Abstract
AbstractObjectivesThis study aimed to perform a bibliometric analysis utilizing the Web of Science database on osteoporosis and nutrition-related research published from 2004 to 2024.BackgroundIn recent years, the intricate association between nutrition and osteoporosis has garnered increasing attention. However, there is currently no published bibliometric research on this topic.MethodsThe data were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) from inception to 2024-01-31 and analyzed using bibliometric methods and CiteSpace, incorporating variables such as annual publication volume, author patterns, institutional affiliations, country/region contributions, journal publications, highly cited literature, and keyword clustering.ResultsA total of 2138 articles were assessed, revealing a consistent upward trend in published works in this domain, with the majority originating from the United States. Seoul National University was identified as the most prolific institution. Among the authors, Geng, Bin were the most prolific, while Kanis J.A. garnered the highest citation count. Research hotspots included bone density, postmenopausal women, vitamin D, hip fractures, etc. Research subjects included physical activity, sarcopenia, calcium intake, machine learning, etc.ConclusionsOur comprehensive analysis offers overviews of research trends and hotspots in the field of osteoporosis and nutrition over the past two decades, highlighting some shortcomings and hopefully providing valuable insights and guidance for future researchers and decision-makers.
