Abstract:Objective To visually analyze the research content and direction of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis in the past 20 years by drawing map, and to provide reference for further development of this field. Methods A total of 3426 literatures of Chinese medicine for lumbar stenosis was retrieved from January 2000 to December 2020 by China National Knowledge Infrastructure. CiteSpace 5.7.R5 software was used to make the relevant maps of authors, research institutions and keywords, analyze the distribution and cooperation of main research forces in this field, and explore the frontier and hot spots information in this field. Results The analysis of published papers showed that in the past 20 years, the number of published papers on the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis with traditional Chinese medicine fluctuated greatly. It was obviously affected by the sudden hot spots around 2018, but the overall trend was on the rise. The author collaboration map analysis showed that three teams with Gao Jinghua, Yang Kexin and Gao Chunyu were formed as the core. The map analysis of research institutions showed that the inter-agency cooperation was not good. The co-occurrence map of key words showed that lumbar disc herniation was the first; lumbar spinal stenosis, massage and disc herniation were important support points for the current research in the field of traditional Chinese medicine treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis; twelve large clusters were formed, reflecting the current research hotspots, involving lumbar disc herniation, degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis, lumbago and leg pain, etc. The time line map indicated that the related studies of disc herniation and spinal stenosis lasted for 10 years or more, which was the research focus and future trend of traditional Chinese medicine treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis. Conclusion The overall research in the field of lumbar spinal stenosis is not perfect; the future research should strengthen the close cooperation between authors and institutions, deeply study the clinical efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine methods on lumbar spinal stenosis, further carry out clinical randomized control trials, strengthen the basic research, and improve the traditional Chinese medicine treatment research system of lumbar spinal stenosis.
