Unequal contributions in global allergy research: A comparative study of high-, low-, and middle-income countries
Systemic barriers, including high APCs numbers and underrepresentation on editorial boards, limit the contribution in global allergology. Addressing these disparities requires reducing financial obstacles, expanding capacity-building initiatives, and ensuring equitable editorial representation. Creating inclusive research ecosystems can enhance global knowledge dissemination and improve outcomes for populations disproportionately affected by allergic diseases.
