More and more articles have shown that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play a significant role in the pathogenesis and prognosis of ischemic stroke. However, the bibliometric analysis in ncRNAs and ischemic stroke is still lacking. This study retrieved the Web of Science Core Collection for relevant articles from January 1, 2010 to April 6, 2023. Bibliometrix R, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace were used to perform the bibliometric analysis. A total of 1058 articles were eligible for this review. The number of publications showed a fluctuating upward trend. The total citations were 28,698 times, and the average number of citations per article was 27.12 times. Our findings indicated ncRNAs has been increasingly investigated for its critical role in apoptosis, autophagy, angiogenesis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and blood-brain barrier after ischemic stroke by regulating target mRNAs, extracellular secretion, target proteins, and others. The microRNAs, circular RNAs, and long ncRNAs may be hotspots, and ferroptosis, METTL3, and exosome might be frontier in this field. Besides, ncRNAs have a promising future as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers, molecular drug targets, and other targeted therapies for ischemic stroke. However, it still faces many challenges to be successfully applied in the clinical practice.

Diabetes is a significant global health issue, causing extensive morbidity and mortality, and represents a serious threat to human health. Recently, the bioactive lipid molecule Sphingosine-1-Phosphate has garnered considerable attention in the field of diabetes research. The aim of this study is to comprehensively understand the mechanisms by which Sphingosine-1-Phosphate regulates diabetes. Through comprehensive bibliometric analysis and an in-depth review of relevant studies, we investigated and summarized various mechanisms through which Sphingosine-1-Phosphate acts in prediabetes, type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and their complications (such as diabetic nephropathy, retinopathy, cardiovascular disease, neuropathy, etc.), including but not limited to regulating lipid metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and inflammatory responses. This scholarly work not only unveils new possibilities for using Sphingosine-1-Phosphate in diabetes treatment but also offers fresh insights and recommendations for future research directions to researchers.

In recent years, live streaming commerce (LSC) has become a popular research topic. However, current studies on LSC are relatively insufficient, and analyses have generally focused on its specific aspects, lacking a comprehensive and systematic perspective. Hence, this study utilises CiteSpace to undertake a visual bibliometric analysis aimed at delineating the knowledge framework and evolution of LSC and indicates future research directions to provide a comprehensive picture of the development of this dynamic field over the past six years. The results show that LSC is a thriving subject with several growing annual publications. Additionally, a strong collaboration exists between institutions and authors. Further, 'influence', 'consumer behaviour' and 'consumer purchase intention' are more popular in this domain and have assumed a leading position in recent research. Moreover, novel research trajectories have emerged, indicating interdisciplinary integration within the field. This study is innovative as it combines live streaming with commerce, analyses six years of literature, and builds an accurate and comprehensive knowledge framework within this domain. By identifying current gaps, this study contributes to the literature by addressing prior study limitations, enriching the knowledge base, providing crucial research directions for future exploration, and inspiring scholars to efficiently find research topics.

Epilepsy and depression have complicated bidirectional relationships. Our study aimed to explore the field of epilepsy comorbid with depression in a bibliometric perspective from 2014-2023.

To improve our understanding of epilepsy and depression by evaluating the relationship between epilepsy and depression, bibliometric analyses were performed.

Epilepsy and depression-related publications from the last decade were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. We conducted bibliometric and visual analysis using VOSviewer and CiteSpace, examining authorships, countries, institutions, journals of publication, co-citations of references, connections between keywords, clusters of keywords, and keywords with citation bursts.

Over the past ten years, we collected 1045 research papers focusing on the field of epilepsy and comorbid depression. Publications on epilepsy and depression have shown a general upward trend over time, though with some fluctuations. The United States, with 287 articles, and the University of Melbourne, contributing 34 articles, were the top countries and institutions, respectively. In addition, in the field of epilepsy and depression, Professor Lee, who has published 30 articles, was the most contributing author. The hot topics pay attention to the quality of life in patients with epilepsy and depression.

We reported that quality of life and stigma in patients with epilepsy comorbid with depression are possible future hot topics and directions in the field of epilepsy and depression research.

Since abnormal aerobic glycolysis was first identified in cancer cells, many studies have focused on its mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to analyze the global research status of the Warburg effect in cancer using bibliometrics.

Articles published from 01 January 2013 to 31 December 2022 (n=2,067) were retrieved from the Web of Science core collection database and analyzed using VOSviewer and CiteSpace software.

Over the past decade, there was an overall increase in the number of annual publications. China was the most productive country with 790 articles, while the United States received the most citations, with 25,657 citations in total. Oncotarget was the most productive and most cited journal, with 99 articles and 4,191 citations, respectively. International cooperation was common, with the USA cooperating most with other countries. Lactate metabolism, citrate production, and non-coding RNAs related to the Warburg effect have received increasing attention in cancer research. These areas may become future research trends.

The study findings help summarize the research status and hotspots of the Warburg effect cancer, and will inform subsequent research.
