Abstract：
After confirming that formaldehyde (FA) is carcinogenic, many studies were conducted in different countries to investigate this finding. Therefore, according to the dispersion of related studies, a bibliometric review of the current literature was performed with the aim of better understanding the exposure to FA and the resulting health risk, for the first time, using the Scopus database and the two open-source software packages, Bibliometrix R package. After screening the documents in Excel, the data was analyzed based on three aspects including performance analysis, conceptual structure, and intellectual structure, and the results were presented in tables and diagrams. A total of 468 documents were analyzed over period 1977-2023, in which 1956 authors from 56 countries participated. The number of scientific publications has grown significantly from 1977 (n = 1) to 2022 (n = 19). Zhang Y., from the Yale School of Public Health (USA), was identified as the most impactful author in this field. The Science of the Total Environment journal was identified as the main source of articles related to exposure to formaldehyde by publishing 25 studies. The United States and China were the most active countries with the most international collaboration. The main topics investigated during these 46 years included \"formaldehyde\" and \"health risk assessment\", which have taken new directions in recent years with the emergence of the keyword \"asthma\". The present study provides a comprehensive view of the growth and evolution of studies related to formaldehyde and the resulting health risks, which can provide a better understanding of existing research gaps and new and emerging issues.
摘要：
确认甲醛（FA）致癌后，在不同国家进行了许多研究来调查这一发现。因此,根据相关研究的分散，对现有文献进行了文献计量学综述，目的是更好地了解FA的暴露和由此产生的健康风险，第一次,使用Scopus数据库和两个开源软件包，BibliometrixR包。在Excel中筛选文档后，数据基于三个方面进行了分析，包括性能分析，概念结构，和智力结构，结果如表和图表所示。在1977年至2023年期间，共分析了468篇文献，其中来自56个国家的1956位作者参与了研究。从1977年（n=1）到2022年（n=19），科学出版物的数量显着增长。张勇,耶鲁大学公共卫生学院（美国），被确定为这一领域最有影响力的作者。通过发表25项研究，《全面环境科学》杂志被确定为与甲醛暴露有关的文章的主要来源。美国和中国是国际合作最活跃的国家。在这46年中调查的主要主题包括“甲醛”和“健康风险评估”，近年来，随着关键词“哮喘”的出现，这些关键词采取了新的方向。本研究提供了与甲醛相关的研究的发展和演变以及由此产生的健康风险的全面视图，这可以更好地了解现有的研究差距和新出现的问题。
