    AbstractPlatelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection therapy holds great promise in improving knee cartilage repair. This bibliometric analysis aimed to explore the research landscape in the application of PRP for knee osteoarthritis (KOA) over the last 15 years. All articles investigating PRP in the application of KOA were retrieved from the web of science core collection. Publications were analyzed using R software, VOS Viewer, CiteSpace, Microsoft Excel, and an online bibliometric platform (https://bibliometric.com/). A total of 815 articles were identified, 6 articles from 2010 had the highest average number of citations in the local database. Filardo G., Kon E., Cole B.J., Marcacci M., and Di Martino A. are the top 5 authors based on the H-index. The "American Journal Of Sports Medicine" is the most authoritative journal in the field of PRP application in KOA. The United States is the global leader in this field, with European countries playing a pivotal role in collaborative exchanges. Taipei Medical University is the most prolific institution and Shahid Beheshti University Medical Sciences in Iran the fastest-rising institution. The keywords "Hyaluronic Acid," "cartilage," "growth factors," "mesenchymal stem cells," "intra-articular injection," "pain," "inflammation," "double-blind," "management," "placebo," "stromal cells," "rheumatoid arthritis," and "pathology" appeared most frequently. "Exercise," "volume," and "physical-activity" are the latest hot topics. Future trends in this field include the standardization of injection components, injection sites, and injection methods, the modulation of useful or harmful growth factor receptor expression, sports management, and the validation of contraindications to PRP.Copyright © 2023 the Author(s).
