Abstract
Disorders of lipid metabolism play a key role in the initiation and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Recently, research on lipid metabolism in CKD has rapidly increased worldwide. However, comprehensive bibliometric analyses in this field are lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate publications in the field of lipid metabolism in CKD over the past 20years based on bibliometric analysis methods to understand the important achievements, popular research topics, and emerging thematic trends. Literature on lipid metabolism in CKD, published between 2004 and 2023, was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. The VOSviewer (v.1.6.19), CiteSpace (v.6.3 R1), R language (v.4.3.2), and Bibliometrix (v.4.1.4) packages (https://www.bibliometrix.org) were used for the bibliometric analysis and visualization. Annual output, author, country, institution, journal, cited literature, co-cited literature, and keywords were also included. The citation frequency and H-index were used to evaluate quality and influence. In total, 1,285 publications in the field of lipid metabolism in CKD were identified in this study. A total of 7,615 authors from 1,885 institutions in 69 countries and regions published articles in 466 journals. Among them, China was the most productive (368 articles), and the United States had the most citations (17,880 times) and the highest H-index (75). Vaziri Nosratola D, Levi Moshe, Fornoni Alessia, Zhao Yingyong, and Merscher Sandra emerged as core authors. Levi Moshe (2,247 times) and Vaziri Nosratola D (1,969 times) were also authors of the top two most cited publications. The International Journal of Molecular Sciences and Kidney International are the most published and cited journals in this field, respectively. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) have attracted significant attention in the field of lipid metabolism. Oxidative stress, inflammation, insulin resistance, autophagy, and cell death are the key research topics in this field. Through bibliometric analysis, the current status and global trends in lipid metabolism in CKD were demonstrated. CVD and DKD are closely associated with the lipid metabolism of patients with CKD. Future studies should focus on effective CKD treatments using lipid-lowering targets.
