Global hotspots and trends on environmental exposure and cardiovascular disease from 1999 to 2022.
Article in World journal of cardiology, 2025. 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
backgroundThe increasing risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) associated with worsening environmental exposure is a critical health concern garnering global research attention.
aimTo systematically assess the scope and characteristics of research on the relationship between environmental exposure and CVD.
methodsA thorough examination of publications on the relationship between environmental exposure and CVD from 1999 to 2022 was carried out by extensively screening the literature using the Web of Science Core Collection. The language of the selected publications was standardized to English. Afterward, different academic tools such as CiteSpace, VOSviewer, HistCite, Python, Matplotlib, and Bibliometrix were utilized to examine the research trends in this field.
resultsThe study's findings indicated a steady increase in scientific publications among the 1640 analyzed documents, peaking in 2022 with 197 publications. The United States emerged as the leading nation regarding high-quality publications and international collaboration. Harvard University was identified as the most prolific institution. "Environmental research" was the most frequently contributing journal, and Muenzel T was recognized as the top contributor. Current research hotspots are primarily concentrated on themes such as "cardiovascular disease", "exposure", "risk", "mortality", and "air pollution".
conclusionThis study highlights increasing research on the link between environmental exposure and CVD, identifying key exposures and diseases while emphasizing the need for further investigation into underlying mechanisms.
