About
Peijing Yan is a prominent surgical researcher whose work sits at the intersection of robotic surgery, minimally invasive techniques, and evidence-based medicine. Specializing in systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and scientometric studies, Yan has made significant contributions to evaluating the comparative effectiveness of robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic surgical approaches across multiple disciplines, including colorectal cancer, bariatric surgery, and gallbladder disease. Yan's most influential work — a 2018 cross-sectional study critiquing the methodological quality of robotic surgical meta-analyses (117 citations) — established important standards for how evidence in this rapidly evolving field should be appraised and reported. Complementing this, Yan's comparative meta-analyses on cholecystectomy (77 citations) and rectal cancer proctectomy (52 citations) provided clinicians with rigorous, synthesized evidence to guide surgical decision-making. A recurring theme throughout Yan's portfolio is the commitment to bibliometric and scientometric analysis, mapping the intellectual landscape of robotic surgery research to identify trends and gaps in the literature. With a cumulative citation count exceeding 396 across ten major publications, Yan's research has meaningfully shaped how the surgical community evaluates emerging robotic technologies, offering both methodological guidance and clinical insight that continues to influence researchers and practitioners worldwide.
