    AbstractThe prodromal period of Parkinson's disease (PD) is currently a hot topic in PD research. However, no bibliometric analysis has been conducted in this research field. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the status, hotspots, and trends in the prodromal period of PD using bibliometrics. CiteSpace and visualization of similarities viewer were used to analyze articles and reviews on the prodromal period of PD in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. We analyzed the data on countries, institutions, journals, authors, keywords, and cited references. In total, 909 articles from 65 countries, including the United States (n = 265, 29.15%) and Germany (n = 174, 19.14%), were included. The number of articles and reviews related to the prodromal period of PD has increased yearly. The University of Tubingen (n = 45, 4.95%), McGill University (n = 33, 3.63%), and University of London (n = 33, 3.63%) were the research institutions with the most published studies. Movement Disorders is the journal with the largest number of published papers (n = 98, 10.8%) and the most cited publications (co-citation = 7035). These publications are from 4681 authors, with Berg (n = 49, 5.39%) and Postuma (n = 40, 4.40%) publishing the most publications, and Postuma's study (n = 1206) having the most citations. Studying the nonmotor symptoms of PD precursors is a major topic in this research field. This is the first bibliometric study to comprehensively summarize the research trends and developments in the prodromal period of PD. This information identifies recent research frontiers and hotspots and provides a reference for scholars studying the prodromal period of PD.Copyright © 2024 the Author(s).
