Abstract
Objective: To explore the research hotspots and development trends in the field of liver fibrosis diagnosis by using visualization methods. Methods: The relevant literatures on liver fibrosis diagnosis were downloaded from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure database. CiteSpace 5.3.R6 software was used to analyze the authors, institutions and key node information to explore the main research groups, institutions and research hotspots and development trends of this field. Results: The analysis showed that the main research authors were Cai Weimin, Guo Qiyong, etc. The main research institutions included were Shengjing Hospital affiliated to China Medical University, Shenzhen Third People's Hospital, etc. The current diagnosis of liver fibrosis was mainly focused on invasive (liver biopsy) and non-invasive (serology, imaging) diagnosis. The non-invasive diagnosis may be the research hotspot and direction of liver fibrosis in the future. Conclusion: The visualization analysis of liver fibrosis diagnosis by CiteSpace software can quickly and intuitively understand the basic knowledge and evolution of this field, as well as the main research directions, hot spots and future development trends.
