基于Web of Science的住院老年人衰弱的可视化分析

Visual Analysis of Frailty in Hospitalized Elderly Based on Web of Science

目的分析近十年老年住院患者衰弱领域的研究现状及研究热点。方法检索2012-2021年Web of Science数据库核心数据合集发表的老年住院患者衰弱相关研究,运用科学计量学工具VOSviewer、CiteSpace及Excel对发文量、基金、关键词等进行分析。结果共纳入文献518篇,发文量整体呈波动式增长。美国在该领域的研究处于领先地位,其发文数量、期刊分布及基金资助产出均排名前列。研究热点集中在衰弱流行病学调查、衰弱相关干预措施、衰弱的不良健康结局;衰弱的评估与筛查、肌少症与衰弱是近年来该领域的研究前沿。结论老年住院患者衰弱领域的研究仍处于发展阶段,选择适合、高效的衰弱评估工具意义非凡,我国在该领域的研究尚处于起步阶段其发文数量及质量有待提升。

Objective To analyze the research status and research hotspots of frailty in elderly inpatients in recent ten years.Methods The research on frailty of elderly inpatients published in the core data collection of Web of Science database from 2012 to 2021 was searched,and the scientometric tools VOSviewer,CiteSpace and Excel were used to analyze the number of publications,funds and keywords.Results A total of 518 articles were included,and the overall volume of publications fluctuated.The United States was in a leading position in this field,and its number of publications,journal distribution and fund-supported output rank the top.The research hotspots focused on frailty epidemiological investigation,frailty-related interventions,and frailty adverse health outcomes.Frailty assessment and screening,sarcopenia and frailty were the research frontiers in this field in recent years.Conclusion The research in the field of frailty in elderly inpatients is still in the development stage.It is of great significance to select suitable and efficient frailty assessment tools.The research in this field in China is still in its infancy,and the quantity and quality of its publications need to be improved.
