A Bibliometric Analysis of Chrononutrition, Cardiometabolic Risk, and Public Health in International Research (1957-2025).

: Breakfast has emerged as a critical factor in preventing cardiovascular diseases, driven not only by its nutritional content but also by its alignment with circadian rhythms. However, gaps remain in the literature regarding its clinical impact and thematic evolution. : To characterize the global scientific output on the relationship between breakfast quality and cardiovascular health through a systematic bibliometric analysis. : The PRISMA 2020 protocol was applied to select 1436 original articles indexed in Scopus and Web of Science (1957-2025). Bibliometric tools, including R (v4.4.2) and VOSviewer (v1.6.19) were used to map productivity, impact, collaboration networks, and emerging thematic areas. : Scientific output has grown exponentially since 2000. The most influential journals are the , , and . The United States, United Kingdom, and Japan lead in publication volume and citations, with increasing participation from Latin American countries. Thematic trends have shifted from traditional clinical markers to innovative approaches such as chrononutrition, digital health, and personalized nutrition. However, methodological gaps persist, including a predominance of observational studies and an underrepresentation of vulnerable populations. : Breakfast is a dietary practice with profound implications for cardiometabolic health. This study provides a comprehensive overview of scientific literature, highlighting both advancements and challenges. Strengthening international collaboration networks, standardizing definitions of a healthy breakfast, and promoting evidence-based interventions in school, clinical, and community settings are recommended.
