Clinical Scorecard: An Overview of Global Neurosurgery Research in the United States: Identifying Gaps and Potential Areas for Growth
At a Glance
Category Detail
Condition Global Neurosurgery (GNS) - a field focused on addressing inequities in neurosurgical care globally. Key Mechanisms Focus on addressing inequities in neurosurgical care, training, and workforce distribution worldwide. Target Population Low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) and low-income countries (LIC). Care Setting Academic institutions and clinical partnerships.
Key Highlights
GNS emphasizes capacity building in regions with limited neurosurgical infrastructure. U.S. institutions increasingly engage in global neurosurgical development, such as [specific examples]. Mapping scholarly activity helps optimize training and strengthen research networks. Publications shape research priorities and inform policy related to health outcomes. Study evaluates U.S. contributions to GNS from 2014 to 2025. Guideline-Based Recommendations
