Abstract
Purpose: Ovarian endometriosis, a prevalent condition in reproductive-age women, causes dysmenorrhea and infertility, significantly impairing quality of life. To date, there is no systematic description of ovarian endometriosis in the literature. This study aimed to explore the development of ovarian endometriosis via bibliometric analysis and to identify global trends and frontiers.
Methods: We systematically reviewed all pertinent studies up to 2023 from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) were downloaded. We examined the data via the Bibliometrix program in R (version 4.3.2), CiteSpace software, and the Online Analysis Platform of Literature Metrology (http://biblimetric.com).
Results: A total of 409 eligible records on ovarian endometriosis were identified and included in the analysis. The most productive journal was FERTILITY AND STERILITY. Endometriosis was the most cited reference. The keywords were divided into seven clusters, including atypical endometriosis, laparoscopic cystectomy, angiogenesis, in situ hybridization, estrogen and progesterone receptor, microarray analysis, and treatment. As indicated by the analysis of trending topics, infertility has become a new research hotspot.
Conclusion: In our study, the main directions of ovarian endometriosis include pathogenesis and cancerization. In addition, infertility has received growing attention in recent years. A comprehensive analysis of the publications in this field could help us shape the direction of further research and provide new points of view for solutions to prominent women's health problems.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare (JMDH) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general. The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this. The JMDH is published as an open-access journal to allow this wide range of practical, patient relevant research to be immediately available to practitioners who can access and use it immediately upon publication.
