The share of corresponding/leading authors in scientific publications related to orthopedics and sports medicine in India has remained remarkably stable from 2024 to 2028, marginally declining from 96.87% to 96.86%. Historical data up to 2023 indicate no significant deviation from the current forecast, maintaining a steady output over the years. This small change suggests a highly stable and possibly saturated position in terms of authorship roles.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in authorship dynamics due to evolving collaborative research models.
- The impact of increasing international collaborations and digital platforms on authorship shares.
- The influence of new government policies on scientific research and publication practices.
