A bibliometric analysis of Wnt signaling pathway: from the top-100 cited articles to emerging trends.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Wnt signaling pathway plays a vital role in the regulation of development. An increasing number of articles about Wnt pathway components have been published. By analyzing these studies' characteristics and qualities, we aim to reveal the current research focus and emerging trends in Wnt signaling.

Methods

The databases of Web of Science Core Collection, BIOSIS Citation Index, MEDLINE, etc. were utilized to identify articles on May 23rd, 2020. Wnt signaling pathway-related articles were identified, the 100 most cited articles and articles in the last decade were selected and calculated for citations without self-citation. The subsequent analysis included citation density (citations/article age), time-related flux, authorship, institution, journal, geographic distri
