Decade before, pifenidone and nintedanib were approved for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, but no more drugs are yet available. To evaluate the development traits of pirfenidone and nintedanib in fibrosing ILD, including the influential country, institution, authors, keywords, and the major problems or the priorities of the field emerge and evolve, bibliometric analysis was used to summarize and draw scientific knowledge maps.

Methods

We confined the words to "pirfenidone", "nintedanib", "pulmonary fibrosis", and "lung disease, interstitial". Publications were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection o
