Abstract
Aims: This bibliometric study aimed to examine the hotspots and frontiers of kinesiophobia research in orthopedics and to assess the overall scientific output of the field.
Methods: The Web of Science Core Collection was mined for articles on kinesiophobia that were published between 1970 and September 2023. Using common bibliometric indicators, Vosviewer was used to examine the number of publications, countries, institutions, journals, authors, cited references, and keywords.
Results: The results of a bibliometric analysis focused on the body of knowledge on kinesiophobia. The study analyzed 2,035 articles from 75 different countries and identified important trends and groundbreaking research. In particular, there has been a steady increase in recent years, with publications increasing significantly between 2001 and 2012. The highest contribution came from the United States and the most cited articles addressed clinical recommendations for low back pain. Both the Florida State University System and the University of Florida made significant contributions. With a total of 51,443 citations, this study provides a comprehensive overview to help guide future research in orthopaedics and related fields.
Conclusion: The results of this bibliometric study give an overview of the state and trends in clinical research on kinesiophobia and may be used by researchers to pinpoint hot themes and consider fresh lines of inquiry.
