Visualizing the prognostic value of neuron-
specific enolase in acute ischemic stroke:
a bibliometric analysis
Abstract
Introduction In recent years, neuron-specific enolase (NSE) has been explored as a suitable biomarker for cerebral
damage, specifically following ischemic stroke. This bibliometric analysis sought to illuminate patterns in…
