[Research Hotspots on Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in Pregnancy Based on Bibliometrics]

Objective To explore the research hotspots on systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in pregnancy based on the bibliometric analysis of the related articles published from 2018 to 2023 and provide directions for the future research in this field. Methods PubMed,Web of Science,and Embase were searched for the articles on SLE in pregnancy that were published from January 1,2018 to December 31,2023.VOSviewer was used to visualize the high-frequency keywords in the selected articles. Results A total of 266 articles were selected,from which 25 high-frequency keywords were extracted.The bibliometric analysis showed that the available studies about SLE in pregnancy mainly focused on maternal complications,maternal and fetal outcomes,and medications.The studies were limited regarding the predictors,autoimmunity,immunotherapy,and long-term outcomes of offspring. Conclusion Maternal complications,maternal and fetal outcomes,and medications are currently hotspots in the research on SLE in pregnancy,while predictors,autoimmunity,immunotherapy,and long-term outcomes of offspring may become future research directions.
