Abstract：OBJECTIVE To visually analyze the status quo and hot spots of school public health research in China from 2010 to 2024 by using CiteSpace software,draw the knowledge map,and propose the frontier trend of school public health research,so as to provide data support for promoting the improvement of theoretical system and deepening of empirical research in this field.METHODS In databases such as CNKI,Wanfang,and VIP,using the keywords"school health","school health and wellness",and"school public health",a total of 1 135 literatures published from January 1,2010 to October 31,2024 were retrieved.The CiteSpace software was used to visualize the number of published papers,research authors,institutional partnerships,keyword co-occurrence,clustering,timeline,and emergent analysis,and to draw a knowledge graph.RESULTS The annual number of published papers which were about Chinese school public health study from 2010 to 2024 was stable at about 50.The research team led by Ma Jun,Zhong Ya,Liu Zhongming,Lin Yinghe and other scholars was prominent,forming a cooperation model of"universities as the main,and health administration departments as the auxiliary".The research focuses on five areas:students'health status,school health management,health education,infectious disease prevention and control and health personnel.CONCLUSION The research on school public health is still in the development stage,and future research frontiers and development directions should focus on the overall structure of school public health,the effectiveness of school health management,the change of students'physical fitness,and the allocation of health personnel,so as to promote the further development of research and practice in this field.
