Epidemiological longitudinal data show that dyslexia is highly prevalent, affecting 10-20% of the population regardless of gender. This paper aims to provide a detailed overview of research status and development characteristics of dyslexia from types of articles, years, countries, institutions, journals, author, author keywords and highly cited papers. A total of 9166 publications have been retrieved from the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) and Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) in the period of 2000-2021. USA, UK and Germany were the top three most productive countries in terms of number of publications. China, Israel and Japan led the Asia research of dyslexia.University of Oxford had the most publications and won the first place in terms of h-index. Dyslexia was the most productive journal in this field and Psychology was the most used subject category. Keywords analysis indicated that “developmental dyslexia”, “phonological awareness”, children and fMRI were still the main research topics. “Literacy”, “rapid automatized naming (RAN)” “assessment”, “intervention”, “meta-analysis”, “Chinese” “executive function” “morphological awareness”, “decoding”, “dyscalculia”, “EEG”, “Eye tracking”, “rhythm”, “bilingualism” and “functional connectivity” might become the new research hotspots.
