Bibliometric Analysis of Machine Learning Applications in Ischemia Research.

Objective: The objective of this study is to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to elucidate the landscape of machine learning applications in ischemia research.

Methods: The analysis can be divided in three sections: part 1 scrutinizes articles and reviews with "ischemia" in their titles, while part 2 further narrows the focus to publications containing both "ischemia" and "machine learning" in their titles. Additionally, part 3 delves into the examination of the top 50 most cited papers, exploring their thematic focus and co-word dynamics.

Results: The findings reveal a significant increase in publications over the years, with notable trends identified through detailed analysis. The growth in publication counts over time, the leading contributors, institutions, geographical distribution of research output and journals are numerically presented for part 1 and part 2. For the top 50 most cited papers the dynamics of co-words, which offer a nuanced understanding of thematic trends and emerging concepts, are presented. Based on the number of citations the top 10 authors were selected, and later for each, total number of publications, h-index, g-index and m-index are provided. Additionally, figures depicting the co-authorship network among authors, departments, and countries involved in the top 50 cited papers may enrich our comprehension of collaborative networks in ischemia research.

Conclusion: This comprehensive bibliometric analysis provides valuable insights into the evolving landscape of machine learning applications in ischemia research.
