Abstract

Bibliometrics analysis is increasingly used for situation analysis in a certain field. We aimed to analyze the immunological aspects of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) from 1995 to the present, such as study countries, institutions, journals, and hotspots. The web of science core collection was used to retrieve the articles related to TCM-Immune from 1995 to 2018, and the statistical analysis of those projects by the Excel, VOS viewer software. A total of 4005 kinds of literature on TCM-Immune were retrieved. It was found that the total number of papers published in recent years had increased rapidly, with China being the country with the largest number of publications, followed by the United States, South Korea, India, and Japan. Top 10 institutions except Kyung-hee University are based in China, and so are the authors of the top three. VOS viewer software divided the keywords into four clusters, the first cluster is immune in vitro, the second cluster is immune in vivo, the third cluster is TCM-Immune resistance, the fourth cluster is the mechanism of immune, the analysis shows that inflammation, oxidative stress, signal pathway, the mechanism of action is new hotspots in the future.
