International research collaboration with high\u2010income countries (HICs), like the United States, can address these disparities by advancing global health knowledge. As such, the underlying objective was to define trends of collaborative otolaryngology publications among the United States and LICs, LMICs, UMICs, and other HICs as well as assess the global distribution of these publications by region.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Study Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>A retrospective database review.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Setting<\/jats:title><jats:p>Scopus.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A bibliometric analysis of 163 collaborative publications (2018\u20102024) across 9 prominent US otolaryngology journals was conducted.
