Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) research has surged since 2010. Bibliometric analysis reveals key knowledge structures and future research directions in obstetrics and reproductive biology.
Area of Science:
- Reproductive Medicine
- Obstetrics and Gynecology
- Bibliometrics
Background:
- Systematic analysis of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) literature from 1970-2023.
- Utilized bibliometric techniques for comprehensive review.
Purpose of the Study:
- To systematically analyze the scientific literature on recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL).
- To map the knowledge structure and identify future research directions in RPL.
Main Methods:
- Bibliometric analysis of 1287 documents from Web of Science (1970-2023).
- Analysis performed using VOSviewer software.
- Co-occurrence and co-citation analyses were employed.
Main Results:
- Publication trends show a significant increase in RPL research after 2010.
- Key research areas include Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive Biology.
- Co-occurrence analysis identified five clusters; co-citation analysis identified four, revealing influential documents and knowledge mapping.
Conclusions:
- Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) research has grown exponentially.
- Findings provide a research agenda for future studies in RPL.
- Results are valuable for researchers and clinicians in reproductive medicine.

Gonadal and Placental Hormones
In males, testosterone is the primary gonadal androgen. It plays a central role in the maturation of male reproductive organs — the penis and testes. Additionally, testosterone is instrumental in the development of secondary sexual characteristics — a deep voice as well as facial and pubic hair...
