Emerging Trends and Research Foci in Tumor Microenvironment of Pancreatic Cancer: A Bibliometric and Visualized Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a serious disease with high mortality. The tumor microenvironment plays a key role in the occurrence and development of PC. The purpose of this study is to analyze trends by year, country, institution, journal, reference and keyword in publications on the PC microenvironment and to predict future research hotspots.

Methods

The Web of Science Core Collection was used to search for publications. We analyzed the contributions of various countries/regions, institutes, and authors and identified research hotspots and promising future trends using the CiteSpace and VOSviewer programs. We also summarized relevant completed clinical trials.

Results

A total of 2,155 papers on the PC microenvironment published between 2011 and 2021 were incl
