[PMID: 38054111 PMCID: PMC10695024 DOI: 10.2147/jpr.s437521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective Thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) is a segmental nonatherosclerotic inflammatory vascular disease characterized by recurrent progressive inflammatory reactions and thrombosis in the small and medium-sized arteries and veins of the extremities. However, there are few bibliometric studies on TAO. Therefore, this study was employed to generalize the research status, hotspots and development trends of TAO-related research. Methods The data from 1999 to 2022 were collected from the Web of Science core collection database, and analyzed through bibliometrics software. VOSviewer was utilized to carry out academic collaboration between different countries/regions, institutions, and authors, visualization map of co-cited authors, journals, reference, and co-occurring keywords. CiteSpace was used to analyze the dual-map of journals, keyword bursts, and timeline of keywords. Bar and pie charts in this study were statistically analyzed and graphed through Microsoft Excel 2021. Scimago Graphica was applied to map the academic collaboration between different countries/regions. Results A total of 553 literatures were involved in this study. Japan at the leading global position not only in the number of publications, but also total citations, average citations and H-index. Institution with the major contribution to TAO research is Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, and Nagoya University. Annals of Vascular Surgery, Angiology, Journal of Vascular Surgery are the main publication channel for articles related to TAO. Fazeli, B., Iwai, T., and Kihara, Y. are major contributors in this field. The studies on TAO keywords could be grouped into four clusters: Etiology, Mechanism, Cell therapy and Clinical therapy. Conclusion Although the number of TAO publications has fluctuated over the past 20 years, it has generally shown a steady upward trend. Etiology and treatment research on TAO and some keywords such as trail, therapy, outcome, management, stem cells, angioplasty, and activation will become a hot spot in the future.

Ou S, Wu X, Yang Y, Xia C, Zhang W, Qu Y, Li J, Chen B, Zhu L, Xu C, Qi Y. Tibial cortex transverse transport potentiates diabetic wound healing via activation of SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling. PeerJ 2023; 11:e15894. [PMID: 37727693 PMCID: PMC10506586 DOI: 10.7717/peerj.15894] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The current treatments for diabetic foot ulcers have disadvantages of slow action and numerous complications. Tibial cortex transverse transport (TTT) surgery is an extension of the Ilizarov technique used to treat diabetic foot ulcers, and can shorten the repair time of diabetic foot ulcers. This study assessed the TTT technique for its effectiveness in healing diabetic foot ulcer skin lesions and its related molecular mechanisms. Methods Diabetic rat models were established by injecting healthy Sprague-Dawley rats with streptozotocin (STZ). The effects of TTT surgery on the model rats were assessed by recording changes in body weight, analyzing skin wound pictures, and performing H&E staining to assess the recovery of wounded skin. The numbers of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in peripheral blood were analyzed by flow cytometry, and levels of CXCR4 and SDF-1 expression were qualitatively analyzed by immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, qRT-PCR, and western blotting. Results Both the histological results and foot wound pictures indicated that TTT promoted diabetic wound healing. Flow cytometry results showed that TTT increased the numbers of EPCs in peripheral blood as determined by CD34 and CD133 expression. In addition, activation of the SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling pathway and an accumulation of EPCs were observed in skin ulcers sites after TTT surgery. Finally, the levels of SDF-1 and CXCR4 mRNA and protein expression in the TTT group were higher than those in a blank or fixator group. Conclusion TTT promoted skin wound healing in diabetic foot ulcers possibly by activating the SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling pathway.
