Extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass is a procedure in which a blood vessel outside the skull is connected to one inside the skull to improve cerebral blood flow. Certain aneurysms cannot be treated through standard clipping, and EC-IC bypass may be recommended in such cases. A vast body of literature exists on the use of EC-IC bypass as a treatment for cerebrovascular disorders. While beneficial to surgeons, these publications may not reach all the intended audience, which encourages the use of bibliometric analyses. Although a fraction of historically meaningful publications may not have been sufficiently valued through citation count, bibliometric analysis is the gold standard for assessing the impact of a publication. ⋯ We retrieved the top 50 most-cited articles on EC-IC bypass surgery and identified the landmark publications to provide a foundational understanding of the procedure as a treatment for complex disorders.

Personalized medicine (PM), as a rapidly growing research area, provides treatments, practices, and interventions being adapted to an individual patient based on his own risk of disease. This study aims to analyze the productivity of countries, institutions, and authors in this field, to determine the existing research trends worldwide, and to forecast future research activity for specific countries. ⋯ Owing to its both interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary nature, PM bestows researchers' numerous sources to benefit and enables them a field that they can be productive of for the future. Therefore, this field is expected to progress and be the lead area in medicine in the upcoming years.

There is still no comprehensive bibliometric study in the literature on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), an important topic in emergency medicine, the number of global studies on which is increasing day by day. In this study, it was aimed to analyze the scientific articles on CPR published between 1980 and 2020 by statistical methods and to evaluate the subject holistically. ⋯ In this comprehensive study, a summary of 14,818 articles was presented. The trending topics in CPR research in recent years are out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, cardio, simulation, in-hospital cardiac arrest, extracorporeal life support, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation, targeted management temperature, and outcome. This article may be a useful resource on CPR global outcomes for clinicians and scientists.

Global research trends in perioperative care for the elderly: a bibliometric and visualized study.
Aged surgical patients are at a relatively higher risk of morbidity and mortality than younger surgical patients. The present study aimed to investigate the trends and research status of perioperative care for the elderly in the anesthesiology field. ⋯ The number of studies on perioperative care for the elderly has increased apparently worldwide. Postoperative cognitive dysfunction and postoperative delirium remain primary research focus areas. Organ function protection appears to be the second most highly researched topic in the perioperative care for the elderly.
