Hypothesis
What are the research hotspots and trends regarding the role of NF-κB in cognitive impairment?
Conclusion
The study indicates that NF-κB's role in cognitive impairment is a growing research hotspot, with a focus on neuroinflammation and potential therapeutic targets.
Supporting Evidence
- Publications on NF-κB in cognitive impairment began in 2010 and increased sharply in 2018.
- China has published the most studies in this field, indicating a strong research potential.
- Neuroinflammation and therapeutic targets are identified as key areas for future research.
Takeaway
This study looked at many articles about how a specific protein called NF-κB affects brain problems like memory loss. It found that researchers are very interested in this topic and think it could help us understand and treat these issues better.
Methodology
A bibliometric analysis was conducted using data from the Science Citation Index-Expanded of the Web of Science Core Collection, analyzing articles published from 2008 to 2023.
Limitations
The study may have overlooked important literature from other databases and only included English publications.
