目的 了解老年肌少性肥胖的研究现状，探究研究趋势，为有效防控肌少性肥胖提供研究依据。 方法 2022年11月，以Web of Science Core Collection为数据来源，利用CiteSpace 5.7.R5对2000-2022年间肌少性肥胖相关研究进行可视化分析，系统梳理研究热点及前沿。 结果 共纳入肌少性肥胖相关研究672篇，近10年发文量激增；国家和机构合作研究普遍，研究热点主要集中于肌少性肥胖的筛查和诊断、发病机制、不良结局和干预方面。 结论 肌少性肥胖越来越受到广泛关注，研究数量逐年增加;且国际合作增强。我国在肌少性肥胖领域研究尚处于初步探索阶段，未来可借鉴国际优秀研究经验深入研究。

Objective To explore the status quo and trend of senile sarcopenic obesity（SO）,so as to provide research basis for effective prevention and control of SO. Methods Using Web of Science Core Collection(WOSCC) as the data source,CiteSpace 5.7.R5 was used to visualize and analyze the researches related to SO from 2000 to 2022,and systematically sort out the research hotspots and frontiers. Results A total of 672 articles on SO were included,and the number of articles published in the past 10 years increased dramatically.National and institutional collaborative research was common,and the research hotspots mainly focused on screening and diagnosis of SO,pathogenesis,adverse outcomes and interventions. Conclusions SO has attracted increasing attention,with the research number increasing year by year and international cooperation strengthening.China is still in the preliminary exploration stage in this field.Excellent international research experience can be learned to further the study in this field.
