The articles were analyzed by publication year, number of citations, document type, journals, keywords, institutions, country of origin, and authorship. Results The top 100 articles on ST were published between 1945 to 2017. The number of citations ranges from 39 to 227 and the interquartile range was 35.5. The United States published the highest number (n=21) of articles. Mahidol University was the most prolific institution in terms of articles (n=14).
