Abstract

Background: The research combined different bibliometric techniques to analyze systematically recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) documents from 1970 to 2023. Methods: Overall, 1287 documents from the Web of Science database associated with recurrent pregnancy loss between 1970 and 2023 were identified for more than 300 journals. The data were analyzed with VOSviewer software. Results: The trend of paying attention to the topic of RPL can be divided into three periods. The number of publications on RPL increased significantly after 2010. Most of the papers were published in Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive Biology areas. Utilizing co-occurrence and co-citation analysis, our study found that the most influential documents mapped the knowledge structure, and projected future research directions. The co-occurrence analysis showed five clusters even though the co-citation analysis designates four. Conclusion: RPL has increased in recent years exponentially and some areas were explained carefully, therefore these results could be used as a research agenda for the future direction by a range of interested beneficiaries.
