Abstract

Background and objectives:

Diabetes mellitus is a serious metabolic disease that causes a serious economic burden worldwide. Gut flora is a major component of diabetes research, and the aim of this study was to understand the trends and major components of research related to diabetes and gut flora in the last 11 years.

Methods:

We searched the Web of Science Core Collection database for articles on diabetes and gut flora related research from 2011-2021 on July 2, 2022. The literature data were analyzed for country, institution, author, steward, journal, and highly cited literature using Citespace.5.8.R3 and Vosviewer1.6.17.

Results:

Finally 4834 articles that met the requirements were included. The overall trend of articles published in the last 11 years is increasing, and the trend of articles published after 2019 is increasing significantly. In total, 109 countries, 4820 institutions, and 23365 authors were involved in the field of research. The highest number of publications was 1262 articles from the United States, the institution with the most publications was the University of Copenhagen with 134 articles, and the author with the most publications was PATRICE D CANI with 52 articles.

Conclusion:

The number of studies related to diabetes and intestinal flora is increasing and more and more researchers are involved in this field. Intestinal flora provides a key research direction for the treatment of diabetes. In the future, gut flora will remain the focus of the diabetes field.

Introduction

Chronic hyperglycemia is the primary symptom of diabetes mellitus, which is a broad name for a diverse metabolic condition of the body’s sugars. Currently, diabetes affects more than 425 million individuals globally (1). Type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes are the three primary categories of diabetes (2). The greatest microbial system in the body is the flora of the intestines. Diabetes may result from changes in gut flora (3). One important aspect of human health is the kind of bacteria in the gut (4). Human health depends on the gut’s bacteria maintaining equilibrium (5). Individuals with diabetes have significantly different gut flora from healthy people (6). It is unclear how gut flora dysbiosis results in diabetes. It could be connected to the theories of fatty acids, bile acids, and endotoxins. For the prevention of diabetes, the research of diabetes based on gut flora is crucial.

Through statistical techniques, bibliometric analysis enables the quantitative investigation of trends in a topic (7). The method has been created and used in a variety of industries, including climate change (8), architecture (9), and. biology (10). There is, however, no bibliometric study of research on the relationship between gut flora and diabetes. Through a bibliometric examination of trends in research on diabetes and intestinal flora from 2011 to 2021, the goal of this study was to determine research priorities in this area. The study’s findings offer several research resources.

Materials and methods

Data source

The original data for this study were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection database and were published from 2011-01-01 to 2021-12-31. article type was restricted to Article and Review only. 2 researchers conducted the search process independently, with the search formula: Topic=(“ diabetes mellitus” or “diabete*” or “diabetic*” or “diabetic mellitus”) AND Topic=(“gastrointestinal microbiome*” or “gut microbiome*” or “gut microflora” or “gut microbiota*” or “gastrointestinal flora” or “gut flora” or “gastrointestinal microbiota*” or “gastrointestinal microbial communit*” or “gastrointestinal microflora” or “gastric microbiome* “ or “intestinal microbiome*” or “intestinal microbiota*” or “ intestinal flora”). The search date was July 2, 2022, and the language was limited to: English. Excluding 350 non-compliant articles, 4834 valid articles were finally obtained as shown in Figure 1.

Discussion

This work is the first bibliometric evaluation of research on diabetes and intestinal flora, offering crucial data on this field of study to upcoming researchers. From the Web of Science Core Collection database, 4834 articles were gathered.

We started by looking at the publishing trend. Between 2011 and 2021, more articles on diabetes and gut flora were published each year. After 2019, there was a noticeable surge in publications. This could be connected to the rise in research on gut flora and polysaccharides in diabetes (13). The rise in publications suggests that more scientists are working on projects involving gut flora and diabetes. In 2011, Everard et al. (14) conducted research on how gut flora control helps diabetic mice’s blood glucose levels.

The United States has published 1262 publications during the past 11 years, which is the most of any nation for research on diabetes and gut flora. The United States, which has the most developed economy in the world, also funds the most research on gut flora and diabetes. The University of Copenhagen, which is located in Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, is the organization with the most publications. This facility has demonstrated that controlling gut flora can stop type 2 diabetes (15). Patricia D. Cani is the author with the most publications, and her research suggests that changes in gut flora may contribute to diabetic inflammation (16). Patients with prodromal diabetes have abnormalities in their gut flora (16). Dysosmobacter welbionis, a human commensal bacteria, was shown to be able to prevent diet-induced obesity and metabolic problems (17). Nutrients is the most widely read publication, with 177 articles on gut flora and diabetes. In type 1 diabetes, nutritional variables play a significant role in controlling the gut flora (18). In diabetic individuals, mung bean seed coat extract can modify the gut flora (19).

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), organic fatty acids produced by bacterial fermentation of large fibrous material in the distal gut, may improve characteristics of type 2 diabetes (20). Their main beneficial activities lie in reducing serum glucose levels, insulin resistance and inflammation, and increasing protective glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion.Liu et al. (21) investigated how proanthocyanidins may alter intestinal flora to improve insulin resistance in gestational diabetes, which is a crucial aspect of the research of intestinal flora in diabetes. Proanthocyanidins from peanut peels can control gut flora to reduce type 2 diabetes’s insulin resistance (22). Dietary changes that alter gut flora can reduce insulin resistance (23). In-demand right now is the subject of pathways. Wu et al. (24)’s study on the effects of rhubarb tea extract on metabolic syndrome found that it reduced adipogenesis and altered microbiota through the SIRT6/SREBP1 pathway. Urolithin A was investigated by xiao et al. (25) to treat intestinal barrier malfunction and cognitive impairment brought on by diabetes. Dioscorea and Cornus officinalis were found by chen et al. (26) to reduce testicular damage in diabetic rats via the butyric acid/glucagon-like peptide-1/glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor pathway, which is mediated by the intestinal microbiota. In recent years, polysaccharides have also played a significant role in research. Pumpkin polysaccharides can alter the flora in type 2 diabetics’ digestive tracts (27). In type 2 diabetes, ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides can control the flora in the gut (28). Polysaccharides increase the amount of Lactobacillus that controls the flora in the digestive tract (29). In addition, bariatric surgery affects the gut flora of diabetes patients (30, 31). There will be more information regarding diabetes and gut flora as research advances.

Strengths and limitations

The bibliometric evaluation of works on diabetes and intestinal flora is presented in this paper for the first time. Our bibliometric study was more thorough and clear than the literature review because we employed a systematic search and quantitative statistical analysis. Our study does have certain shortcomings, though. Although the great majority of articles are in the Web of Science Core Collection database, the information might not be full.

Conclusion

In this study, Citespace.5.8.R3 and Vosviewer1.6.17 were used to evaluate 4834 publications on studies relating diabetes and gut flora from 2011 to 2021. Over the past 11 years, research on diabetes and gut flora has grown, most significantly in the last 3 years. Research in this field is being conducted by 23365 authors in 109 nations and 4820 institutions. This bibliometric analysis serves as a resource for scholars.
