Abstract

Background: Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory liver disease characterized by a sustained inflammatory response in the liver, usually associated with abnormalities in the immune system.The purpose of this study was to utilize bibliometric analysis to assess the current state of research on AIH and to predict future research areas and emerging trends.

Objective: In this study, we used bibliometric analysis to comprehensively analyze the literature on Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) published during the past two decades.

Methods: Literature from 2003 to 2023 was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection, the world's leading citation indexing database. Visualization and analysis were performed using VOSviewer 1.6.18 and CiteSpace 6.2.R3 software.

Results: The study covered 6,390 papers by 28,037 authors from 291 institutions in 110 countries. AIH research output grew significantly, peaking in 2023. The US was the top contributor, followed by China and Japan. Notable institutions included the University of London, Mayo Clinic, and King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. AIH research spans medicine, healthcare, clinical sciences, molecular biology, immunology, etc. CONCLUSION: In this paper, we have used bibliometric analysis to systematically review and analyze the research literature on autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) over the past two decades. This comprehensive overview aims to provide scholars dedicated to this field with a clear research lineage and future research directions.

自身免疫性肝炎研究的趋势与热点：基于文献计量学分析。

背景：自身免疫性肝炎（AIH）是一种以肝脏持续炎症反应为特征的慢性炎症性肝病，通常与免疫系统异常有关。本研究的目的是利用文献计量学分析来评估AIH的研究现状，并预测未来的研究领域和新兴趋势。目的：在本研究中，我们采用文献计量学分析对近二十年来发表的有关自身免疫性肝炎（AIH）的文献进行综合分析。方法：从全球领先的引文索引数据库Web of Science Core Collection检索2003 - 2023年的文献。使用VOSviewer 1.6.18和CiteSpace 6.2进行可视化分析。R3软件。结果：该研究涵盖了来自110个国家291个机构的28,037位作者的6,390篇论文。AIH研究产出显著增长，在2023年达到峰值。美国是最大的贡献者，其次是中国和日本。著名的机构包括伦敦大学、梅奥诊所和国王学院医院NHS基金会信托基金。AIH研究横跨医学、卫生保健、临床科学、分子生物学、免疫学等领域。结论：本文采用文献计量学分析方法，对近二十年来有关自身免疫性肝炎（AIH）的研究文献进行系统回顾和分析。这篇综述旨在为致力于该领域的学者提供一个清晰的研究脉络和未来的研究方向。
