Background: This study aimed to comprehensively analyze research related to hypertension and atrial fibrillation, 2 common cardiovascular diseases with significant global public health implications, using bibliometric methods from 2003 to 2022. Methods: From the Web of Science Core Collection database, literature on the theme of hypertension and atrial fibrillation was retrieved. Subsequently, comprehensive bibliometric analyses were conducted across multiple dimensions utilizing software tools such as VOSviewer, Citespace, Pajek, Scimago Graphica, and ClusterProfiler. These analyses encompassed examinations of the literature according to country/region, institution, authors, journals, citation relationships, and keywords. Results: It revealed an increasing interest and shifting focus in research over the years. The analysis covered 7936 relevant publications, demonstrating a gradual rise in research activity regarding hypertension combined with atrial fibrillation over the past 2 decades, with a stable growth trend in research outcomes. Geographically, Europe and the Americas, particularly the United States, have shown the most active research in this field, while China has also gained importance in recent years. Regarding institutional contributions, internationally renowned institutions such as the University of Birmingham and the Mayo Clinic have emerged as core forces in this research direction. Additionally, Professor Lip Gregory, with his prolific research output, has stood out among numerous scholars. The American Journal of Cardiology has become a primary platform for publishing research related to hypertension and atrial fibrillation, highlighting its central role in advancing knowledge dissemination in this field. The research focus has shifted from exploring the pathophysiological mechanisms to investigating the treatment of complications and risk factors associated with hypertension and atrial fibrillation. Future research will focus on in-depth exploration of genetic and molecular mechanisms, causal relationship exploration through Mendelian randomization studies, and the application of machine learning techniques in prediction and treatment, aiming to promote the development of precision medicine for cardiovascular diseases. Conclusion: In conclusion, this study provides a comprehensive overview of the developmental trajectory of research on hypertension and atrial fibrillation, presenting novel insights into trends and future research directions, thus offering information support and guidance for research in this crucial field of cardiovascular medicine.
