Core Tip
Core Tip: Here, we try to put forward the scientometric analysis method of diabetic encephalopathy (DE) and suggest a future research direction. The statistical results of keyword analysis were manually classified, including inducing factors, complications, pathogenesis, treatment, and animal model of DE. We combine scientometric analysis with historical review to find key evidence and highlight emerging DE trends. Exploring the solution to DE is an urgent problem to be solved. Therefore, there is more and more research in the field of DE. Because there is no research literature in this area, it is of great guiding significance to further explore DE’s prevention and control measures.
