Critically ill COVID-19 patients may exhibit various clinical symptoms of renal dysfunction including severe Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). Currently, there is a lack of bibliometric analyses on COVID-19-related AKI. The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the current research status and hot topics regarding COVID-19 AKI. The literature was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. Subsequently, we utilized Microsoft Excel, VOSviewer, Citespace, and Pajek software to revealed the current research status, emerging topics, and developmental trends pertaining to COVID-19 AKI. This study encompassed a total of 1507 studies on COVID-19 AKI. The United States, China, and Italy emerged as the leading three countries in terms of publication numbers, contributing 498 (33.05%), 229 (15.20%), and 140 (9.29%) studies, respectively. The three most active and influential institutions include Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan University and Harvard Medical School. Ronco C from Italy, holds the record for the highest number of publications, with a total of 15 papers authored. Cheng YC's work from China has garnered the highest number of citations, totaling 470 citations. The co-occurrence analysis of author keywords reveals that 'mortality', 'intensive care units', 'chronic kidney disease', 'nephrology', 'renal transplantation', 'acute respiratory distress syndrome', and 'risk factors' emerge as the primary areas of focus within the realm of COVID-19 AKI. In summary, this study analyzes the research trends in the field of COVID-19 AKI, providing a reference for further exploration and research on COVID-19 AKI mechanisms and treatment.
危重新冠肺炎患者可能表现出各种肾功能障碍的临床症状，包括严重急性肾损伤（AKI）。目前，关于 COVID-19 相关 AKI 的文献计量分析还很缺乏。本研究旨在提供 COVID-19 AKI 的当前研究现状和热点概述。文献从 Web of Science 核心合集（WoSCC）数据库中检索。随后，我们使用 Microsoft Excel、VOSviewer、Citespace 和 Pajek 软件，揭示了 COVID-19 AKI 的当前研究现状、新兴主题和发展趋势。本研究共纳入了 1507 项关于 COVID-19 AKI 的研究。在发表数量方面，美国、中国和意大利位列前三位，分别发表了 498 篇（33.05%）、229 篇（15.20%）和 140 篇（9.29%）。三个最活跃和最有影响力的机构包括华中科技大学、武汉大学和哈佛医学院。意大利的 Ronco C 拥有发表论文数量最多的记录，共有 15 篇论文。中国的 Cheng YC 的作品被引次数最多，共 470 次。作者关键词的共现分析显示，“死亡率”、“重症监护病房”、“慢性肾脏病”、“肾脏病学”、“肾移植”、“急性呼吸窘迫综合征”和“危险因素”是 COVID-19 AKI 的主要研究领域。总之，本研究分析了 COVID-19 AKI 领域的研究趋势，为进一步探索 COVID-19 AKI 机制和治疗提供了参考。
