine research collaboration and knowledge structure. Tools such as VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and GraphPad Prism were utilized for data analysis. Results: A total of 1624 publications on the comorbidity of insomnia and depression from 2000 to 2024 were included, encompassing both articles and reviews. Publication volume showed a steady growth from 2000 to 2008, followed by a significant increase from 2019 onward. The United States was the most productive country, followed by China. Key authors such as Allison G. Harvey, Charles M. Morin, and Daniel J. Buysse have made substantial contributions to the field. Major influential journals included Sleep Medicine, Journal of Affective Disorders, and Frontiers in Psychiatry. Research trends identified included the exploration of neurobiological mechanisms, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-i), and personalized treatment approaches. Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis provides valuable insights into the evolving landscape of research on ICD. Future research should focus on personalized, multimodal interventions, expanding the application of CBT-i, exploring neurobiological mechanisms, and improving patients' quality of life through integrated treatment strategies.
背景:睡眠障碍,如失眠,是普遍存在的,并经常与抑郁症合并症,显著影响患者的生活质量。失眠的特点是难以开始或维持睡眠,从而导致损害。抑郁症的特征是持续的悲伤和失去兴趣,通常表现为失眠的症状。了解它们的相互作用将有助于制定两种疾病的治疗策略。尽管存在大量关于失眠和抑郁的研究,但在文献计量学分析中,针对这两种疾病的合并症的研究还存在很大的差距。目的:本研究旨在对失眠伴抑郁(ICD)研究进行文献计量分析,识别研究趋势、合作模式、影响作品和热点。方法:采用绩效分析评估研究生产力和趋势;采用科学图谱分析可视化该领域的知识结构和专题演变;采用网络分析考察研究协作和知识结构。使用VOSviewer、CiteSpace、GraphPad Prism等工具进行数据分析。结果:2000 - 2024年共纳入1624篇关于失眠与抑郁共病的文献,包括文章和综述。出版物数量从2000年到2008年稳步增长,随后从2019年开始大幅增长。美国是生产率最高的国家,其次是中国。主要作者如Allison G. Harvey, Charles M. Morin和Daniel J. Buysse对该领域做出了重大贡献。主要有影响力的期刊包括《睡眠医学》、《情感障碍杂志》和《精神病学前沿》。确定的研究趋势包括探索神经生物学机制、失眠的认知行为疗法(CBT-i)和个性化治疗方法。结论:这一文献计量学分析为ICD研究的发展前景提供了有价值的见解。未来的研究应注重个性化、多模式干预,扩大CBT-i的应用,探索神经生物学机制,通过综合治疗策略提高患者的生活质量。
