The data indicates that in 2023, China and Romania had the highest shares of corresponding/leading authorship in scientific publications in the fields of pathology and forensic medicine, with shares nearing 99%. Conversely, Iceland registered the lowest share, standing at approximately 36%. Countries like the United States and Germany, known for their advanced research infrastructures, recorded shares around the mid-90s and lower 90s, respectively. This pattern indicates a significant authorship presence from researchers based in high-performing and emerging regions.
Future trends to watch include:
- The evolving role of collaborative international research, which could influence authorship distributions.
- The impact of funding and policy changes aimed at promoting domestic research outputs in countries currently showing lower shares, potentially leading to shifts in publication dynamics.
- Technological advancements and increased accessibility to research resources could also alter authorship patterns across regions.
