Overview

Top Research Topics at Animal reproduction?

The journal primarily tackles Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Andrology, Animal science and Embryo. While the primary focus in the journal is Internal medicine, it also dissects topics surrounding Pregnancy and Fertility as a whole. Estrous cycle, Follicular phase, Ovulation, Estradiol benzoate and Follicle are some of the facets of Endocrinology tackled in it.

Follicular phase and Folliculogenesis are closely related fields of research discussed in it. It focuses on Andrology but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Oocyte, Cryopreservation and Anatomy. Animal reproduction explores the study of Oocyte to improve our understanding of the broader topic of Cell biology.

Topics in Animal science explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Seasonal breeder, Insemination and Artificial insemination. The research on Embryo tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of In vitro and Immunology. Topics in Sperm were tackled in line with various other fields like Motility and Human fertilization.

  • Internal medicine (35.26%)
  • Endocrinology (34.99%)
  • Andrology (33.98%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • Evaluation and classification of bovine embryos (84 citations)
  • Economic aspects of applying reproductive technologies to dairy herds (69 citations)
  • Prolongation of stallion sperm survival by centrifugation through coated silica colloids: a preliminary study (53 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Animal reproduction:

The most cited publications focus on Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Andrology, Follicular phase and Embryo. The published articles address concerns in Internal medicine which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Pregnancy and Cell biology. The most cited publications explore themes in Andrology like Sperm motility, Sperm and Semen and link them with other fields of study like Ascorbic acid.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Andrology, Semen, Animal science, Sperm and Pregnancy are among the topics commonly tackled in Animal reproduction. While work presented in Animal reproduction provided substantial information on Andrology, it also covered topics in Immunohistochemistry, Toll-like receptor and Artificial insemination. The journal is focused mainly on Animal science, particularly Estrous cycle.

In addition to Estrous cycle research, the journal aims to explore topics under Ovulation, Estrus synchronization, Follicle, Mating and Breed. Sperm research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Polymerase chain reaction, Messenger RNA and Semen collection. The work on Pregnancy tackled in it brings together disciplines like Innate immune system, Glandular epithelium, Endocrine system and Binary logistic regression analysis.

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.

Publication chance based on affiliation

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, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 34.38% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.38% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 9.38% of all publications and 46.88% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

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.

Returning Institution Index

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.

The experience to innovation index

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:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
