Abstract

Aim: Post-Traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is a prevalent cause of joint pain and limited movement, significantly lowering people's quality of life. In recent years, with the increase of traffic accidents and accidental injuries, the incidence of articular cartilage injury has increased, and the incidence of traumatic arthritis has greatly increased. This research aims to look into the current worldwide status and trends in this subject. Method: On the Science Citation Index-Expanded Web of Science, the publications about PTOA were searched from 1994 to 2021. The data sources were studied and indexed by the method of bibliometrics. The data sources were studied and indexed by bibliometrics. To visualise, VOS viewer and GraphPadPrism7 software conducted bibliographic coupling analysis, co-authorship analysis, co-citation analysis, co-occurrence analysis, and the analysis of publication trends in PTOA research. Result: A total of 2239 related publications were collected. Globally, the number of papers published each year and the relative research interests are increasing. The cumulative published number of PTOA research accords with Logistic growth model: f(x) =a/(1+eb-cx). The United States contributes the most to worldwide research, receives the most citations, has the highest H index, and has the highest total link strength(TLS). Most papers have been published in the journal Osteoarthritis and Cartilage. The University of Calgary is the institution that makes the greatest contribution. Studies can be divided into four clusters: Mechanism Research, Tissue Engineering, Clinical Study, and Epidemiology. The investment in clinical research is relatively small. Conclusion: The number of publications on PTOA is expected to rise in the coming years, based on current global trends. In this field, the USA Is the biggest contributor. Noteworthy are the latest hot spots, including "Inflammation", "Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction", "Mesenchymal Stem Cell" and "differentiation". Therefore, there will be more and more studies on the mechanism of PTOA, which may inspire new clinical treatments for osteoarthritis caused by trauma.
