Summary

This bibliometric analysis mapped global research trends and hotspots in gastrointestinal microbiome and toxicity studies, finding that modifications to the gut microbiome could offer new directions for treating and mitigating toxic exposures.

Body Systems

Despite certain limitations, such as focusing solely on English-language publications and excluding unpublished literature, our findings provide valuable insights into the current state of research on toxicity and the gastrointestinal microbiome. In the future, modifications to the gastrointestinal microbiome could offer new directions for treating and mitigating toxicity. These discoveries provide a comprehensive perspective on the broader scope of this research field.
