In 2023, Italy's share of scientific publications in Community and Home Care was in line with global competitiveness. The forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a decline, starting at 4.96% and decreasing to 4.47%, suggesting a year-on-year decrease and a consistent downtrend. This represents a significant concern as Italy's presence among top-cited works dwindles by an estimated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting diminishing influence and recognition in this field.
Future trends to watch for:
- Increased collaboration with international research bodies.
- Investment in research and development to improve publication impact.
- Emphasis on adopting innovative technologies and care models.
