Global research trends and hotspot evolution of olfactory dysfunction from 2014 to 2024: a bibliometric analysis.
Review in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2026. 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
Background: Olfactory dysfunction (OD) significantly impacts health and quality of life. However, the specific mechanisms underlying olfactory disorders and effective therapeutic interventions remain unclear. Conducting a bibliometric analysis of the extensive OD literature could provide valuable insights for addressing these issues. Objective: To characterize the research landscape of olfactory disorders over the past decade and identify emerging research foci through bibliometric analysis. Materials and methods: We retrieved OD-related publications from the Web of Science Core Collection (2014-2024) and performed bibliometric analysis and visualization using the Biblioshiny online tool. Results: The analysis included 1560 articles on OD, authored by 7424 researchers across 312 journals. Annual publication output and total citations per article showed stable, slight increases. Conclusions: This study delineates the current status and evolution of OD research, suggesting that epithelial repair, nerve regeneration, and the impact of OD on quality of life represent promising innovative research directions.
