Background: Precision medicine provides medical solutions to stratified patients with personalised forecasting outcome as an important method of treatment in the medical field. This study aims at delivering a structured overview to carry out a bibliometric analysis of precision medicine retrospectively.
Methods: The compilation of data and the use of bibliometric methods based on academic databases (Science Citation Index-Expanded and PubMed) from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2019. Research outputs, countries, institutions, authors, major journals, cited papers, hot subject areas were analysed.
Results: 8,566 papers related were identified (98.728% in English) covering 1,975 different journals. The papers were originated from 109 countries; the USA held the predominant contributors with 4,635 papers, China was on second with 925 papers.
Conclusions: Precision medicine serves important purposes in clinical treatment, and widely used in the oncology, biochemistry, molecular biology field. The study summarised existing work and provided guidance for future research in this promising precision medicine area.
