Abstract
Background: Genetic factors are considered important risk factors for the occurrence of osteoarthritis (OA), which has received extensive attention. This study examined the research on the relationship between genetic factors and the pathogenesis of OA from a bibliometric perspective. Methods: We searched Web of Science Core Collection for original and review articles on genetic factors and OA. We used R package “bibliometrix” to perform statistical and visualization analysis of countries, institutions, authors, journals, and keywords. Results: A total of 1,127 articles met the inclusion criteria, with an average citation of 20.41 per article. From 2012 to 2022, the average annual growth rate of research in this field was 7.83%. The corresponding authors of the published articles were mainly from China, the USA, and the UK. Boston University emerged as the most active and important institution, while the Osteoarthritis and Cartilage published the most articles in this field. The keywords “polymorphism”, “genetic” and “mendelian randomization” indicate the future research directions. Conclusion: This bibliometric study provides an overview of the key topics and trends in genetic factors and OA pathogenesis research. The high-frequency keywords suggest the current and potential future focus of this field, involving methods, mechanisms, and populations.
