Global trends and hotspots in robot-assisted arthroplasty: a CiteSpace-based bibliometric and visualized analysis.
Review in Journal of robotic surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.
Who cites it
8 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it.

Abstract
With the increasing integration of robotic technology into medical practice, robotic-assisted arthroplasty (RAA) has emerged as a significant research focus. This study employs CiteSpace, a bibliometric analysis tool, to systematically examine the current state and future directions of RAA research on a global scale. By retrieving relevant literature from the Web of Science Core Collection database spanning from 1997 to 2024, a total of 229 articles were identified for analysis. The findings indicate a steady rise in the number of publications within this field. China, the United States, and South Korea are the leading contributors, with the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital being the most prolific institution. Keyword clustering analysis reveals that key research areas include total hip arthroplasty, Markov decision analysis, total knee arthroplasty, robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty, diverse assistive techniques, patient-reported outcome differences, robot-assisted total hip arthroplasty, and learning curves. Emerging trends are primarily centered around system development, navigation technologies, manual implantation methods, functional outcomes, and ossification processes.
