ABSTRACT
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common clinical malignant arrhythmia with an increasing global incidence. Ion channel dysfunction is an important mechanism in the development of AF. In this study, we used bibliometrics to analyze the studies of ion channels and AF, aiming to provide inspiration and reference for researchers. A total of 3179 literature citations were obtained from Web of Science core databases. Analysis software included Excel 2019, VOSviewer 1.6.16, and CiteSpace 5.7.R2. This field of research has been growing since 1985. The most active country is the United States. The University of Montreal is the most important research institution. The journal Cardiovascular Research has published the largest number of articles in this field. Stanley Nattel and Dobromir Dobrev are the most frequently cited authors. The most cited literature was published in Nature and Science. Cardiac electrophysiology, gene expression, pathogenesis of AF, and AF prevention and treatment are the hot topics for this field research. Cardiac fibrillation and catheter ablation may be future research hotspots in this field.
