Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Background: The gut-brain axis (GBA) represents a complex, bidirectional communication network that connects the central nervous system (CNS) and the gastrointestinal system. Our study aimed to explore the correlation between the intestinal microbiota and demyelinating diseases from a bibliometric perspective, focusing on research since 2014. Methods: A comprehensive search was carried out on the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) to locate studies on the intestinal microbiota and demyelinating diseases, with a focus on publications from 1 January 2014 to 29 March 2024. We visualized and analyzed the data using VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and Charticulator. Results: We gathered 429 scholarly articles on the intestinal microbiota and demyelinating disorders published in the past 10 years. Research concerning the intestinal microbiota and demyelinating diseases has demonstrated a consistent increase in frequency over time. The USA has the highest number of publications, while Canada has the highest average number of citations, reaching as high as 3,429, which is greater than that of the USA. Moreover, the journal with the highest number of publications was Frontiers in Immunology, with 33 publications and 1,494 citations. The majority of the scholars focused on "multiple sclerosis" and "gut microbiota," which are the primary keywords in the field of the intestinal microbiota and demyelinating diseases. Conclusion: This study conducted a comprehensive analysis of existing research investigating the correlation between the intestinal microbiota and demyelinating diseases. Using advanced bibliometric tools such as VOSviewer and CiteSpace, this study analyzed the intricate relationship between the intestinal microbiota and the pathogenesis of demyelinating conditions. In addition, the study used literature statistical analysis to identify research hotspots and future directions in the field.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)

Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
