Bibliometric analysis of studies involving patients with lung cancer complicated by pulmonary tuberculosis
The PubMed, Web of Science, Medline, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases were utilized with the search formula "(((TS=(tuberculosis)) OR (TS=(TB))) AND ((TS=(lung cancer)) OR TS=(lung tumor)))" to retrieve and export the full record results. Further search parameters were set to DT=("ARTICLE" OR "REVIEW") and SILOID=("WOS") AND LA=("ENGLISH"), resulting in the inclusion of 2,705 unique publications in this study. Among these, 2,321 publications were categorized as articles, and 384 publications were categorized as reviews. Additionally, CiteSpace 6.2.R2 (64-bit) Basic (citespace.podia.com) was employed to perform citation-based visualization of the data derived from Web of Science.
