Abstract
Objective To analyze the research hotspots and development trends of contamination prevention and control in dental unit waterlines at home and abroad by bibliometric methods.Methods The CNKI and Web of Science data-base core collection were searched for research literature related to contamination prevention and control in dental unit waterlines published from January 2004 to July 2024.CiteSpace 6.3.R1 software was used to visualize the included litera-ture by country,institution,author,co-cited literature,co-cited journal and keywords.Results Finally 246 Chinese ar-ticles and 202 English articles,totaling 448 articles,were included.The number of Chinese and English articles pub-lished showed a fluctuating growth trend as a whole,with the number of Chinese articles published reaching the peak in 2016 and the number of English articles published reaching the peak in 2021.The Chinese articles involved 95 institu-tions and 139 authors,and the institutions with more arti-cles were Tianjin Center for Disease Control and Preven-tion(9 articles)and National Institute of Environmental Health,China CDC(5 articles).The English articles in-volved 43 countries,91 institutions,and 121 authors,and the countries with more articles were Italy(31 articles),the United States(28 articles),and China(20 articles).The institutions with more articles were the Medical University of Lu-blin(17 articles)and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique(12 articles).Journal of the American Dental Asso-ciation was the journal with the most co-citations(158 times).The top three high-frequency keywords in Chinese litera-ture were disinfection,bacterial contamination,and contamination,while the top three high-frequency keywords in Eng-lish literature were contamination,microbial contamination,and biofilms.In keyword clustering,both Chinese and Eng-lish literatures involved three aspects:environment,microbial contamination,and infection control and monitoring.The keyword with the strongest burstness in Chinese literature was bacterial contamination,and the latest bursting keywords were biofilms,hydrogen peroxide,and disinfection effect;the keyword with the strongest burstness in English literature was infection,and the latest bursting keywords were infection control,sodium hypochlorite,etc.Conclusion The re-search hotness on the contamination prevention and control in dental unit waterlines is increasing,and the research hot-spots mainly focus on the control of biofilms,and gradually deepen and refine to the exploration of the structure and diver-sity of biofilms,as well as physical and chemical means of infection control.关键词
