Methods: China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang, VIP, China Biology Medicine database, PubMed, and Web of Science core collection database were used as search sources from January 2004 to December 2024, and CiteSpace software was used for visual analysis and knowledge mapping. Results: A total of 2059 Chinese and 1678 foreign literatures were included. The number of publications showed a fluctuating upward trend, but the collaboration among authors was relatively loose. Negative psychology, such as depression and anxiety, as well as the quality of life of chronic kidney disease patients, were the main research hotspots. Conclusion: In the future, it is necessary to enhance cooperation and communication among researchers, continue to explore the mechanism of mental health, optimize research designs, innovate psychological nursing intervention measures, and focus on improving the psychological resilience and social support levels of patients.
