title: Bibliometric study and visual analysis of postoperative diabetes mellitus in kidney transplant recipients based on WoSCC database

description: In recent years, the increase of the post-transplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM) after renal transplantation encourages people to do a lot of research on the disease. This paper conducted a bibliometric study on PTDM related literature to explore the risk factors of diabetes after kidney transplantation, as well as the current status, hotspots and development trends of PTDM research, so as to provide reference for researchers in related fields. We searched the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database for PTDM literature from January 1, 1990, to August 20, 2023, and used VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and the R package ‘bibliometrix’ to do bibliometric analysis. Obesity, 3 months after transplantation tacrolimus concentration &gt;10 ng/mL, temporary hyperglycemia, delayed graft function, acute rejection is specific risk factors related to PTDM in renal transplant recipients. In addition, 74 countries led by China and the United States published 1546 papers, and the number of PTDM-related publications is increasing every year. Primary institutions included the University of California, Los Angeles, Mayo Clinic, University of Oslo, and University of Toronto. The Journal of Transplantation is the most widely read journal in the subject. The authors with the most published literature are Trond Jenssen and Adnan Sharif, and the most cited author is Kasiske BL. Expectations for continued growth in global PTDM research are increasingly high. Future studies will mainly focus on exploring the risk factors of PTDM and identifying new therapeutic approaches and targets. Our study conducts a thorough bibliometric analysis of the current state of research on post-transplantation diabetes, providing a comprehensive overview of the existing literature.By employing advanced visualization techniques, we identify emerging trends, key contributors, and collaborative networks within the field of post-transplantation diabetes research.Our study offers insights into the global distribution of research output, shedding light on the geographical concentration of post-transplantation diabetes studies and potential areas for future collaboration.We categorize and analyze the major themes and topics within post-transplantation diabetes research, revealing the critical areas that have received significant attention and those that may warrant further exploration.In addition to summarizing the current state of knowledge, our study discusses the prospects and future directions for post-transplantation diabetes research, guiding researchers and practitioners toward impactful areas of study.
