METHODS The literature on internet pharmaceutical service research published from CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed and Web of Science core collection database since the establishment to 2021 was searched. BICOMB 2.02 software was used to extract and count the included Chinese and English literature separately, and the word-part matrix and co-occurrence matrix of high-frequency keywords were generated. NetDraw 2.089 software was used to perform social network analysis on the co-occurrence matrix and draw a social network diagram, and Ucinet 6.212 software was used to perform centrality analysis on the network. Finally, gCLUTO 1.0 software was used to perform clustering analysis on the word-part matrix.
