Exploring the relationship between intestinal immunity and obesity: A bibliometric and knowledge-map analysis

Over the past 20 years, research on intestinal immunity and obesity has experienced the initial rapid expansion, stabilization period, and current breakthrough period. The in-depth application of multi-omics analysis and artificial intelligence, as well as the development of gene editing technology, may provide new ideas for targeted modulation of specific intestinal immune cells or microbes for obesity treatment, which may be the main direction of future research in this field.
