Cancer Patient Thromboprophylaxis Meta-Analysis and Bibliometric Review, 2000-2025

A bibliometric analysis of 680 publications from 52 countries on central venous catheter thrombosis prevention in cancer patients, covering research from 2000 to 2025. The dataset also includes a Bayesian network meta-analysis of 19 clinical studies comparing anticoagulation strategies, authored by Mingyu Meng and last updated in April 2026. The file is a 3.5 MB DOCX document containing the full research paper.

Use Cases

• Conducting trend analysis in medical literature based on the bibliometric review of 680 publications.
• Comparing the efficacy of anticoagulation drugs like apixaban, VKA, rivaroxaban, and LMWH based on the network meta-analysis results.
• Evaluating the safety profiles of thromboprophylaxis strategies based on reported bleeding risk and adverse event data.
• Visualizing research collaboration and focus shifts over time using the described VOSviewer and CiteSpace outputs.

Strengths

• Includes a substantial bibliometric corpus of 680 publications from 52 countries.
• Network meta-analysis is based on 19 included clinical studies, providing comparative statistical results.
• Clear temporal scope for the bibliometric analysis, covering publications from 2000 to 2025.
• Research is registered with a PROSPERO identifier (CRD420251218825), indicating a systematic review protocol.

Limitations

• The dataset is a single DOCX file; column-level data and sample data are unavailable for direct analysis.
• Row count for the underlying bibliometric or clinical data is unknown, limiting suitability assessment.
• The 3.5 MB file size suggests the dataset is small and may not contain raw, structured data tables.
