Abstract:

Despite numerous studies investigating plaque psoriasis, there exists a paucity of literature regarding scientometric analysis. This document presents a scientific analysis and historical overview of plaque psoriasis research. This study employs the prior methodology to analyze plaque psoriasis research from 2000 to 2025. It identifies hotspots, patterns of plaque psoriasis, and keyword trends. A scholarometric analysis identified the primary research domains of plaque psoriasis: field distribution, knowledge structure, subject evolution, and topic emergence. The induction factor, comorbidity, etiology, therapy, and animal models illustrate the incidence, progression, and treatment of depression. A scientometric analysis identified 13,646 documents on plaque psoriasis over a span of 25 years. These results establish a robust basis for subsequent research. We identified 13,646 articles on plaque psoriasis. Multiple journals addressed plaque psoriasis, including the British Journal of Dermatology, the American Academy Journal, and the European Academy Journal. Manchester University was the most productive, with 399 publications. Research on psoriasis was most abundant in the United States, yielding 4,141 publications across dermatology, pharmacology, rheumatology, and health care. Comorbidities, interleukin-23, drug survival, nail and plaque psoriasis, myocardial infarction, weight loss, diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, cyclosporine, depression, IL-17, IL-23, adherence, and arthritis seem to be interconnected.
The citation analysis delineated the foremost researchers, institutions, and publications in plaque psoriasis, offering a thorough overview. The increase in publications indicates that this topic has attracted academic interest. The results underscore the significance of collaboration, interdisciplinary approaches, and resource allocation in marginalized sectors for researchers, funding organizations, and governmental entities. This study advocates for the utilization of traditional Chinese medicine and herbal remedies in the treatment of plaque psoriasis, citing their reduced side effects.

The abstract offers a comprehensive overview of the scientometric trends in plaque psoriasis research from 2000 to 2025, highlighting both the scope and depth of the study. It effectively identifies research hotspots, key contributors, and thematic patterns. The abstract would also benefit from a clearer articulation of the methods used for the scientometric analysis. The recommendation of traditional Chinese medicine is valuable, a brief rationale or supporting data point could strengthen its placement in the abstract. Overall, the study appears timely and relevant, offering meaningful insights into research trends in plaque psoriasis.

The abstract provides a well-structured snapshot of plaque psoriasis research over the past 25 years, emphasizing key areas such as comorbidities, therapeutic approaches, and influential institutions. The inclusion of emerging biological targets like IL-17 and IL-23, as well as the advocacy for traditional Chinese medicine, adds relevance to current treatment discussions. While the analysis is insightful, briefly outlining the scientometric tools or databases used would enhance transparency.
