Analysis of research trends and development prospects of soluble guanylate cyclase stimulators/activators: using bibliometric methods.
Synthesis in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: The stimulation and activation of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) has been a prominent focus of study in recent years. Currently, sGC stimulators/activators have a wide range of applications in various fields. However, there remains a gap in bibliometric analysis on this topic. We aim to visualize the research hotspots and trends in the field of sGC stimulators or activators. This analysis can equip researchers to understand current findings and forecast future trends efficiently. Methods: The researchers searched for publications on sGC stimulators or activators in Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) on 22 July 2024. We then organized and analyzed the data using Microsoft Excel, online tool (Weishengxin), R, VOS viewer, and CiteSpace. Results: 1,879 papers from WoSCC were gathered for analysis, comprising 1,582 articles and 297 reviews. The United States is the most productive country. And Germany stands out as the country with the most robust collaboration. The most productive institution is BAYER AG. Furthermore, the majority of journals with citation frequencies in the top 10 belong to Q1. The Professor Stasch, JP is the most prolific author and the top co-cited author. Currently, the influential keywords include "riociguat", "outcome", "guanylate cyclase stimulator", "heart failure", "natriuretic peptide", "vericiguat", "reduced ejection fraction", "mortality" and "placebo". Conclusion: The future research hotspots will focus on the following aspects based on the current research hotspots: the safety verification of riociguat, the clinical efficacy of vericiguat for other types of heart failure, the role of praliciguat in diabetes nephropathy, and the efficacy and safety of newly discovered drugs. Furthermore, actively exploring new therapeutic directions for sGC stimulators or activators may also be an important trend in the future development of this field.
