In 2023, Canada's share of the world's top 10% cited publications in orthopedics and sports medicine was 12.37%. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 predict a stable share, remaining around 12.36% after a slight dip from 2023, indicating no significant year-on-year change. This stability suggests that Canada maintains a consistent influence in this field.
Future trends to watch for include potential influences of increased international collaborations, emerging technologies in orthopedics, and changing priorities in sports medicine research, all of which could impact citation patterns and Canada's role in the global research landscape.
