In 2024, Luxembourg leads with the highest share of scientific publications among the world's top 10% cited in epidemiology, followed closely by Slovakia and the UAE. Notably, larger countries like the United States and China are lower on the list, indicating that smaller nations with niche focuses may be achieving a higher impact relative to their size. Emerging economies such as Vietnam and South Africa also maintain notable positions, highlighting their growing influence in epidemiological research.
Future trends to watch include potential shifts as developing countries escalate their research capabilities. Increased collaborations and international partnerships may further alter the global research landscape, enhancing regional representation within top-cited works.
