Potential value and research frontiers of viruses in inflammatory bowel diseases: a bibliometric analysis
This study establishes an integrated knowledge framework of virus-IBD research, highlighting three essential domains: gut virome regulation and therapy, clinical management of opportunistic viral infections, and IBD care in the COVID-19 era. It further clarified the pathophysiological interplay between viral factors and IBD. By synthesizing key contributors, core themes, and evolutionary trends, this work provides a practical foundation for guiding translational research and promoting clinical innovation.
