Predicting the unseen: nutritional interventions as a key to combat frailty.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Frailty and malnutrition have emerged as critical public health issues amidst global population aging. Malnutrition not only significantly contributes to frailty but also intensifies its clinical symptoms, severely affecting the quality of life and health outcomes in older adults. Research in this field has accelerated in recent years; however, a comprehensive analysis of key research trends and hotspots remains absent. This study employs bibliometric methods to systematically analyze core themes and emerging research directions related to nutritional status and frailty in older adults, identifying potential research frontiers and guiding future development.
