Key result
Cardiorenal syndrome research shows steady publication growth since 2009, increasingly focused on mechanisms and cardiac management.
Why the study?
A comprehensive review of the overall landscape and future trends of cardiorenal syndrome-related research from a bibliometric perspective was needed.
This bibliometric analysis maps the global landscape and rapid growth of cardiorenal syndrome research, highlighting key contributors and predicting future research trends focused on pathophysiological mechanisms and novel pharmacotherapies.

Provides no immediate clinical guidance for cardiorenal syndrome; leaves open prospective validation of predicted hotspots in mechanisms and prognosis.
To comprehensively review cardiorenal syndrome (CRS)-related research, this study analyzes its whole landscape and future trends from a bibliometric perspective. Using "cardiorenal syndrome" as the key word, a representative dataset of CRS was constructed in the Web of Science Core Collection (Science Citation Index Expanded) database up to November 2023. VOSviewer (version 1.6.18) and R-Studio (version 1.4) were used to visualize CRS-related author and national collaboration networks, hotspot distribution clustering and historical citation networks. The annual number of publications shows an upward trend, especially since 2009. The United States is the most active country and closely cooperates with European countries. Cardiorenal Medicine is the journal that publishes the most CRS-related research. Urology & Nephrology and Cardiovascular System & Cardiology are the most prominent areas of CRS literature output. The leaders in CRS-related research are Ronco C from Italy and Mccullough PA, from the United States. Combined with keyword co-occurrence, theme evolution, and strategic distribution analysis, it was found that centering on the mechanism of CRS (cardiovascular lesions, venous congestion, and fibrosis), prognosis (transplantation, dialysis, hospitalization, mortality) and cardiac function management (b-type natriuretic peptide, diastolic dysfunction, left ventricular hypertrophy) is a possible research direction for a long time to come. Although CRS has a relatively short history, it has received a lot of attention and is currently enjoying a high level of overall acceptance. In conclusion, this study explores the major research areas, frontiers and trends in CRS, which are important for future research.

Sun et al. (2024) studied Cardiorenal syndrome (n=1,613). Bibliometric analysis was evaluated on Research trends, collaboration networks, and hotspot distribution clustering. Cardiorenal syndrome research has shown a significant upward trend in annual publications since 2009, with future hotspots likely centering on mechanisms, prognosis, and cardiac function management.
