Global research trends on the links between NfL and neurological disorders: A bibliometric analysis and review

Resumen

Background The global incidence of neurological diseases has been on the rise, creating an urgent need for a validated marker. Neurofilament Light Chain (NfL) holds promise as such a marker and has garnered significant attention in the field of neurological diseases over the past decades. Methods Corresponding articles from 2013 to 2023 were collected from the Web of Science database, and data were analyzed by CiteSpace and VOSviewer software. Results A total of 1350 articles were collected from 296 countries/regions, involving 7246 research organizations. Since 2013, among the top ten institutions and authors with the highest number of published papers, the most are from the US and the UK. The United States leads in the number of published papers, but England holds a more momentous position, because it has higher IF. Henrik Zetterberg is the most influential scholar in the field. Conclusions The output of papers mainly relies on researchers from developed countries, and scholars from the United States and England have contributed the largest number of papers. Until now, the importance of NfL in neurological diseases has attracted global attention. In addition, NfL contributes to the potential diagnosis of various neurological disorders and can be used to improve the accuracy of differential diagnosis and prognostic assessment as well as predict the response to treatments. More and more in-depth studies are highly needed in the future.
