Current treatment strategies primarily involve therapeutic hypothermia (TH); however, its efficacy remains inconsistent. Research topics and trends in this area remain unclear as well. This study aimed to identify key research areas, collaboration networks, and emerging trends using bibliometric analysis tools.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A comprehensive analysis was conducted on 1,165 records from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. Various bibliometric techniques were employed, including coauthor analysis, co-occurrence analysis, co-citation analysis, reference clustering, and topic modeling, to visualize the knowledge structure and research dynamics in the HIE field.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The findings revealed extensive collaboration networks among authors, institutions, and countries, highlighting global efforts to address this critical neonatal condition.
