Objective:

To analyze the research status and development trends of targeted therapy in bladder cancer (BC) using bibliometric methods.

Key Findings:
  • Annual publication volume for targeted therapy in BC has generally increased over the past three decades, with a faster growth rate in English publications.
  • The USA, University of Texas System, and Urologic Oncology—Seminars and Original Investigations were the most productive in English publications.
  • Research hotspots identified include 'phase-ii trial', 'cell line', and 'EGF receptor' for English publications, and 'migration', 'cell proliferation', and 'drug resistance' for Chinese publications.
Interpretation:

Limitations:
  • The study is limited to publications available in selected databases and may not encompass all relevant research.
  • Focus on bibliometric analysis may overlook qualitative aspects of research advancements.
Conclusion:
