摘要/Abstract

摘要：

目的分析近10年动作观察疗法(AOT)在脑卒中康复领域的应用趋势和研究热点。

方法检索2016年1月至2025年12月在Web of Science核心合集数据库中AOT在脑卒中康复领域研究的相关文献，采用CiteSpace 6.4.R1软件进行可视化分析。

结果共纳入463篇文献。年发文量呈波动上升趋势，发文量最多的国家是中国，发文量最多的机构是长庚大学和Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche，发文量最多的作者是Avanzini Pietro。mirror neuron system、motor imagery、upper limb和facilitation是高频关键词和突现词。

结论近10年AOT在脑卒中康复领域研究发文量总体呈上升趋势，研究热点聚焦于感知-闭环多模态技术协同，以及上肢精细功能重建和神经促进机制的解析。

关键词: 脑卒中, 动作观察疗法, 神经可塑性, 文献计量学

Abstract:

Objective To analyze the application trends and research hotspots of action observation therapy (AOT) in the field of stroke rehabilitation over the past decade.

Methods Literatures on AOT in stroke rehabilitation published from January, 2016 to December, 2025 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. CiteSpace 6.4.R1 was used for visual analysis.

Results A total of 463 articles were included. The annual publication volume showed a fluctuating upward trend. The country with the highest number of publications was China, the most productive institution was Chang Gung University and Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, and the most prolific author was Avanzini Pietro. Mirror neuron system, motor imagery, upper limb and facilitation were identified as high-frequency keywords and bursting words.

Conclusion In the past decade, the number of publications on AOT in stroke rehabilitation has generally increased. Researches are focusing on the synergy of sensory-closed-loop multimodal technologies, reconstruction of fine upper limb function and neural facilitation mechanisms.

Key words: stroke, action observation therapy, neural plasticity, bibliometrics
