The global share of corresponding/leading authors in neurology publications reveals a dominance of countries where local contribution is notably high. Russia and Lithuania lead with exceptional shares above 99%, followed by China at approximately 98.85%. A significant drop is observed beyond these top contributors, with Vietnam trailing at approximately 47.64%. Despite these differences, the general trend across countries indicates a consistent, though subtle, increase in local authorial participation prior to 2024.
Future trends to watch include:
- The potential for emerging scientific hubs in Asia to alter the distribution of contributions.
- Increased globalization, which may equilibrate the distribution by facilitating more collaborations.
- Initiatives to bridge gaps in underrepresented countries, which may enhance their share of leading authorship.
