AI Article Synopsis

  • Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is gaining global attention, yet research is predominantly originating from North America and Europe, prompting a bibliometric analysis focused on Asia and Australasia over the past decade.
  • The analysis revealed 163 HS-related articles from the region, with a significant publication spike after 2015, predominantly consisting of case reports, while efforts were made to produce more high-level evidence studies.
  • Major contributors to HS research included China, Japan, and India, with an increasing involvement from Australia, Israel, and Turkey, highlighting the need for greater geographical representation in research to enhance understanding and treatment of the disease.

Article Abstract

Introduction: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), once an orphan disease, has gained increased interest world-wide. The most highly cited works in HS are from North America and Europe despite known phenotypic and epidemiological differences globally. Herein, we perform a bibliometric analysis to characterize HS publication trends in Asia and Australasia (AA) over the last decade.

Methods: PubMed database was searched to identify HS-related articles and were analyzed for senior authorship, country of origin, article topic, and study design.

Results: The search criteria yielded 163 articles from AA. Rapid increase in publications started in 2015 with 75% (123/163) of total articles published in the last half of the decade. Case reports/series were consistently the most published study type yearly and overall (49%, 80/163). Efforts were made to increase high level of evidence publications with both randomized controlled trials from Japan and Turkey including all Asian patients. China, Japan, and India were the leading publishing countries with Australia, Israel, and Turkey increasingly contributing in the last half of the decade.

Conclusions: Advancements in HS research are encouraging with increases in publication numbers and diversity; however, more geographical diversity is needed in order to garner a better understanding of the disease and treatment options.

Transparent Exopolymer Particles (TEP), closely related to the carbon cycle due to their high carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, have become a hot research topic. However, despite the growing interest in this field, there is a lack of comprehensive analysis providing a clear developmental background and quantitative research on the overall trends of TEP studies. To address the gap, this article utilizes VOSviewer and CiteSpace to conduct a bibliometric analysis of TEP research.

In this Prentice Medal Award lecture, I shall recount my career in vision science in the context of three types of inspiration-"being inspired," "personal inspiration," and "inspiring others." My research has derived inspiration from a variety of sources, such as contemporary and historical research doyens in the ophthalmic field and beyond, artists, Greek philosophers, and abstract constructs such as principles and adages. A given moment of inspiration can range from being a profound experience to a subtle realization during a quiet moment of reflection.
