Global research trends on the links between prostate cancer and erectile dysfunction between 2003 and 2023: A bibliometrics and visualized study

Resumen

Background The incidence of prostate cancer (PC) has increased in recent years. Erectile dysfunction (ED) after prostate cancer treatment has aroused extensive attention. Bibliometric analysis was designed to investigate a systematic understanding of developments between PC and ED during the past 20 years. Methods Literatures on PC and ED were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database (WoSCC). By using the VOS viewer and CiteSpace software to analysis the metrics of bibliometric literature, such as number of articles, journals, countries, institutions, authors, keywords and associated information. The number of publications per year was statistically analysed and plotted thorough Microsoft Office. In addition, Pajek software was used to adjust the visual map. Results A total of 2332 screened articles were included in the analysis. The Journal of Sexual Medicine, ranking first among the analysed journals, published 235 articles. The United States and Canada were leaders in PC and ED research. There is a need to strengthen inter-agency cooperation in this area of research on a global scale. Mulhall JP, as the most prolific author in this area of research, published 80 articles. And Rosen RC was the author with the most co-citated (693 co-citated). The main research focus on the prevention, treatment and management of ED after PC treatment in this field through the keyword analysis. Conclusions Research on PC and ED is expected to expand further worldwide. We found ED, as new sustainable treatment modalities, scientific postoperative management and psychological interventions for patients, may become the research hotspots and should be closely concerned in this study.
