Abstract

ABSTRACT A growing body of research indicates the promising potential of vaccines in both preventing and treating atherosclerosis (AS). To gain a comprehensive understanding of the current research landscape and emerging trends in this field, this study conducted a bibliometric analysis of publications on AS vaccines using the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database, based on the “bibliometric” R package and VOSviewer software. From 1991 to 2024, a total of 462 publications were identified in the WoSCC. The United States appeared as the leading contributor in terms of both total publications and citations. The Vaccine journal exhibited the highest publications output. Nilsson J from the Lund University in Sweden was the author with the most published articles, total citations and Hirsch index (H-index). Keywords analysis and thematic maps analysis revealed the passive immunotherapy (AS protective antibodies vaccines) was a hot mature theme, the active immunotherapy (AS antigens vaccines) was an emerging and booming theme, while the efficacy and safety of AS vaccines was a niche and well-developed theme. These findings offered valuable insights into the AS vaccination and provided guidance for future research in this domain.
