Abstract:
Electroencephalography (EEG) is a widely used tool in neuroscience. To explore the features of the top 100 cited articles related to EEG and aging over the past decade, we conducted a bibliometric analysis using Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) data as of January 21, 2024. The selected top 100 cited papers were analyzed using VOSviewer and Excel. We examined the distribution of publication years, authors, institutions, countries/regions, and journals. Hotspots were identified through keyword analysis. The analyzed articles were published between 2014 and 2021, with the majority being published before 2020 (n=91). Citation counts in WoSCC ranged from 24 to 250, with a median of 40 and a mean of 53. A total of 818 authors from 283 institutions in 35 countries/territories contributed to these top papers. The United States of America (USA) (n=37), Germany (n=14), and Canada (n=11) ranked in the top three in terms of total publications or citations. The predominant journals were in the fields of Neuroscience (n=58), Geriatrics & Gerontology (n=22), Clinical Neurology (n=13), and Anesthesiology (n=9), which published most of the high-quality articles. Key themes included EEG, aging, Alzheimer\'s disease, mild cognitive impairment, functional connectivity, and alpha oscillations. Emerging topics included sleep, machine learning, delirium, postoperative cognitive function, virtual reality, monitoring, resting state, coherence, and transcranial direct current stimulation. In conclusion, this study provides a comprehensive overview of the trends in scientific literature on EEG in aging over the past decade. Authors and institutions from North America, Europe, and East Asia led in contributions. Journals focusing on neuroscience, geriatrics, and anesthesiology published the majority of articles. Degenerative neurological diseases and cognitive impairment were prominent topics, suggesting future studies should explore EEG\'s diagnostic utility for these disorders.
摘要:
脑电图(EEG)是神经科学中广泛使用的工具。探讨过去十年来与脑电图和衰老相关的前100篇文章的特点,我们使用截至2024年1月21日的WebofScience核心合集(WoSCC)数据进行了文献计量分析.使用VOSviewer和Excel对选定的前100篇论文进行分析。我们检查了出版年份的分布,作者,机构,国家/地区,和期刊。通过关键词分析确定了热点。分析的文章发表在2014年至2021年之间,大部分发表在2020年之前(n=91)。WoSCC中的引文计数范围为24至250,中位数为40,平均值为53。来自35个国家/地区的283个机构的818名作者为这些顶级论文做出了贡献。美利坚合众国(美国)(n=37),德国(n=14),和加拿大(n=11)在总出版物或引文方面排名前三。主要期刊是神经科学领域(n=58),老年医学与老年学(n=22),临床神经病学(n=13),麻醉学(n=9),发表了大部分高质量的文章。关键主题包括脑电图,老化,老年痴呆症,轻度认知障碍,功能连接,和阿尔法振荡。新兴话题包括睡眠,机器学习,谵妄,术后认知功能,虚拟现实,监测,静止状态,连贯性,和经颅直流电刺激。总之,本研究全面概述了过去十年有关脑电图在衰老中的科学文献趋势.来自北美的作者和机构,欧洲,东亚带头捐款。专注于神经科学的期刊,老年病学,麻醉学发表了大部分文章。退行性神经疾病和认知障碍是突出的话题,建议未来的研究应该探索脑电图对这些疾病的诊断效用。
