摘要:

药师主导的干预措施对老年患者有显著获益, 且已有大量相关研究发表。本文基于文献计量学方法分析该领域的相关研究, 从而了解相关研究的现状和热点前沿。检索在Web of Science Core Collection数据库发表的相关研究, 时间为建库至2022年9月8日, 然后利用VOSviewer和CiteSpace软件进行文献计量学分析。共纳入相关文献6084篇, 其中 "Article" 5496篇(90.34%), 年度发文量呈上升趋势。相关研究在120个国家/地区开展, 其中美国在该领域的贡献最大, 发文量最多(n = 2637); 悉尼大学发表的论文最多(n = 155); 发文量最多的是悉尼大学的学者Timothy F Chen (n = 35), 共被引频次最多的是费城科学大学的学者Joseph T Hanlon; Journal of Managed Care & Specialty PharmacyJournal of the American Geriatrics Society分别在最高产期刊(n = 251)和共被引期刊(n = 5293)中排名第一。该领域的热点话题包括新标准的制定、现有标准的更新、老年人潜在不适当用药标准的使用、对老年人不适当多重用药的关注, 以及对药师主导的干预措施在老年人群中积极作用的评估。这项文献计量学分析提供了药师主导的老年患者干预措施的全面概述, 有助于了解过去30年该领域的发展。

Abstract:

Pharmacist-led interventions have demonstrated significant benefits for older adults, with a plethora of studies dedicated to this subject. A bibliometric study was conducted to assess the current state of research and summarize key themes in the domain of pharmacist-led interventions for older adults. The analysis encompassed publications available in the Web of Science Core Collection from its inception until September 8, 2022. To perform the bibliometric analysis, VOSviewer and CiteSpace software were employed. The initial query yielded a substantial 6 084 relevant documents spanning the period from 1995 to September 8, 2022. Of these, 5496 (constituting 90.34%) were categorized as "Article". Notably, the yearly output of publications displayed an upward trajectory. This body of work emanated from 120 countries and regions, with the United States being the foremost contributor, accounting for the majority of publications (n = 2637). The University of Sydney in Australia emerged as the institution with the highest number of publications (n = 155). Timothy F Chen, affiliated with the University of Sydney, was the most prolific author, boasting 35 publications. Joseph T Hanlon, a scholar affiliated with the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia, emerged as the most frequently co-cited author. When considering journal productivity, The Journal of Managed Care & Specialty Pharmacy stood out as the most prolific journal (n = 251). Conversely, the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society garnered the highest number of co-citations (n = 5293). The predominant research themes encompassed the development of new criteria, updates to existing criteria, the utilization of criteria for identifying potentially inappropriate medications in older populations, concerns surrounding inappropriate polypharmacy in this demographic, and the evaluation of the positive impact of pharmacist-led interventions for older adults. In conclusion, this comprehensive bibliometric analysis offers a panoramic view of pharmacist-led interventions for older adults, providing valuable insights into the field’s evolution over the past three decades.
