TLDR Current research on seborrheic dermatitis highlights key focus areas and suggests future study directions.

The study provides a comprehensive bibliometric and visual analysis of 1,436 publications on seborrheic dermatitis (SD) from 1996 to 2024, highlighting the USA, Italy, and China as leading contributors. It identifies a shift in research focus from clinical studies to understanding the disease's pathogenesis, emphasizing the roles of Malassezia and inflammation. Key treatment strategies involve antifungal and anti-inflammatory approaches, with agents like Ketoconazole and corticosteroids. The study underscores the importance of international collaboration and identifies emerging research trends, despite limitations such as language bias and underrepresentation of new research due to bibliometric tool constraints.
