Neurodegenerative diseases are chronic diseases with high incidence, which threaten seriously health and quality of life. Thus, neurodegenerative diseases research is highly concerned around the world. Based on the papers collected in the Web of Science database and the drug development data collected in the Cortellis database, this paper intends to reveal the international development trends from basic research to translational research to industry. Using bibliometrics methods, the paper assesses the research scale, research level of major countries and institutes, as well as the research focus in the field of neurodegenerative diseases. The translational and industrial development is analyzed by the drug development data. Some suggestions were put forward so as to provide reference for the development of neurodegenerative diseases research in China.

Nuclear fusion can be regarded as the most ideal future energy for human renewable development. The ultimate goal of controlled nuclear fusion research is to realize the commercial application of fusion energy. The major developed countries have developed fusion energy research strategies and explored various new technologies and concepts that can be directly used in commercial fusion reactors to speed up this process. After more than half a century of unremitting efforts, countries all over the world have made breakthroughs in magnetic confinement fusion theory, key technologies and experimental devices. This article mainly analyzes the international development trend of magnetic confinement fusion from aspects of international relevant strategic planning, status of ITER program, research progress and key frontier technologies, reveals the main characteristics of national institutions and scientific research personnel in the field of nuclear fusion from the perspective of bibliometrics, and put forward suggestions for the future development of nuclear fusion in China.

The report looks at 12 major industries and examines a specific subsector within each. For each sector and subsector, search strategies using a combination of keywords and classifications, both public (IPC) and proprietary (Derwent classes and Derwent manual codes), were run in DWPI to derive raw counts of the number of inventions within each category. The data was then analyzed to produce listings of the key players by volume of inventions globally and within the three major geographic regions of Asia, EMEA and North America. Additional insight was provided by further bespoke searching and analysis of scientific data on Web of Science and patent data on Derwent Innovation by our expert analysts to identify key developments and possible directions for ongoing innovation.
