Abstrakt: Background: There is a significant global demand for precise diagnosis and effective treatment of IgA nephropathy (IgAN), with innate immunity, particularly the complement system, exerting a profound influence on its pathogenesis. Additionally, the gut-kidney axis pathway is vital in the emergence and development of IgAN.
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search in the Web of Science database, spanning from January 1, 2000 to December 18, 2023. The gathered literature underwent a visual examination through CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and Scimago Graphica to delve into authors, nations, organizations, key terms, and other pertinent elements.
Result: Between 2000 and 2023, a total of 720 publications were identified, out of which 436 publications underwent screening for highly relevant literature analysis. The average annual number of articles focusing on IgAN, innate immunity, and the gut-kidney axis is approximately 31, with an upward trend observed. In terms of research impact encompassing publication count and authorship, the United States emerged as the leading contributor. Prominent keywords included "complement", "activation", "microbe", "gut-kidney axis", "C4d deposition", "alternative pathway" and "B cells" along with other prospective hot topics.
Conclusion: The correlation between IgAN and innate immunity is a focal point in current scientific research. Recent literature underscores the significance of the gut-kidney axis, where intestinal microorganisms and metabolites may influence IgAN. The complement system, a key component of innate immunity, also has a crucial function.Advancements in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment hinge on unraveling this intricate relationship.
