Abstract

Existing therapy of Neuro-degenerative Diseases (NDDs) is limited, hence acupuncture is needed. The aim of this research is to determine development trends and hotspots, and to predict potential research directions in this field by bibliometric analysis. By using the Scopus's electronic database, “Search document” within title article, abstract, and key functions, basic publication and citation information was collected. The timeframe was not set. The language was English. Complete bibliographic data were exported to the bibliometric software applications VOSviewer. To demonstrate the recurrent keywords and terms included in the titles and abstracts, visualization maps were created. A total of 2155 English articles on acupuncture and NDDs published until 2023 were obtained. From 1995 to 2015, annual publications showed a steady growing trend, and then grow up, especially in 2015–2022. China, Medicine United State, and Park HJ are the most prolific country, journal, and author, respectively. Network acupuncture and Parkinson's disease are the focal areas of current research. The primary areas of investigation in network acupuncture within the context of NDDs encompass the relationship between network acupuncture and Parkinson's disease. Recently, there has been significant study interest in the areas of network acupuncture and Parkinson's disease.
