The share of UK publications in the top-cited 10% for pulmonary and respiratory medicine is forecasted to slightly decline from 18.09% in 2024 to 18.08% by 2028. This stability follows a trend where the share stood at 18.10% in 2023. The year-on-year variation indicates minimal fluctuation, maintaining a consistent performance over the years.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of policy changes, funding variations, and international collaboration developments which could shift the UK's standing in global research impact. Advances in AI and data science could also play a significant role in the publication landscape.
