基于文献计量学分析中医外治法防控儿童青少年近视的研究现状与热点

Analysis of Research Status and Hotspot of External Therapies of Traditional Chinese Medicine for the Prevention and Control of Myopia in Children and Adolescents Based on Bibliometrics

摘要:

目的：分析中医外治法防控儿童青少年近视的相关文献，梳理其研究现状、热点内容及前沿。方法：检索中国知网（CNKI）、维普（VIP） 和万方（WanFang） 数据库1995年1月1日—2025年3月31日收录的中医外治法防控儿童青少年近视的相关文献，运用CiteSpace 6.3.R1软件对作者、机构、关键词进行可视化图谱分析。结果：共纳入463篇研究文献，年发文量呈波动上升趋势。尚未形成稳定核心作者群，合作网络较分散。针刺、耳穴、推拿疗法等为核心防控手段。研究热点主题聚焦临床疗效、选穴规律、病机及疗法作用机制研究。“揿针”“耳穴压丸”“数据挖掘”等关键词突现，研究正向数字化与循证化发展。结论：中医外治法在近视防控中具备独特优势，但仍缺乏高质量循证研究，未来应加强高质量随机对照试验与机理机制探索，以提升研究的规范化与实证水平。

Abstract:

Abstract：Objective：To analyze the literature on external therapies of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） for the prevention and control of myopia in children and adolescents，and to delineate the research status，hotspots，and frontiers. Methods：Literature on external TCM therapies for myopia prevention and control in children and adolescents was retrieved from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， China Science and Technology Journal Database （VIP）， and Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform （Wanfang） databases， covering the period from January 1，1995 to March 31，2025. CiteSpace 6.3.R1 software was used to visualize and analyze authors，institutions， and keywords. Results：A total of 463 research articles were included，and the annual publication volume showed a fluctuating upward trend. A stable core group of authors has not yet formed，and the collaboration network is relatively dispersed. Acupuncture， auricular point therapy， and tuina acting as the primary preventive and therapeutic techniques. Research hotspots focus on clinical efficacy，acupoint selection rules，pathogenesis，and mechanisms of action. Keywords such as "thumbtack needling，" "auricular point seed-pressing，" and "data mining" have emerged prominently，indicating a shift in research towards digitalization and evidence-based practices. Conclusion：External TCM therapies have unique advantages in myopia prevention and control； however， high-quality evidence-based research remains insufficient. Future efforts should concentrate on strengthening high-quality randomized controlled trials and investigating mechanistic studies to enhance research standardization and evidence-based practice.
