From the result of academic collaboration between different countries/regions and institutions, the USA occupies a central position in research strength. A total of 18,101 authors participated in research on \"perioperative management in diabetic patients\" with Dr. Guillermo E. Umpierrez from Emory University School of Medicine being the most productive author. We conclude that perioperative adverse clinical outcomes in diabetic patients and perioperative blood glucose management have consistently been research hotspots in this field. Additionally, continuous glucose monitoring and insulin administration under computer guidance, as well as the use of merging medications are likely to be frontier directions for future research. Research on perioperative care for diabetic patients has been further deepened worldwide, which will be crucial in further improving perioperative care for diabetic patients and enhancing postoperative recovery.</p>","PeriodicalId":19764,"journal":{"name":"Perioperative Medicine","volume":"14 1","pages":"50"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12042523/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144022928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
