Global Mapping and Visualization Analysis of Almost Five Decades of Egg Freezing Research: Trends, Hotspots and Prospects.
Article in International journal of women's health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Egg freezing, also known as oocyte cryopreservation, has become an increasingly significant topic in reproductive medicine. A large number of articles have been published on egg freezing; however, there is still a lack of studies that use visualization methods for bibliometric analysis of relevant literature. This study aimed to explore the publication landscape and identify key trends, influential authors, institutions, and emerging topics in egg freezing research using bibliometric analysis. Methods: Publications related to egg freezing from 1979 to 2024 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. A bibliometric analysis was conducted using Excel 365, VOSviewer (version 1.6.20), CiteSpace (version 6.3.R1), and R 4.3.3 to map co-authorship networks, institutional collaborations, and keyword co-occurrence patterns. Results: A total of 1072 publications were identified, with an annual growth rate of 9.68%. The research was contributed by 4392 authors and originated from 1380 institutions in 59 countries. The United States leads with 337 publications accounting for 31.4%, followed by Italy and China. The Royal Women's Hospital in Australia was prominent institutional contributors. Oktay Kutluk. ranks first with 18 articles published and a 18 H-index. The leading journals included Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis provides valuable insights into the global trends and research hotspots in egg freezing. The research highlights a growing focus on the technological aspects of egg freezing. Moving forward, researchers should focus on the social aspects of egg freezing, such as public education and awareness regarding egg freezing options.
