Dataset of hotspots and trends in recurrent pregnancy loss from 2014 to 2024: a bibliometric analysis

<strong>Background:</strong> Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a suffering pregnancy disease defined by the spontaneous loss of two or more pregnancies. The etiology of RPL is complex, and its pathogenesis has not been elucidated. Therefore, it’s necessary to combine relevant articles to find and analyze the contacts between the research hotspots, and then predict the development trend in RPL.<strong>Methods:</strong> RPL related literature was obtained from the Web of Science (WoS) database from 2014 to 2024. We analyzed the data by VOSViewer for the number of publications, citations, countries, journals, institutions, authors and documents, and for data sorting and visualization and Citespace 6.2 R6 software was used for clustering and emergent analysis of keywords. <br><br>

背景：复发性流产（Recurrent pregnancy loss, RPL）是一类以连续两次及以上妊娠自然终止为定义的妊娠疾病，给患者带来极大痛苦。该疾病病因复杂，发病机制尚未阐明。因此，有必要结合相关研究文献，挖掘并分析研究热点之间的关联，进而预测复发性流产领域的发展趋势。

方法：本研究从2014年至2024年的Web of Science（WoS）数据库中获取复发性流产相关文献。采用VOSViewer软件对文献的发文量、被引频次、发文国家、刊载期刊、研究机构、作者及单篇文献进行数据整理、统计分析与可视化；同时使用Citespace 6.2 R6软件对关键词进行聚类与突现分析。
