Global Research Topics and Trends of Myocardial Infarction with Nonobstructive Coronary Arteries: A Bibliometric Analysis.
Article in Research in heart yield and translational medicine, 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
Highlights: MINOCA research output has increased markedly, led by the United States, Italy, and China.Key research hotspots include pathophysiology, imaging diagnostics, prognosis, and sex differences.Current evidence highlights the need for standardized diagnostics and tailored management strategies. Background: Myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is a heterogeneous clinical entity characterized by evidence of myocardial infarction (MI) in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) on angiography. This study aimed to explore and visualize the global research trends and hotspots of MINOCA using bibliometric approaches. Methods: The search was performed on October 1, 2025, using the keyword "MINOCA" and its synonyms. Data were obtained from the Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed databases and analyzed using RStudio (version 4.5.0), employing the Bibliometrix package (via Biblioshiny) alongside VOSviewer (version 1.6.20) for bibliometric visualization. Results: A total of 1,562 publications related to MINOCA were identified, showing a marked increase in output over the past decade. The mean number of citations per article was 19.21, with the highest citation count occurring in 2018. International Journal of Cardiology published the most articles, while F. Crea was the most contributing author. The United States, Italy, and China emerged as leading contributors. High-impact articles primarily focused on the pathophysiology, diagnostic algorithms, and prognosis of MINOCA. Keyword analysis revealed evolving research hotspots, including pathophysiology, imaging diagnostics, prognosis, therapy, and sex differences, indicating a growing focus on precision diagnostics and patient-tailored management strategies in MINOCA research. Conclusion: The research landscape of MINOCA has expanded substantially, with growing attention to its underlying mechanisms and diagnostic challenges. Future studies should prioritize the development of standardized diagnostic criteria and the implementation of tailored therapeutic approaches. This bibliometric analysis provides a valuable framework for clinicians and researchers to navigate the evolving field of MINOCA.
