[PMID: 37920523 PMCID: PMC10618776 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e21300] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2023] [Revised: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Infantile hemangioma (IH) has received global attention, resulting in a significant volume of literature. However, there is a lack of bibliometric analyses specifically focusing on IH publications. This study aims to fill this gap by conducting a comprehensive analysis of IH publications, investigating their characteristics, contribution distribution, and developmental trends. By enhancing our understanding of IH and identifying potential research topics and collaborators, this study will contribute to the advancement of the field. Methods A total of 4333 articles and reviews on IH were collected from the Web of Science (WoS) database, spanning the years 2000-2022. The study encompassed a comprehensive analysis of IH publications, evaluating their quantity and quality. Additionally, we profiled publishing groups based on country, institution, author publication records, and collaboration networks. Lastly, we identified and summarized the prominent research topics. Results Annual publications on IH have increased over the past 20 years. The United States has the highest number of publications and the highest total number of citations. Pediatric Dermatology was the most influential journal in the IH field. The citation analysis indicated that the articles published by Léauté-Labrèze in 2008 had the highest number of citations. The articles published by North PE in 2000 and Boye E in 2001 laid a certain research foundation for this field. Concerning institutions, most of the cooperative relationships were established in the same country/region. The United States has the largest number of scientific research institutions and IH researchers, leading most of the cross-country collaboration. The University of California, San Francisco, Medical College of Wisconsin, Harvard University, and Shanghai Jiaotong University were the research centers that published the most IH-related research. Frieden IJ, Mulliken JB, and Drolet BA were the top three most influential authors. Frieden IJ, Garzon MC, and Mulliken JB were the top three authors with the most cited frequency. In addition, keywords and keyword co-occurrence networks prompted that the pathological mechanism of IH, clinical analysis, and other vascular anomalies are research hotspots. Analysis of trending topics suggests that research on IH has evolved from treatment-focused studies towards investigations of other vascular diseases and a series of clinical case studies. Currently, clinical case studies receive the most attention in the field. Conclusions This comprehensive bibliometric study provides a thorough analysis of post-2000 publications in the field of IH, offering insights into current research trends for the first time. The findings suggest that future investigations will continue to prioritize understanding IH mechanisms, treatment approaches, and treatment evaluation. Furthermore, the exploration of other vascular diseases and the inclusion of clinical case studies are expected to contribute to advancements in IH clinical practice. By identifying potential collaborators, partner institutions, and new research avenues, this study offers valuable guidance for future in-depth research on IH.

Hong Z, Kuang J, Guo Y, Zhou G, Zhu Z, Jiang L. Effects of follicle-stimulating hormone on the proliferation and apoptosis of infantile hemangioma stem cells. Biochem Biophys Rep 2023; 35:101551. [PMID: 37823006 PMCID: PMC10562740 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2023.101551] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human hemangioma stem cells, it will provide a basis for studying the mechanism of FSH in treating hemangioma. Methods Hemangioma specimens were collected from the Longgang District Maternity & Child Healthcare Hospital of Shenzhen City. Hemangioma stem cells were treated with different concentrations of FSH. Cell viability was detected by CCK8 method and cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. Results Hemangioma stem cells (HemSCs) were extracted from fresh tissue of infantile hemangioma by the CD133 immunomagnetic bead method. Under the influence of FSH at different concentrations (0, 100, 1000 IU/L), the cell viability of hemangioma stem cells increased significantly in a concentration-dependent manner (P < 0.05). At the same time, the apoptosis of hemangioma stem cells decreased with increasing concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone (P < 0.05). Specifically, 1000 IU/L FSH significantly promoted the proliferation of hemangioma stem cells and inhibited their apoptosis. Conclusion High concentration of follicle-stimulating hormone can maintain the growth of hemangioma by promoting the proliferation and inhibiting the apoptosis of hemangioma stem cells.

[PMID: 35140097 PMCID: PMC8830216 DOI: 10.1136/bcr-2021-247689] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 01/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Two unrelated neonates were born with a large purplish congenital mass of the thigh and forearm. Both showed signs of heart dysfunction, and one of them had anaemia and thrombocytopenia. The imaging assessment of the lesions showed well-defined subcutaneous solid masses with an exuberant vascular component. Both were kept under surveillance and maintenance therapy. A progressive dimensional reduction of the lesions supported the diagnosis of rapidly involuting congenital haemangioma (RICH). RICH is a rare vascular tumour that presents as a congenital purplish bulky mass. The diagnosis depends on the clinical evaluation of the lesion and the imaging characterisation of its solid components and vascular network. RICH may be complicated by high-output heart failure, anaemia and thrombocytopenia. Despite its exuberant presentation, it undergoes involution in the first year of life; therefore, early invasive therapies should be avoided. It is essential to detect any dimensional increase, suggesting more aggressive diagnoses, such as kaposiform haemangioendothelioma.
