Abstract

Background: Recently, research on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has made rapid progress and grown rapidly. It is a challenge to comprehensively understand RA research and hotspots. The aim of this study was to explore the current status and research trends of RA through bibliometric analysis and to provide directions for future development. Methods: Publications on RA from 2011 to 2020 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database (WoSCC). VOSviewer, CiteSpace and online bibliometric platform were used to analyze publication characteristics, including countries, institutions, journals, authors, core references, and keywords. Results: A total of 17,037 publications were included. The publications steadily increased over the 10 years. The United States (3648 publications), with the largest proportion of publications and citations, was the largest contributor. Karolinska Institutet (508) and Annals of the Rheumatoid Disease (763) were the most active institution and journal, respectively. Emery P (193) and Tanaka Y (193) were the most prolific authors, and Smolen JS ranked first among the cited authors. The most cited reference focused on recommendations for the management of RA with synthetic and biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. A co-occurrence network analysis revealed four highly connected clusters of keywords in RA research, including etiology, pathology, prognosis, biomarkers and treatment of RA. Conclusion: The present study shows a systematic and comprehensive overview of the RA-related research in the past 10 years. Clinical trials on the long-term efficiency and safety of JAK inhibitors and other novel targeted drugs may be the potential research directions for future study in this field.
