- Abstract: BACKGROUND:There are still great controversies in the etiology,clinical manifestations,diagnosis and treatment of pigmented villonodular synovitis.Bibliometric and visualization studies on pigmented villonodular synovitis can clarify the research development context and point out the direction for future research.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the global research status,hotspot,and trend of pigmented villonodular synovitis.METHODS:All publications related to pigmented villonodular synovitis from 1995 to 2023 were retrieved from Web of Science and CNKI.Citespace and bibliometrics were used to analyze the clustering,co-occurrence,and emergent words of all articles.The Web of Science database adopts subject headings plus free words for retrieval,while the CNKI database retrieves through subject headings.Finally,986 English articles and 599 Chinese articles were included.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The United States has an absolute leading position in research in this field,ranking first in the number of published papers,H index,and cited times.China ranks the 4th in the total volume of published articles and 12th in the H index.The quality of published articles and international cooperation still need to be improved.(2)Cluster analysis of pigmented villonodular synovitis studies showed that the top five clusters were radiotherapy,soft tissue sarcoma,rheumatoid arthritis,magnetic resonance imaging,and diagnosis.(3)The key words that continued to emerge until 2023 were colony-stimulating factor 1,giant cell tumor of tendon sheath,case report,chromosome translocation,radiotherapy,expression,and kinase.(4)Based on keyword analysis and co-citation analysis,it is found that the research on the clinical characteristics of pigmented villonodular synovitis,the development of new colony-stimulating factor 1 inhibitors,and the application of colony-stimulating factor 1 inhibitors in the treatment process are current research hotspots.(5)Combining thematic evolution with the analysis of current research hotspots,based on clarifying the etiology,pathogenesis,and clinical characteristics of pigmented villonodular synovitis,improving the diagnostic accuracy of pigmented villonodular synovitis,enhancing the precision of treatment,and reducing the recurrence rate after treatment will be key issues that require focus in the future.
