The share of scientific publications involving international collaboration in orthodontics in China has shown a gradual decline in recent years. By 2023, this share stood at approximately 15.37%. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 indicate a minor yet consistent year-on-year decrease, with values dropping from 15.23% in 2024 to 14.64% by 2028. This reflects an annual decrement of about 0.39% and a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -0.37% over the five years.
Future trends to monitor include the potential impacts of China's research policy changes and global collaboration dynamics in the scientific community, which may influence the trajectory of international collaborations in orthodontics beyond current forecasts.
