Obesity and overweight are significant global health issues, and numerous obesity intervention studies have been conducted. Summarizing current knowledge of interventions aims to inform researchers and policymakers to keep up-to-date with the latest scientific advancements and trends. In this review, we comprehensively retrieved and screened 4,541 studies on obesity intervention published between 2018 and 2022 in the Web of Science Core Collection, and objectively presented research frontiers using bibliometric analysis. The research frontiers of intervention are mainly focused on dietary, exercise, pharmacological interventions, bariatric surgery, environmental, and cognitive interventions. Time-restricted eating is the hottest research topic, followed by probiotics and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Gut microbiota is located in the “Basic and transversal themes” quadrant with a high centrality and low density, which has great development potentiality. Obesity intervention is becoming increasingly common,and we advocate for researchers to undertake more focused research endeavors that consider the specific characteristics of diverse populations or patients.

Aims Digital health technologies are designed, implemented, and evaluated to support clinical practice, enable patients to self-manage illness, and further public and global health. Nursing and health policies often emphasise the importance of evidence-based digital health services to deliver better care. However, the contribution nurses make to digital health research in many countries is unknown. Hence, this study aims to examine digital health research conducted by nurses in England. Design A bibliometric analysis. Methods The CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Scopus databases were searched between 2000 and 2022, and supplemented with a hand search of nurses’ research profiles. Results were screened by title, abstract, and full text against eligibility criteria. Data were extracted and bibliometric analysis used to summarise the findings. Results Mental health nurses produced the most digital health research in England, followed by nurses working in community care, with several disciplines underrepresented or missing. Web/online health services or information was the most researched technology, followed by mobile health and telehealth. Nurses based in the south-east and north-west of England produced the most digital health research, with other regions less well represented. Conclusion Nurse leaders should support nurses to conduct more digital health research by providing dedicated time, funding, and professional development opportunities, particularly in under researched clinical areas, technologies, and geographic regions to further evidence-based practice and patient care. More digital nursing data is needed to support nurse led research in areas like artificial intelligence and data science. The findings supported the national Philips Ives Review by identifying areas of digital nursing research that need more investment in England.

Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by persistent sinonasal inflammation and sinus microbiome dysbiosis. Nasal polyps (NPs) are one of the main manifestations that cause diverse clinical symptoms of CRS. Objective We sought to conduct a bibliometric and visual analysis of articles on CRS and NPs published between 2003 and 2022 to provide researchers with the current state of research and potential directions. Methods We searched relevant articles from 2003 to 2022 in the Web of Science database. VOSviewer and the Bibliometrix R package were used to perform the bibliometric analysis. Results A total of 3907 publications were retrieved. The United States made the highest contributions to global research, followed by China. Northwestern University had the most publications. The most published author was C. Bachert, followed by R. P. Schleimer and R. J. Schlosser. The authors with the most co-citations were C. Bachert, W. J. Fokkens, and P. Gevaert. Moreover, the journal with the most publications was the International Forum of Allergy & Rhinology, and the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology was the most cited. “Covid-19,” “biologics,” and “type 2 inflammation” were the top current research hotspots. Conclusions The United States and Northwestern University were the leading country and institution in researching CRS and NPs. C. Bachert was the most influential expert. The International Forum of Allergy & Rhinology and the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology were leading journals. “Covid-19,” “biologics,” and “type 2 inflammation” were the trending topics.
