Abstract：Objective:To observe the knowledge structure and research hotspots of autophagy in the heart failure using bibliometric methods,in order to provide reference for future research.Methods:Literatures of autophagy in heart failure from 2013 to 2023 were retrieved from Web of Science(WOS) database.The bibliometric analysis was conducted using VOSviewer,CiteSpace and R package"bibliometrix".Results:A total of 1315 literatures were collected from 32 countries,mainly China and the United States.The number of literatures on autophagy heart failure had been increasing year by year. Among them,Fudan University,the Fourth Military Medical University,Wuhan University and Nanjing Medical University were the main research institutions.Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology was the most popular journal in the field,and Circulation Research was the most co-cited journal.A total of 7874 authors were involved in these literatures,the top 5 authors with the most published literatures were Ren J,Sadoshima J,Ge J,Wang X and Zhang Y. The most cited author was Sciarretta S. The main research topics in this field were the roles of autophagy in the pathogenesis and treatment strategies of heart failure."apoptosis""mitochondria""oxidative stress""ferroptosis""sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors(SGLT2 inhibitors)" were the main key word in the study.Conclusion:In recent 10 years,the research on autophagy in the field of heart failure showed an upward trend,and the research hotspots mainly focused on the pathogenesis and therapeutic potential of autophagy in heart failure.
