BACKGROUND: With the continuous improvement and progress of the magnetically controlled growing rod technology in the field of the treatment of spinal deformities, numerous studies have been put into this field, but the main research status, hot spots, and development trends are not clear enough. OBJECTIVE: Based on bibliometrics, this paper discusses the quality and quantity of articles in the field of using magnetically controlled growing rods to treat spinal deformities from different countries, aiming to clarify the global development trend of magnetically controlled growing rods and evaluate the research productivity, research trends, and research hotspots in the world. METHODS: The articles published from 1998 to 2023 were retrieved mainly based on the Web of Science database. CiteSpace 5.8 and VOSviewer 1.6.19 software were used to analyze the data and generate a visual knowledge map. The following parameters were evaluated for all studies: the total number of published papers, centrality, h index, the contribution of countries, authors, and journals, and the trend and hot spots were explored through the analysis of co-citation, highly cited literature, and literature keyword explosion. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Finally, 138 articles were included. From 2009 to 2020, the number of published articles in this field gradually increased. The United States has the largest number of articles (53, 37.32%), and the United States has the highest h index and centrality of articles. (2) The results of keyword analysis showed that: the top ten keywords, such as early-onset scoliosis, surgery, complications, and so on, objectively and truly reflected the current situation and hot spots of magnetically controlled growing rod in the field of spinal deformity treatment. In recent years, the research focus in this field is the treatment failure caused by risk factors such as the pull-out of the magnetically controlled growing rod, implantation failure, and rod fracture, the accurate use of the corresponding medical classification, the monitoring and treatment of complications such as quality of life and cerebral palsy. (3) The co-citation results showed that: combined with the innovative and effective research of the magnetically controlled growing rod technology, the classification application of spinal deformity and the monitoring and treatment of related complications may be the research trend in this field. (4) Many highly cited articles further emphasized the therapeutic effect of magnetically controlled growing rod technology, providing an effective new idea and technical support for the field of spinal deformity correction. (5) The results of literature keyword explosion analysis demonstrate that the risk factors, medical classification, quality of life, and cerebral palsy of the application of magnetically controlled growing rods may become the research frontier in this field. (6) It can be seen that the application of magnetically controlled growing rod technology in the classification of spinal deformities and the in-depth study of related complications are the development trend in this field, but to further understand the effectiveness and safety of magnetically controlled growing rod technology in the treatment of spinal deformities, we still need long-term follow-up evidence. The overall research level of this field has steadily improved in recent years, but there are also problems such as the small number of high-quality articles and the unbalanced development of research in various regions.

Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases in childhood, and its pathogenesis is not yet clear. In recent years, the imbalance of intestinal flora has attracted more and more attention to the occurrence and development of childhood asthma. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the lung and the large intestine are interrelated, and the occurrence of childhood asthma is closely related to the dysfunction of the lung and the large intestine, while Western medicine believes that the occurrence of childhood asthma is related to various factors. Among them, pulmonary immune imbalance caused by intestinal flora disorder is one of the important causes of its occurrence. This paper discussed the occurrence of childhood asthma by focusing on pulmonary and intestinal pathophysiology, so as to provide new targets or therapeutic ideas for the prevention and treatment of childhood asthma.

BACKGROUND: Eye tracking has attracted the attention of Chinese scholars because it can objectively, timely and non-invasively reflect the eye movement and attention characteristics of autistic patients, which makes up for the lack of objectivity of traditional measurement methods. However, there is yet no visualization analysis of literature on eye tracking in autistic patients. OBJECTIVE: To perform the visualization analysis of relevant Chinese and English literature on eye tracking in autism and to understand the research overview, hot spots and trends in this field. METHODS: Literature related to eye tracking in autistic patients were searched in Web of Science Core Collection database and CNKI database from their inception to November 5, 2021. Bibliometrics and visualization analysis of key node information in the literature was conducted using CiteSpace software (R5.8.R1). The main observation indexes were node centrality, co-occurrence frequency or co-citation frequency, and burst time. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 1 458 papers were included in the Web of Science core Collection database, the first of which was published in 1994, and 210 papers were included in the CNKI database, the first of which was published in 2007. The international author with the most publications is JOHNSON MH who is from the Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development, Birkbeck, University of London, and the institution with the most publications is University College London. In China, Chen Shunsen who is from the Institute of Applied Psychology of Minnan Normal University has published the most papers, and the institution with the most publications is the Institute of Applied Psychology of Minnan Normal University. There are some differences between domestic and international research hotspots. Domestic researchers mostly focus on the attentional bias behavior pattern of children with autism towards external social cues, and their results mainly show that children with autism have attentional bias of negative emotional cues and eye attention bias. International researchers not only focus on the visual patterns of processing social cues in children and infants with autism, but also use brain imaging technology to study the underlying neural mechanisms of abnormal visual behavior patterns. The main research results are that the abnormal attention pattern of autism patients is mainly related to the activation of amygdala, occipito-temporal lobe and fusiform gyrus. Further research on biomarkers related to autism is required to provide objective indicators for early diagnosis and intervention of autistic patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper reviewed the applications and development of multimodal MRI in the NE neuroimaging study on pathological mechanisms and abnormal cognitive function. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BACKGROUND: Foreign scholars have developed some scientific and applicable assessment tools for children’s movement development. However, because the assessment tools will be affected by the regional, cultural and ethnic norm data, these foreign assessment tools cannot be directly used in China. Therefore, it is of great significance to understand the development of international assessment tools for children’s movement development in order to help researchers in related fields to develop scientific assessment tools for children’s movement development assessment in China. OBJECTIVE: By using the methods of literature analysis, visual analysis and mathematical statistics, to analyze the discipline characteristics, dynamic evolution and frontier hot spots of the international children’s movement development assessment research in the past 30 years, in order to comprehensively understand the research overview of the international children’s movement development assessment from a macro perspective. METHODS: The Web of Science Core Collection database from 1990 to 2020 was searched using search topics #1 “elementary or pupil or primary school or middle school or secondary school or children or preschool or Kindergarten or Pediatrics”, #2 “motor skills or gross motor or fine motor or coordination or motor developmental delay or developmental coordination disorder or motor difficulty or motor development defect or motor development or motor proficiency or motor competencies”, #3 “questionnaire or tools or assessment or scale or test”, and #4 (#1 and #2 and #3). Finally, 11 680 literatures were selected as the research data of this paper and Citespace5.5R2 software was used for literature visualization analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The research on the evaluation of children’s movement development is characterized by interdisciplinary subjects such as pediatrics, neuroscience and neurology, psychology, neuroscience, education and education research, sports science, etc. The evolution of international assessment of children's movement development can be divided into basic development stage, rapid development stage and high-speed development stage. The development of assessment tools in different stages always revolves around the impact of movement development on different children’s cognition, personality, social adaptation and physical health. The cutting-edge trend of international assessment of children’s movement development mainly focuses on movement development and interventions in premature infants, movement development in children with muscular dystrophy or cerebral palsy, and coordination in autism children, the relationship between children’s movement development and children’s physical health, as well as the prediction of children’s physical activity based on children’s movement development.

Emergence Delirium (ED) is a complex cognitive disorder and mental restlessness. It occurs most frequently in preschool children after anesthesia. Its etiology is not very clear at present. The term ED is often used interchangeably with Emergence Agitation (EA) and Postanesthetic Excitement (PE). It is maybe related to age, volatile anesthetics, perioperative anxiety and pain. ED in children under 2 years of age can be accurately diagnosed with the PAED scale, but the scale also has its limitations. ED is prevented mainly from the preoperative anxiety, postoperative analgesia and intraoperative propofol, dexemedetomidine. Propofol, dexmedetomidine and magnesium sulfate could be applied in recovery room. This paper summarizes the latest progress of ED and provides a good basis to diagnosis, treatment, prevention.
