Abstract
Purpose: Frailty is common in surgical patients and is closely associated with postoperative outcomes.
Aims: This study employed bibliometric methods to summarize and analyze research related to frailty and surgery, comprehensively analyzing the research structure and providing visualized maps.
Methods: This study analyzed the volume of publications, countries, institutions, authors, journals, references, and keywords related to perioperative frailty in the Web of Science Core Collection from 1978 to 2024. Visual bibliometric analyses were conducted from multiple perspectives, including collaboration networks, citation analysis, and keyword clustering.
Results: From 1978 to 2024, 21,879 authors from 95 countries and regions published 4,119 papers on perioperative frailty in 973 journals worldwide. The United States has the most publications, while Italy has the highest degree of international collaboration. The University of California System has the highest number of publications. The University of Kansas Medical Center is the institution with the highest centrality. The top nine authors in terms of publication volume are all from the USA. Bowers Christian A. is the most prolific author. The Journal of Vascular Surgery is the journal with the most publications. Current research directions include preoperative risk assessment of frailty, the relationship between frailty and postoperative complications, elderly frailty, and the relationship between frailty and sarcopenia. Research hotspots include risk stratification, postoperative delirium, the elderly, and sarcopenia.
Conclusion: This study has identified the research hotspots and trends in perioperative frailty. Our findings will enable researchers to understand this field's knowledge structure better and identify future research directions.
目的目的：本研究采用文献计量学方法总结和分析与虚弱和外科手术相关的研究，全面分析研究结构并提供可视化地图：本研究分析了1978年至2024年科学网核心藏书中与围手术期虚弱相关的出版物数量、国家、机构、作者、期刊、参考文献和关键词。从合作网络、引文分析和关键词聚类等多个角度进行了可视化文献计量分析：从1978年到2024年，来自95个国家和地区的21879位作者在全球973种期刊上发表了4119篇关于围手术期虚弱的论文。美国发表的论文最多，而意大利的国际合作程度最高。加利福尼亚大学系统发表的论文数量最多。堪萨斯大学医学中心是中心地位最高的机构。论文发表量排名前九位的作者均来自美国。Bowers Christian A. 是最多产的作者。血管外科杂志》是发表论文最多的杂志。目前的研究方向包括虚弱的术前风险评估、虚弱与术后并发症的关系、老年虚弱以及虚弱与肌肉疏松症的关系。研究热点包括风险分层、术后谵妄、老年人和肌肉疏松症：本研究确定了围手术期虚弱的研究热点和趋势。我们的研究结果将有助于研究人员更好地了解这一领域的知识结构，并确定未来的研究方向。
期刊介绍：
Langenbeck''s Archives of Surgery aims to publish the best results in the field of clinical surgery and basic surgical research. The main focus is on providing the highest level of clinical research and clinically relevant basic research. The journal, published exclusively in English, will provide an international discussion forum for the controlled results of clinical surgery. The majority of published contributions will be original articles reporting on clinical data from general and visceral surgery, while endocrine surgery will also be covered. Papers on basic surgical principles from the fields of traumatology, vascular and thoracic surgery are also welcome. Evidence-based medicine is an important criterion for the acceptance of papers.
