Provisionally accepted- Suzhou Industrial Park Xinghai Hospital,, Suzhou, Liaoning Province, China
Background and Objective: Despite the growing body of research on Parkinson's disease (PD) and insomnia, comprehensive analysis of overall research trends remains limited. This study aims to evaluate these trends and identify research hot spots using bibliometric analysis.Methods: Publications on PD and insomnia from 1973 to 2024 were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection. Analytical tools such as VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and R 4.3.3 were employed for evaluation.Results: A total of 610 publications are analyzed, demonstrating a consistent upward trend. The United States leads the field with 150 articles, representing 24.59% of total output, followed by China with 79 publications. Harvard University is the top contributing institution with 44 articles. Movement Disorders ranks as the leading journal, publishing 28 papers (4.59% of the total) and also securing the top spot in total citations. The most prolific author is Lima Marcelo M. S., with 15 publications and 50 recorded collaborations. Burst keyword analysis revealed increasing interest in terms such as "validation," "index," and "scale" since 2019.Research on PD and insomnia exhibits a clear upward trend, reflecting increasing academic interest. Future studies are expected to focus on the validation of diagnostic tools, the development of scales, and the integration of artificial intelligence and personalized medicine for improved treatment precision.
