Abstract:

In order to systematically review the current research status and development trends of ginsenosides in the field of cancer treatment,this study retrieved a total of 1 358 Chinese and English publications from CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,and the Web of Science core database,including 492 Chinese publications and 866 English publications.Meanwhile,735 related global patents were obtained using the IncoPat patent database,constructing a dataset of relevant literature and patents spanning from January 1,2000 to October 1,2025.The first part employed CiteSpace software to visualize publication trends,countries,institutional collaborations,author networks,keyword co-occurrence,and clustering analysis.The second part utilized GraphPad Prism and Excel to perform bibliometric analysis on global patent application trends,regional distribution,applicants,patent conversion rates,and invalidity rates.The dataset produced 14 Excel tables and 24 figures,providing a comprehensive overview of research and intellectual property arrangements of ginsenosides in cancer prevention and treatment.This offers systematic data support and decision-making references for future research directions,patent strategy optimization,and clinical translation in this field,thereby promoting the development of more precise and efficient strategies for cancer prevention and treatment.
