Abstract

Purpose: to conduct an analytical analysis of publications devoted to injuries in judo using the VOSviewer software in the PubMed web database. Material and methods. To create a sample of studies as of 01.01.2025, bibliometric analysis of PubMed data was used. The phrase “injuries in judo” was used for the search. The analysis of publications was carried out from 1955 (date of the first publication) to 12.31.2024. The VOSviewer 1.6.19 program was used: keyword analysis method and direct citation analysis with the construction of bibliometric maps, visualization of cluster density and citation weight. Results: 793 publications were removed using the VOSviewer 1.6.19 program. The research period was divided into 7 parts of ten years each: 1955-1964 - 3 publications, 1965-1974 - 7 publications, 1975-1984 - 13 publications, 1985-1994 - 25 publications, 1995-2004 - 113 publications, 2005-2014 - 248 publications, 2015-2024 - 384 publications. In the period from 1955 to December 31, 2024, 3091 authors were found. The most popular authors are: Bernick Charles (11 publications; total link strength 67), Lambert Christophe (8 publications; total link strength 47), Liu Yuzhe (7 publications; total link strength 78), Grand Gerld (7 publications; total link strength 77), Camarillo David (6 publications; total link strength 54), Shan Guogen (6 publications; total link strength 41), Banks Sarah (6 publications; total link strength 33). The program found 2128 elements (keywords). For better analysis, a threshold of 5 was specified in order to remove words that occur infrequently. 269 elements were selected for network visualization. They were grouped into 7 clusters. The network includes 8167 links, with a total number of 36107. The most popular studies were highlighted. These studies are located around the keywords: «humans», «male», «martial arts», «female», «adult», «athletic injuries», «adolescent», «young adult», «middle aged», «athletes». The visualization of the overlap shows that most of the keywords with the latest publication dates characterize broader concepts (sports activity, training process, control of the level of preparedness), and older publications are devoted to narrower studies (injuries of body parts and various diseases). Conclusions. An analytical analysis of publications in the PubMed bibliometric database was conducted. There is a significant increase in the number of publications with each decade, and starting from 1995 this increase becomes rapid. Seven clusters were identified that characterized the main areas of scientific research. The main body of scientific publications is aimed at: identifying the most common and serious injuries in judoists during training and competition; forming the basis for further research into the factors and mechanisms of injury risk; developing an injury prevention program. The presented material will be useful to coaches, athletes and specialists in the field of sports medicine to improve the safety of the training process and preserve the health of judoists.
