Research trajectory of the mechanism of preeclampsia: a scientometric perspective.
Article in Journal of health, population, and nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThis study aims to conduct a scientometric analysis on the research history and emerging trends of the pathogenesis of preeclampsia using CiteSpace and VOSviewer software. The goal is to provide guidance for future research and clinical practice.
methodsThe core collection database of Web of Science was searched for research literature on the mechanism of preeclampsia from January 1980 to March 2024. CiteSpace6. 1. R6, 5. 7. R5 (64-bit), and VOSviewer1.6.19 software were used for visual analysis, including networks of keywords, countries, authors, institutions, funds, and fields.
resultsA total of 4989 documents were analyzed in this study. The number of published articles has shown a consistent increase from 1990 to 2022, indicating that this topic remains a significant area of research. The countries, institutions, authors, journals, and fields that contributed the most articles include the USA, University of Mississippi, Lamarca, Babbette, Placenta, and the field of OBSTETRICS and GYNECOLOGY. Keyword clustering and emergence analysis identified 7 clusters, while clustering and emergence analysis of cited documents identified 14 clusters. These analyses revealed that current research on the mechanism of preeclampsia primarily focuses on placental ischemia and hypoxia, inflammatory response and immune disorders, angiogenic factor imbalance, abnormal epigenetic modifications, and intestinal flora imbalance.
conclusionsResearch on the mechanisms of preeclampsia is rapidly advancing. Given the presence of multiple mechanisms and pathways, further collaborative research is essential to guide clinical treatment effectively and enhance maternal and child outcomes.
