■肌肉减少性肥胖(SO)是一种特征为肌肉减少症(肌肉质量和功能丧失)和肥胖共存的病症。这种情况已成为公共卫生问题,尤其是人口老龄化。尽管有大约30年的SO研究历史,从未对现有研究进行详细的定量分析。我们旨在使用文献计量分析来描绘SO研究的景观。
■我们于2023年1月15日搜索了WebofScience核心合集。包括以下文献计量指标:出版趋势,最有影响力的国家,最活跃的学科,生产机构,生产性期刊,多产和高度引用的作者,和高度引用的出版物。我们构建了共同作者网络来探索个人层面,机构层面,以及VOSviewer或Sci2软件中的国际级协作模式。此外,关键词共现网络由VOSviewer软件提取,并使用CiteSpace软件对关键词进行突发检测分析。
■共检索到2023篇原始文章进行数据分析。在过去十年中,出版物急剧增加。美国在SO上的出版物数量最多(n=904)。首尔国立大学医院是分析的2675个机构中最多产的机构(n=54)。至于期刊,临床营养学在SO上的出版物数量最多(n=75)。KimJH是最多产的作者(n=25),而CederholmT撰写了引用次数最多的出版物(9381次引用)。超过80个学科参与了SO研究,其中,“老年医学和老年学”是最活跃的学科。欧洲老年人肌肉减少症工作组(EWGSOP)的共识是引用最多的出版物(7209次引用)。此外,SO的热点已经从其生物学转移,患病率,以及其结果的风险因素,预后因素,并发症,和生活质量。它的关系也从SO和衰老之间演变为SO和其他疾病之间。
■我们的研究为SO研究提供了一个全面的景观,这可能有助于研究人员更好地识别该领域的关键信息和研究趋势。
UNASSIGNED: Sarcopenic obesity (SO) is a condition characterized by the coexistence of sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass and function) and obesity. This condition has emerged as a public health concern, particularly with the aging population. Despite an approximately 30-year history of SO research, detailed quantitative analysis of existing research was never undertaken. We aimed to depict the landscape of SO research using bibliometric analysis of literature.
UNASSIGNED: We searched the Web of Science Core Collection on January 15, 2023. The following bibliometric indicators were included: publication trend, the most influential country, the most active discipline, productive institutions, productive journals, prolific and highly cited authors, and highly cited publications. We constructed co-authorship network to explore individual-level, institutional-level, and international-level collaborative patterns in the VOSviewer or Sci2 software. Furthermore, keywords co-occurrence network was extracted by the VOSviewer software, and the burst-detection analysis of keywords was performed using the CiteSpace software.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 2023 original articles were retrieved for data analysis. The publications increased dramatically in the last decade. The United States had the highest number of publications on SO (n = 904). The Seoul National University Hospital was the most prolific institution (n = 54) among the 2675 institutions analyzed. As for journals, Clinical Nutrition had the highest number of publications on SO (n = 75). Kim JH was the most prolific author (n = 25), while Cederholm T authored the most cited publication (9381 citations). More than 80 disciplines were involved in SO research, of which, \"Geriatrics and Gerontology\" was the most activated discipline. The European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) consensus was the most cited publication (7209 citations). Moreover, the hotspots of SO have been shifting from its biology, prevalence, and risk factors to its outcomes, prognostic factors, complications, and quality of life. Its relationships also evolved from being between SO and aging to being between SO and other diseases.
UNASSIGNED: Our study provided a comprehensive landscape of SO research, which may help researchers better identify key information and research trends in this field.
