Bibliometric Analysis of Organoids in Regenerative Medicine-Related Research Worldwide Over Two Decades (2002–2022)

Abstract

Aim:

This study aimed to evaluate the trends in organoid culture research within the field of regenerative medicine from 2002 to 2022.

Methods:

The worldwide distribution of organoid research in regenerative medicine articles indexed in the Scopus database was analyzed.

Result:

A total of 840 documents were analyzed, averaging 42 publications annually. The USA (n = 296) led in publications, followed by China (n = 127), Japan (n = 91) and the UK (n = 75). Since 2011, research has surged, particularly in China, which emerged as a prominent center.

Conclusion:

The findings highlight significant growth in organoid research, promising future organ transplantation. Research trends integrate tissue engineering, gene modification and induced pluripotent stem cell technologies, reflecting a move toward personalized medicine.
