To systematically analyze the research hotspots, development trends and regional differences in the field of cognitive frailty of patients with chronic diseases at home and abroad from 2013 to 2025 through bibliometric methods, so as to provide directional guidance for future research.
Literature on the theme of cognitive frailty among patients with chronic diseases was collected from CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, and the Web of Science core collection, and a total of 691 articles(220 in Chinese and 471 in English) were visualized using CiteSpace and VOSviewer.
A total of 220 Chinese and 471 English articles were included. The annual number of publications on cognitive frailty among patients with chronic diseases globally showed an increasing trend. International research mainly focused on pathological mechanisms (such as blood-brain barrier injury, neuroinflammation-metabolic coupling mechanism) and digital health interventions (such as virtual reality training, artificial intelligence prediction model). However, domestic research focused on the early screening and risk assessment of community population and on the standardized management of patients with chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes (such as drug adjustment, follow-up management). The keyword burst showed that “physical activity” (English) and “influencing factor analysis” (Chinese) had emerged simultaneously since 2023, marking that intervention research had become a common focus. Compared with foreign countries, the analysis of the cooperation network between authors and institutions in China showed that the substantive cooperation between interdisciplinary and cross-team was weak.
Future research should align with international mechanistic explorations and local clinical practice needs, prioritizing breakthroughs in digital technology clinical translation and the establishment of interdisciplinary health management models. This method may provide a new way to delay cognitive frailty in patients with chronic diseases.
