Articles with research sponsorship were 734 （38.1%）, in which most subject discipline was geriatric and gerontology. Conclusions The development of geriatric medicine in China is rapid. The international scientific and technological cooperation is very extensive. It is important to further improve the world impact of geriatric medicine from China. The development of geriatric medicine in a large, cooperative, comprehensive, interdisciplinary, interagency direction, and the prospective, multicenter, cooperative study need to promote.
