The Evolution of Publication Hotspots in Electronic Health Records from 1957 to 2016 and Differences Among Six Countries.
2020
This study aims to reveal the evolution of publication hotspots in the field of electronic health records (EHRs) and differences among countries. We applied keyword frequency analysis, keyword co-occurrence analysis, principal component analysis, multidimensional scaling analysis, and visualization technology to compare the high-frequency Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) terms in six countries during the periods 1957-2008 and 2009-2016. After 2009, the number of MeSH terms reflecting information exchange and information mining increased, and various types of evaluations based on EHRs and cohort studies significantly increased. The top 20 MeSH terms between 2009 and 2016 constitute five relatively larger knowledge groups. Thus, we conclude that publication hotspots in EHR field have shifted from issues related to the adoption of EHRs to the utilization of EHRs, and the knowledge structure has become systematic. The publication's focus was different in the six countries, which may relate to their national characteristics.
