The aim of the journal is to expand the discussion of research in Rehabilitation, Gerontology, Physical therapy, Dementia and Internal medicine. In BMC Geriatrics, Psychological intervention, Nursing, Intervention (counseling), Randomized controlled trial and Cognition are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Rehabilitation research. The work on Randomized controlled trial addressed in the journal expands to the thematically related Clinical trial.
BMC Geriatrics facilitates discussions on Gerontology that incorporate concepts from other fields like Logistic regression, Cohort study, Quality of life (healthcare), Cross-sectional study and Activities of daily living. The work tackled in BMC Geriatrics goes beyond the discipline of Logistic regression as it also encompasses Odds ratio. Topics in Cohort study explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Prospective cohort study and Cohort.
The journal holds forums on Physical therapy that merges themes from other disciplines such as Injury prevention, Quality of life and Physical medicine and rehabilitation. The study on Dementia presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Psychiatry. It facilitated presentations on Internal medicine research, particularly Confidence interval, Retrospective cohort study, Incidence (epidemiology) and Disease.
The published articles facilitate discussions on Gerontology, Rehabilitation, Physical therapy, Activities of daily living and Dementia. The journal publications tackle studies in Prospective cohort study and the interrelated subject of Delirium to gain insights into Gerontology. The most cited papers facilitate discussions on Rehabilitation that incorporate concepts from other fields like Psychological intervention, Nursing, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Randomized controlled trial and Cognition.
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 BMC Geriatrics (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 BMC Geriatrics (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, 3.07% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 11.95% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.96% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.94% of all publications and 64.15% 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.
An integral topic frequently discussed in BMC Geriatrics is Nursing. The focus of these studies primarily lies in the elderly population and the distinct health issues they face that require specialized nursing care. The role of nursing in geriatrics often extends beyond the traditional realms of medicine, integrating environmental, psychological, and social factors to provide comprehensive care. Geriatric nursing research revolves around areas such as the study of diseases prevalent in older adults, palliative care, geriatric rehabilitation, and preventive healthcare measures. Various articles focus on the best practices and implementation of interventions to improve the quality of life of the aged. For many nurses, geriatric nursing involves additional legal or ethical responsibilities, for which additional training or certification may be necessary. Nursing professionals looking to transition to the area of geriatric care often need to get acquainted with state-specific regulations and guidelines. For instance, nurses in New Mexico must meet certain new mexico nursing license requirements to be eligible to practice. Understanding the nursing landscape in geriatrics can equip professionals to provide quality care, improve patient outcomes, and enhance the general health status of older adults. As the population continues to age, research in geriatric nursing will continue to be of significant importance.
