A bibliometric analysis of the application of stem cells in glaucoma research from 1999 to 2022.

ABSTRACT: Background: Glaucoma, a neurodegenerative disease of the retina, is the leading cause of irreversible blindness. Stem cells have therapeutic potential for glaucoma. However, few bibliometric studies have been published in this field. Concerning a visual map, this article aims to characterize the research context, cooperation relationship, hotspots, and trends concerning the application of stem cells in glaucoma research. Methods: Publications focusing on stem cell research and glaucoma were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. VOSviewer, CiteSpace, Microsoft Excel, and Scimago Graphica were used to map the contributions of countries or regions, authors, organizations, and journals. Journal Impact Factor data were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection.
