We retrieved all literature data regarding the inflammasome/pyroptosis in brain indexed in the Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection (Clarivate Analysis, Boston, United States; http://apps.webofknowledge.com/WOS_GeneralSearch_input.do?product=WOS&SID=7DLaapxWMwSkqZf4LRr&search_mode=GeneralSearch ). The term pyroptosis was detected with MeSH (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/mesh ), whereas the “pyroptosis”, “inflammasome”, and “brain” show other expressions, such as “pyroptotic” and “pyroptosome”. The articles from 2000 to 2020 (October 16, 2020) were searched, the language type was set to English, and the document type was set to article and review.
The search terms and strategies used for the WOS database are as follows: # 1, “pyroptosis”; # 2, “pyroptotic”; # 3, “inflammasome”; # 4, “pyroptosome”; # 5 “brain”; # 6, “# 1” OR “# 2” OR “# 3” OR “# 4”; # 7, “# 5” AND “# 6”.
A total of 14,343 documents of “inflammasome OR pyroptosis” and 1,222 documents of “inflammasome OR pyroptosis AND brain” were retrieved from WOS Core Collection, and then the documents were used to make visual analysis ultimately. The deadline for researched publications was October 16, 2020.
