Mapping the research landscape of microRNAs in pain: a comprehensive bibliometric analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in molecular neuroscience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background and objectives: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have demonstrated significant potential in pain medicine research, including mechanisms, diagnosis, and therapy. However, no relative bibliometric analysis has been performed to summarize the progress in this area quantitatively. Methods: Literature was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection online database. A total of 1,295 papers were retrieved between January 1, 2000 and September 21, 2023 and underwent visualization and analysis using R software [Library [bibliometrix] and biblioshiny packages], VOSviewer (version 1.6.18), CiteSpace software (version 6.2.R4), and the bibliometrics website (http://bibliometric.com). Results: Publications in this field have increased annually since 2000, demonstrating growing research interest. China emerged as the most productive country, followed by the United States and Germany. Keyword analysis identified "expression," "neuropathic pain," and "microRNAs" as the most relevant keywords. Extensive collaboration among countries and institutions was also observed. Conclusion: The bibliometric analysis revealed a rapid growth of publications related to miRNAs and pain in the past 2 decades. Keywords analysis indicates that "expression," "neuropathic pain," and "microRNA" are the most frequently used words in this research field. However, more robust and globally recognized basic studies and clinical trials from prestigious journals are required.
