Artificial Organs

Top Research Topics at Artificial Organs?

Artificial Organs aims to foster the development of research in Internal medicine, Surgery, Cardiology, Biomedical engineering and Anesthesia. Many of the studies tackled connect Internal medicine with a similar field of study like Endocrinology. It connects the study in Surgery with the closely related area of Urology.

Studies on Cardiology discussed in Artificial Organs link to the field of Blood pressure. It holds forums on Biomedical engineering that merges themes from other disciplines such as Blood flow and Artificial heart. In the Anesthesia research discussed, Cardiopulmonary bypass and Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation are all tackled.

The Hemodialysis study featured in it draws connections with the study of Dialysis. The studies tackled, which mainly focus on Blood pump, apply to Impeller as well.

The published articles focus on Biomedical engineering, Internal medicine, Surgery, Cardiology and Hemodialysis. The Biomedical engineering research tackled in the journal articles is interrelated with Heart-Assist Devices which concerns subjects like Blood pump. While Surgery is the focus of the journal papers, it also provides insights into the studies of Anesthesia and Urology.

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

• Internal medicine
• Surgery
• Diabetes mellitus

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The objective of Artificial Organs is to combine knowledge in the areas of Internal medicine, Cardiology, Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, Ventricular assist device and Extracorporeal. The journal held discussions to help close the divide between two different fields of study: Internal medicine and In patient. The studies in Cardiology featured incorporate elements of Stroke and Thrombosis.

In addition to Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation research, it aims to explore topics under ARDS, Weaning, Oxygenator and Emergency medicine. The journal focuses on Extracorporeal but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Anesthesia and Life support. The main emphasis of it is the research on Anesthesia, emphasizing the topic of Cardiopulmonary bypass.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

• Continuous renal replacement therapy with the addition of CytoSorb ® cartridge in critically ill patients with COVID-19 plus acute kidney injury: a case-series. (16 citations)
• Outcome of acute respiratory distress syndrome requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in Covid-19 or influenza - a single-center registry study (10 citations)
• Role of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Critically Ill COVID-19 Patients and Predictors of Mortality. (9 citations)

Papers citation over time

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.

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, 10.51% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 6.52% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 4.35% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 23.48% of all publications and 65.65% 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.
