Ketogenic Diet and Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases: A Bibliometric Study and Visualization Analysis.
Article in Endocrine, metabolic & immune disorders drug targets, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe ketogenic diet, known for its high-fat, low-carbohydrate composition, has been extensively studied in endocrine and metabolic diseases. This study carried out bibliometric analysis to examine the research trends in this field over the past 20 years, aiming to provide insights for future studies.
methodsWe searched the Web of Science Core Collection for all relevant papers. VOSviewer was used for network visualization, the bibliometrix package of R software (version 4.3.0) was utilized for data analysis, and CiteSpace was employed for mapping and trend analysis.
resultsThis study encompassed 508 relevant articles spanning from 2003 to 2023, authored by 2827 researchers from 887 institutions across 57 countries/regions. The total number of publications increased from 3 in 2003 to 508 in 2023, showing a steady growth trend. The United States emerged as the predominant contributor in this field, followed by Italy and China. Notably, SAJOUX I consistently exhibited high activity in this field, according to the analysis, with an h-index of 13. The journal Nutrients has consistently made substantial contributions to this field, accounting for 19% of all publications. The keywords "obesity," "ketogenic diet," and "weight loss" appeared most frequently, with "obesity" occurring 163 times.
conclusionThis study used a bibliometric method to analyze the impact of the ketogenic diet on the endocrine metabolic system. The research identifies recent frontiers and trending directions, providing valuable references for scholars in this field.
