The number of diabetes mellitus (DM) cases has increased, and Tinospora crispa (L.) Hook. f. & Thomson is recognized for treating DM. Despite publications on T. crispa as an antidiabetic, there were no bibliometric reports on this topic. Thus, this study aimed to conduct bibliometric studies of existing articles on the preclinical trials of T. crispa in DM management. We used Scopus to obtain a bibliographic database of primary research related to the topic. There were 24 selected publications between 1989 and 2019. We analyzed data with VOSviewer 1.6.16. Malaysia, John Radcliffe Hospital (United Kingdom), Journal of Ethnopharmacology, Hamdan Noor, and Stephen J.H. Ashcroft (John Radcliffe Hospital, United Kingdom) were the most impactful country, institution, source, and author, respectively. This plant is promising for treating DM, meanwhile, there were case studies of harmful effects on the gastrointestinal tract and liver. The majority and diverse fields of this topic were phytochemistry and pharmacology. Our findings strengthen research collaboration and identify research gaps required for herbal medicine applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
