AbstractThis study employs CiteSpace software to analyze the research status, hotspots, and trends of primary Sjogren syndrome (pSS). Relevant publications from 1999 to 2023 were searched in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) set, followed by generating a network map using CiteSpace software to identify top authors, institutions, countries, keywords, journals, references, and research trends. A total of 3564 valid articles were included in this study. The People Republic of China had the highest number of articles (n = 524), while the University of Bergen emerged as the institution with the highest publication count (n = 94). Mariette X was identified as the author with the most publications (n = 67), whereas Vitali C received recognition as the most cited author (n = 1706). Annals of Rheumatic Diseases stood out as the journal with the highest citation count (n = 2530). Notably, an article published in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases in 2017 garnered significant attention by being cited a remarkable 304 times. The bibliometric analysis reveals that key areas of research in pSS encompass investigating pathogenesis; advancing and applying targeted biological agents; and establishing treatment and diagnostic standards.Copyright © 2024 the Author(s).
