目的 探析人参Panax ginseng近年来的研究热点与前沿，为人参的研究进展做全面概述，帮助迅速把握其研究内涵和研究方向并为今后的研究工作提供见解。方法 通过检索中国知识资源总库（CNKI）、万方数据库、维普数据库、中国生物医学文献数据库和Web of Science核心合集数据库2003年1月1日－2023年12月31日收录的中英文人参相关文献，采用CiteSpace和VOSviewer软件分别对已发表的中英文文献作者、机构和关键词绘制成图谱，并进行共现、聚类和时间线可视化分析。结果 共纳入文献18 833篇，其中中文文献10 373篇，英文文献8 460篇。近20年人参的中、英文发文量均呈现阶段性变化趋势，整体上呈现稳定增长态态势。中、英文文献发文量最多的作者分别是张连学和Yang Deok-Chun；发文量最多的研究机构分别为中国吉林农业大学和韩国庆熙大学；中国是英文文献发文量最多的国家，且与其他国家保持广泛的联系。结论 人参研究当前主要集中在其化学成分分析、临床应用、药理作用、药物栽培等方面，并已得到国内外学者的关注，具有良好的发展势头。人参抗衰老、抗肿瘤机制与糖尿病的防治是现阶段研究热点，预计在未来一段时间内将持续受到关注。同时，中医药理论指导下人参功效的现代科学解释仍需进一步深入研究。

Objective To explore the research hotspots and frontiers of Renshen (Panax ginseng) in recent years, providing a comprehensive overview of P. ginseng’s research progress and helping researchers quickly grasp its research connotation and direction to provide insights for future research. Methods Relevant Chinese and English literature on P. ginseng published between January 1, 2003 and December 31, 2023 were retrieved from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, VIP Database, China Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), and Web of Science Core Collection. CiteSpace and VOSviewer software were used to map the authors, institutions and keywords of published Chinese and English literatures, as well as to carry out the co-occurrence, clustering and time line visualization analysis. Results A total of 18 833 articles were included, including 10 373 Chinese and 8 460 English publications. Over the past two decades, both Chinese and English publications on P. ginseng have exhibited a phased growth trend, with a generally stable upward trajectory. The authors with the most publications in Chinese and English literature were Zhang Lianxue and Yang Deok-Chun, respectively. The research institutions with the most publications were Jilin Agricultural University in China and Kyung Hee University in South Korea. China is the country with the largest number of English literature publications and maintains extensive contacts with other countries. Conclusion Current P. ginseng research focuses on the analysis of chemical components, clinical applications, pharmacological effects, and cultivation practices. This area has attracted significant attention from both domestic and international scholars and demonstrates strong growth potential. The anti-aging and antitumor mechanisms of P. ginseng, as well as its role in diabetes prevention and treatment, are key research hotspots that are expected to continue to attract attention for some time to come. Moreover, modern scientific interpretations of P. ginseng’s efficacy, as guided by traditional Chinese medicine theories, require further exploration.
