  • Global Trends in Research of Prostate Cancer and Physical Activity: A Bibliometric and Visualized Analysis From 2014 to 2024 Kangning Han Zhaoyang Li Minghao Chen Hongyan Chen Tengfei Chen Andrologia Background Physical activity has been shown to lower the risk of prostate cancer (PCa) incidence, the second most frequent malignant tumor in males globally, and to improve the prognosis of cancer patients. However, no research on bibliometric analysis has been conducted in this field yet. This study aims to map the global research landscape concerning physical activity and PCa, pinpoint current hotspots, and predict future frontiers. Method From January 1, 2014 to June 25, 2024, physical activity and PCa‐related original and reviewed literature were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and the bibliometrix R software package were used in the visualization research. The authors that published the most papers in this field, the journals that published the most papers, the nations that published the most papers, and the keywords were examined using bibliometric methods like Price’s Law, Bradford’s Law, Lotka’s Law, and Zipf’s Law. Result In terms of publication volume, the United States led all other nations, with Robert U. Newton being identified as a key contributing author in this research domain. In addition, Supportive Care in Cancer was the most attractive journal. Association of Leisure Physical Activity With Risk of 26 Types of Cancer in 1.44 Million Adults, it is regarded as the most valuable article in this field. “Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT),” “quality of life,” “fatigue,” “survivorship,” “diet,” “nutrition,” and “obesity” have been the hotspots in the treatment of PCa in recent years. The research trends in the coming years will mainly focus on “metabolic syndrome,” “urinary incontinence,” “home‐based exercise,” and “prostate‐specific antigen (PSA).” Conclusion Physical activity can reduce the negative impact on patients after castration therapy for PCa and the sequelae, such as urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy. These findings support the inclusion of home exercise in standard PCa care, providing a practical and safe option for enhancing the health and well‐being of PCa survivors. 10.1155/and/6313402 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
