Abstract

Background: Lung cancer is the most common cancer in the world and has become one of the malignancies with the highest incidence and mortality; more than half of patients die within one year of being diagnosed with lung cancer. In recent years, the concept of "patient-centered" service has gained popularity, and patients' subjective feelings have gradually been used in clinical decision-making. Therefore, this study determined the application of visual patient report outcomes in the field of lung cancer, in order to provide reference for specific clinical practice.

Methods: Using the Web of Science core collection as the main analysis content, Citespace and VOSviewer were used to conduct this scientometric study.

Results: A total of 499 literatures that met the inclusion criteria were retrieved. The most prolific institution was The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, and the United States dominates this field.

Conclusion: The measurement of patient-reported outcomes is considered the gold standard for effectively evaluating patients' perceptions of clinical interventions or diseases. It is recommended that patient-reported outcomes be integrated into routine care for cancer patients in order to enhance communication between patients and healthcare providers.

Patient or public contribution: Not applicable. All data in this paper are obtained from the web of science database.

Keywords: VOSviewer; bibliometrics visualization analysis; lung cancer; patient-reported outcomes.
