Countries, publications, authors, co-citations, and keywords were visualized and analyzed using CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and R software.ResultsA total of 438 articles have been published in the field, with the number increasing yearly. Chinese scholars constitute a significant force in the domain of research pertaining to this field. Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine is the institution with the highest number of publications. Cunzhi Liu (17) is the author with the highest number of publications. The journals with the most publications (39) and citations (652) are EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE. Basic research is the main type of research. Both co-cited literature analysis and keyword examination have indicated neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and stroke, as prominent research domains. Electroacupuncture is the most common intervention. Pain and inflammation may be a trend in research in this area.ConclusionThis bibliometric analysis summarises the disease mapping and some of the mechanisms of acupuncture's antioxidant effects. Neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease, vascular dementia, and stroke are major research areas in this field. Pain and inflammation may be a direction for future research.
