The association between periodontal disease and adverse pregnancy outcomes: a bibliometric analysis from 2000 to 2023.

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: Periodontal disease (PD) refers to a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting the supporting tissues of the teeth triggered by bacterial infection and is recognized to promote systemic inflammation, leading to dysfunction in specific organs. Adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs), including preterm birth, small for gestational age infants, gestational diabetes and preeclampsia, are linked to pregnancy complications. Recently, the correlation between periodontal disease and adverse pregnancy outcomes has garnered global attention. However, bibliometric studies in this area remain limited. This study aimed to visualize knowledge framework and research trends concerning the relationship between periodontal disease and adverse pregnancy outcomes from 2000 to 2023 through bibliometric approaches. Methods: On September 22, 2024, articles and reviews on the connection between periodontal disease and adverse pregnancy outcomes were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC). CiteSpace [6.3.R1 (64-bit) Advanced] was used to perform knowledge mapping and bibliometric studies. Results: Over the past 23 years, 932 articles from 73 countries were collected, with the U.S. contributing over one-third (355), followed by Brazil (85) and India (59). The literature in this field has experienced multiple growth phases since 2000, with particularly rapid growth observed after 2019. The University of North Carolina ( Conclusions: This first bibliometric and visual analysis of periodontal disease and adverse pregnancy outcomes offers a concise overview of the field and suggests future research should focus on risk factors, high-risk populations, oral microbiota, mechanisms, interventions, and international collaboration.
