The journal primarily tackles Neurology, Dementia, Disease, Internal medicine and Geriatric psychiatry. The Neurology study featured falls within the wider field of Neuroscience. Neuroscience works presented in Alzheimer's Research & Therapy have a specific focus on Hippocampus.
The research on Dementia tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Atrophy, Randomized controlled trial and Neuropsychology. Alzheimer's Research & Therapy explores topics in Disease which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Geriatrics gerontology and Clinical trial, Bioinformatics. The journal explores issues in Internal medicine which can be linked to other research areas like Endocrinology and Oncology.
Topics in Geriatric psychiatry were tackled in line with various other fields like Alternative medicine, Gerontology and Intensive care medicine. The Cognition works featured in it incorporate elements from Clinical psychology and Audiology. Research in the field of Pathology was used to conduct the presented Cerebrospinal fluid study.
The most cited articles focus largely on the fields of Disease, Neurology, Neuroscience, Dementia and Internal medicine. The journal articles address concerns in the field of Neurology by exploring it in line with topics in Cerebrospinal fluid which intersect with Amyloid subjects. The most cited publications explore topics in Dementia which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Psychiatry, Geriatric psychiatry, Epidemiology and Neuropsychology.
Alzheimer's Research & Therapy mostly deals with topics like Neurology, Dementia, Internal medicine, Disease and Cognitive decline. The concepts on Neurology presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Cerebrospinal fluid, Atrophy, Pathology, Neuropsychology and Biomarker (medicine). The journal holds forums on Dementia that merges themes from other disciplines such as Cohort study, Geriatric psychiatry, Randomized controlled trial, Hazard ratio and Apolipoprotein E.
The study of Placebo and how it intertwines with concepts under Clinical endpoint were explored in the presented Internal medicine research. Disease research featured in the journal incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Bioinformatics, Immunology, Allele, Genetic association and Computational biology. While Cognitive decline is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Longitudinal study, Cognition, Neuroscience, Neurodegeneration and Amyloid.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Alzheimer's Research & Therapy (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Alzheimer's Research & Therapy (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 0.56% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 28.49% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 11.73% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 24.58% of all publications and 35.20% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
Studying Alzheimer's and related dementia disorders is not only critical for societal health but could also lead to numerous career opportunities in diverse research disciplines. Those interested in this field might consider becoming a speech therapist, a career that often intersects with Alzheimer's research - particularly when studying disease impact on a patient's communication abilities.
If you're passionate about Alzheimer's research and looking to make a difference, it might be worthwhile to consider becoming a speech therapist. This multidisciplinary role involves working with patients struggling with communication and swallowing disorders frequently seen in Alzheimer's disease progression.
You can explore more about the prerequisites required, necessary education, and the potential job pathway related to this career in our comprehensive guide on how to be a speech therapist in Delaware. Remember, breakthroughs in Alzheimer's research often come from diverse fields, so no matter your chosen discipline, there's always a way to contribute to the fight against this devastating disease.
