Trends in osteochondral lesions of talus in twenty years and most cited twenty-five articles: a web-based bibliometric analysis

Öz

Purpose: This study analyzes published research on osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT) to identify surgical trends and highlight key findings. The focus is evaluating publication types, themes, and citation impact from 2003 to 2023. Material and methods: To identify surgical trends and research focus, this study analyzed 553 publications from the Thomson Reuters Web of Knowledge database on OLT, indexed between 2003 and 2023. These publications were categorized by themes such as general topics, surgical strategies, autograft and allograft techniques, microfracture, pediatrics, sports, stem cell therapies, cartilage/chondrocyte implantation, AMIC, outcomes, complications, radiology, grafts, and scaffolds. The study also identified the top 25 cited articles over the period. Results: The analysis revealed that 427 were original articles, and 56 were reviews. General topics (94 articles) and microfracture (73) were the most frequently covered themes. Findings indicate a significant increase in publications over the past five years, with microfracture and OATS being prevalent topics. The number of publications peaked in 2021, with the Hospital for Special Surgery contributing the most. Most articles were published in "Foot and Ankle International" and the "American Journal of Sports Medicine." The USA led in the number of publications, followed by South Korea. The most cited article was "Treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus: a systematic review" by Zengerink Maartje et al., with 370 citations. Conclusion: The study highlights a growing interest in OLT, particularly among orthopedic surgeons, with increased publications over recent years. There is a preference for autograft techniques, and AMIC has emerged as a promising treatment. This study highlights evolving trends in OLT management, emphasizing the need for continued research to optimize patient outcomes.

Talusun osteokondral lezyonlarında son yirmi yıllık eğilimler ve en çok atıf alan 25 makale: web tabanlı bibliyometrik bir analiz

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışma, talusun osteokondral lezyonları (TOL) üzerine yayımlanmış araştırmaları analiz ederek cerrahi eğilimleri belirlemeyi ve önemli bulguları vurgulamayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmanın odak noktası, 2003-2023 yılları arasında yayın türlerini, temalarını ve atıf etkilerini değerlendirmektir. Gereç ve yöntem: Bu çalışma kapsamında, 2003-2023 yılları arasında Thomson Reuters Web of Knowledge veri tabanından indekslenmiş olan talusun osteokondral lezyonları ile ilgili 553 yayın analiz edilmiştir. Bu yayınlar genel konular, cerrahi stratejiler, otogreft ve allogreft teknikleri, mikrofraktür, pediatri, spor, kök hücre tedavileri, kıkırdak/kondrosit implantasyonu, AMIC tekniği, sonuçlar, komplikasyonlar, radyoloji, greftler ve iskele sistemleri gibi temalara göre kategorize edilmiştir. Ayrıca belirtilen dönemde en fazla atıf alan 25 makale belirlenmiştir. Bulgular: Yapılan analizde, 427 yayının orijinal makale, 56 yayının ise derleme olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Genel konular (94 makale) ve mikrofraktür (73 makale) en sık işlenen temalardır. Bulgular son beş yılda yayın sayısında önemli bir artış olduğunu ve mikrofraktür ile OATS tekniklerinin sıkça ele alınan konular olduğunu göstermektedir. Yayın sayısı 2021 yılında zirve yapmış olup, Hospital for Special Surgery en çok katkı sağlayan kurum olarak öne çıkmıştır. Makalelerin çoğu "Foot and Ankle International" ve "American Journal of Sports Medicine" dergilerinde yayımlanmıştır. Ülke bazında en fazla yayın Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nden yapılırken, Güney Kore ikinci sırada yer almıştır. En çok atıf alan makale, 370 atıfla Zengerink Maartje ve arkadaşları tarafından yazılan "Treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus: a systematic review" başlıklı makaledir. Sonuç: Bu çalışma, TOL konusundaki ilginin özellikle ortopedi cerrahları arasında giderek arttığını ve son yıllarda yayın sayısının yükseldiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Otogreft tekniklerinin tercih edildiği, AMIC tekniğinin ise umut verici bir tedavi yöntemi olarak öne çıktığı görülmektedir. Çalışma, TOL tedavisindeki gelişen eğilimleri vurgulayarak hasta sonuçlarını optimize etmek adına sürekli araştırmaya ihtiyaç duyulduğunu belirtmektedir.
