The relationship between frailty and neoplasms has attracted increasing attention from researchers in recent years. This study aims to identify current research hotspots and status in this field through bibliometric and visualization analysis.
Literature on the relationship between frailty and neoplasms, meeting the inclusion criteria, was collected from the Core Collection. Bibliometric analysis and visualization were performed using WoS, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace.
Our study included 7410 documents on frailty and neoplasms, authored by 43,605 researchers from 9478 institutions across 115 countries, and published in 2067 journals. The USA emerged as the most productive and influential country in this field, with 3059 publications and 89,319 citations. The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and Mayo Clinic were recognized as the most productive institution and the institution with the highest citation count, respectively. The Journal of Geriatric Oncology was the leading publisher. Kirsten K Ness and James L Kirkland were identified as the most productive and most cited authors, respectively. Cluster analysis identified five key areas: body condition and nutrition, quality of life, frailty, mortality and care, and the elderly and frailty.
The relationship between frailty and neoplasms remains a contentious and frequently discussed topic. Our findings indicate that research primarily focuses on cancer, the elderly, clinical trials, adverse health outcomes, frailty assessment, and nutrition.
近年来，衰弱与肿瘤之间的关系引起了研究人员越来越多的关注。本研究旨在通过文献计量学和可视化分析，确定该领域的当前研究热点和现状。
从科睿唯安的核心合集（Core Collection）中收集符合纳入标准的衰弱与肿瘤关系相关文献，使用 WoS、VOSviewer 和 CiteSpace 进行文献计量学分析和可视化。
本研究共纳入了 7410 篇关于衰弱与肿瘤关系的文献，这些文献的作者来自 115 个国家的 9478 个机构，共计 43605 名研究人员，发表在 2067 种期刊上。美国是该领域最具生产力和影响力的国家，发表了 3059 篇文献，被引频次为 89319。德克萨斯大学 MD 安德森癌症中心和梅奥诊所分别被认为是最具生产力和被引频次最高的机构。《老年肿瘤学杂志》是该领域的主要出版商。Kirsten K Ness 和 James L Kirkland 分别被认为是最具生产力和最具影响力的作者。聚类分析确定了五个关键领域：身体状况和营养、生活质量、衰弱、死亡率和护理以及老年人和衰弱。
衰弱与肿瘤之间的关系仍然是一个有争议且经常讨论的话题。我们的研究结果表明，研究主要集中在癌症、老年人、临床试验、不良健康结局、衰弱评估和营养等方面。
