Who is Focusing on Women's Health: A Bibliometric Analysis of Global Research Trends on Overweight in Female Patients with Gynecologic or Breast Cancer.
Article in International journal of women's health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objective: Obesity has become a significant public health concern, strongly linked to various diseases, particularly gynecologic and breast cancers. This bibliometric review aims to analyze global research trends on overweight women, particularly those with gynecologic and breast cancers, to identify research hotspots, key contributors, and emerging areas of study. Methods: A comprehensive bibliometric analysis was conducted using the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database, covering the period from January 2013 to September 2024. Articles were screened and analyzed using tools such as VOSviewer and Biblioshiny platform, with metrics including publication volume, citation analysis, and co-authorship networks. Key areas of focus were global research trends, leading countries, institutions, authors, journals, and keyword analysis. Results: A total of 1452 publications were analyzed. Research activity on the association between obesity and gynecologic/breast cancer has steadily increased, with the United States leading in publications and citations, followed by China and Italy. Core journals included Breast Cancer Research and Treatment and Gynecologic Oncology. Key research areas identified through keyword analysis include the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and cancer risk, survival rates in cancer patients, physical activity, and the role of adipose tissue inflammation in tumor progression. Emerging topics include extracellular vesicles and cancer-associated fibroblasts. Conclusion: Global research on the relationship between obesity and female-specific cancers has shown significant growth. The findings highlight BMI, survival, and physical activity as central themes. Future research should explore the molecular mechanisms linking obesity to cancer and evaluate weight loss interventions for cancer prevention and treatment.
