Global Share of Corresponding/Leading Author in Scientific Publications in Endocrinology by Country

In 2024, the global share of corresponding/leading authors in scientific publications in endocrinology displays notable disparities among countries. China leads with a substantial margin, with countries like South Korea, Malta, and Ukraine closely following. Notably, the United States, despite its vast research output, ranks lower, which may reflect its collaborative international research dynamics. European countries such as Germany and the Netherlands show moderate leadership shares, while Scandinavian countries like Sweden and Norway have comparatively lower shares, indicating possible international collaboration tendencies.

Future trends to watch include the growing impact of international collaborations that might affect national leadership shares. Countries with emerging research capabilities such as India and Indonesia may see a rise in their share, driven by increasing investment in scientific infrastructure and talent development.
