NLRP3 and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis: As shown in Figure 7D, keywords such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (8.36, 2010–2018), podocyte function (3.19, 2013–2014), renal injury (3.17, 2014–2017), exacerbates proteinuria (3.53, 2018–2020), and reperfusion injury (2.96, 2018–2019), revealed that clarifying the etiology and pathogenesis of podocytopathies was the hotspot of autophagy research in podocytopathies over the past decade, while keywords such as therapeutic target (3.07, 2020–2022) and the NLRP3 inflammasome (2.82, 2020–2022) have become the focus of current research in this field.
