Traumatic brain injury, seizure monitoring, stroke, paediatric neurocritical care and disorders of consciousness were among the themes identified as foundational in the field. In contrast, seizure, EEG and epilepsy emerged as motor themes based on their higher centrality and density values. Several clinically important areas, including intracranial pressure monitoring, ethics and palliative care, appeared to be less central within the neurocritical care research landscape. Social structure analysis indicated that high\u2010income countries occupy more central positions in global neurocritical care research networks, while participation from low\u2010 and middle\u2010income countries remains comparatively limited.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>While seizure\u2010related research demonstrates strong thematic development, the broader integration of underrepresented areas, such as paediatric care, ethical decision\u2010making and intracranial pressure monitoring, could contribute to more balanced scientific and clinical progress in neurocritical care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Relevance to Clinical Practice<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Nurses and multidisciplinary ICU teams should prioritise underrepresented but clinically important areas of neurocritical care.
