The development of nanosensors for diabetes biosensing current trend and bibliometric analysis using the lens database

Diabetes mellitus is a rapidly developing global health issue that necessitates precise, fast, and minimally invasive glucose monitoring methods to avoid long-term problems. Traditional methods, such as finger-prick testing, are still limited in sensitivity, comfort, and ability to offer real-time data, emphasising the need for new diagnostic tactics. Nanomaterials have gained popularity in biosensing due to their distinctive properties compared with their bulk counterparts. Despite several narrative reviews, there is a shortage of focused statistical evidence and bibliometric evaluation that consolidates current knowledge and identifies emerging research areas. The aim of this study is to perform a systematic literature reviewguided with Lens.org-based bibliometric analysis. By combining targeted synthesis with statistical analysis, this study screened 185 records to identify relevant scholarly works and 62 records for patent works using single database (i.e. Lens.org). This study provides an initial mapping for understanding the impact of nanomaterials in diabetes biosensing and outlines future directions for advancing nanotechnology-driven healthcare solutions.
