Zusammenfassung	Bibliometrix-assisted thematic evolution analysis uses the bibliometrix R package to trace how research themes emerge, mature, decline, or transform across successive time periods within a scientific field. By combining co-word analysis with strategic diagram visualisation, the workflow maps the intellectual structure of a field and reveals longitudinal shifts in topic centrality and development, producing reproducible, publication-ready outputs within a single R environment.	Co-word analysis is a scientometric technique that quantifies how often pairs of keywords, subject terms, or title words appear together across a corpus of publications. By treating simultaneous occurrence as a proxy for conceptual relatedness, it constructs networks and clusters that reveal the intellectual structure, dominant themes, and emerging sub-fields of a research domain.
