ABSTRACT
Objective To provide the scientific evidence for studying Alzheimer's disease (AD) and decision-making for its management by analyzing the strategic information of hotspots in studies on AD.Methods Citation strategic coordinate diagram was plotted by describing the history of studies on AD with co-citation clustering for further understanding the novelty and concern of hotspots in studies on AD.The current hotspots in studies on AD were discovered by co-words clustering and their strategic coordinates were analyzed to reveal their development periods.Results The current hotspots in studies on AD were substance metabolism in AD patients, etiology of AD and therapies for AD.The diagnosis of AD according to its clinical characteristics and hypothesis on amyloid cascade in AD patients were greatly concerned.Conclusion Citation strategic coordinate analysis and co-words strategic coordinate analysis can display the hotspots in studies on AD and their development history.
ABSTRACT
The hotspots and frontiers in studies on medical information education were identified with key words cluster algorithm and burst words detection algorithm by making use of CiteSpaceⅢwith 540 papers on medical in-formation education published in core journals of medical information education from 2007 to 2016 as sample data, which showed that the 7 hotspots and frontiers in studies on medical information education from 2007 to 2016 in medical information education field of China and can thus provide support for keeping abreast of its development trend and working out its development strategies.
ABSTRACT
Papers on medical information system published in 16 medical journals in 2013 JCR with their IF≥1 were retrieved from Web of Science(2010-2014).Social network analysis and co-word analysis of their high fre-quency key words showed that efficiency of medical information system implementation, acceptance behaviors of medical information system users, mining of medical data, application of medical information system in medical sci-ences, and application of decision support system in medical sciences were the hotspots in papers on medical infor-mation system.The authors pointed out that electronic health records, medical information system management, and application of emerging information technology in medical information system were still the study hotspots in the coming years.
