Abstract

The toxicity of implants is a vital factor affecting the safety of implants. The bibliometric analysis had been conducted to understand the active authors, organizations, journals, and countries involved in the research domain of “toxicity of Chromium implants”. All published articles related to “toxicity of Chromium implants” from “Scopus”, were analyzed using the VOS viewer to develop analysis tables and visualization maps. This article had set the objective to consolidate the scientific literature regarding “toxicity of Chromium implants” and also to find out the trends related to the same. The most active journals in this research domain were the Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, and Biomaterials. The most active country was the United States of America. The leading organizations were the University Medical Center and the University of Strathclyde. The most active authors were Grant M.H., Jacobs J.J, and Savarino I.

Highlights

  • An engineered medical device to replace a missing or damaged biological structure is known as an implant.Different types of metals and materials are used to create implants and the most popularly used metals and alloys for bio-implants are stainless steel, cobalt-chromium alloy, and Titanium(Priyanka et al, 2014)

  • The toxicity of implant can be possible through wear and corrosion of the metal; and through allergy of the metal implant

  • After using filters “Article” and “English” the second round search produced an outcome of 139 English articles and had been used to conduct bibliometric analysis and visualization using VOS Viewer

Summary

Introduction

An engineered medical device to replace a missing or damaged biological structure is known as an implant.Different types of metals and materials are used to create implants and the most popularly used metals and alloys for bio-implants are stainless steel, cobalt-chromium alloy, and Titanium(Priyanka et al, 2014). This bibliometric analysis will be a useful platform for future researchers by realizing the top researchers, organizations, and countries involved in research regarding the toxicity of chromium based-implants. B) Which are the main organizations and countries working on the toxicity of chromium implants?
