Knowledge Domain and Emerging Trends in Heart Failure and Anxiety Comorbidity: A Scientometric Analysis.
Article in Journal of multidisciplinary healthcare, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: The high prevalence of anxiety disorders among heart failure (HF) patients significantly impacts clinical outcomes, yet a comprehensive analysis of the global research landscape is lacking. This study explores research trends, knowledge structure, and emerging hotspots in the field of HF and anxiety comorbidity over the past decade. Methods: A bibliometric analysis was conducted on 1,475 publications from the Web of Science Core Collection (2015-2024). A total of 1,475 English-language publications, including articles and reviews, were analyzed. CiteSpace and VOSviewer were used to analyze collaboration networks, references, and keywords. The search tool for the retrieval of interacting genes database was applied to construct a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of HF and anxiety comorbidity. R with clusterProfiler was applied to perform kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway enrichment analysis. Cytoscape was applied to visualize both the PPI network and the significant pathways. Results: Annual publications increased steadily, peaking in 2021. The United States of America and China emerged as the most productive countries. Key contributors included Linkoping University and Harvard Medical School. Keyword analysis revealed evolving focuses from mortality and depression to self-care, cardiac rehabilitation, and psychological assessment tools. Gene intersection analysis identified 124 shared genes, with hub genes such as AKT1, TP53, and IL6 implicated in MAPK, FoxO, and JAK-STAT signaling pathways. These results suggest neuroendocrine and inflammatory mechanisms linking HF and anxiety. Conclusion: This study offers the bibliometric and molecular insight into the HF and anxiety comorbidity landscape. While research output and mechanistic understanding have grown, gaps remain in standardized assessment and clinical translation. Future studies should focus on translating these mechanistic insights into strategies that improve integrated care and quality of life for patients living with the dual burden of heart failure and anxiety.
