Overview

Top Research Topics at Coronary Artery Disease?

Internal medicine, Cardiology, Myocardial infarction, Coronary artery disease and Percutaneous coronary intervention are the subjects of interest in Coronary Artery Disease. It blends together research topics in Internal medicine and In patient. Coronary Artery Disease covers various topics on Cardiology such as Angioplasty, Angina, Revascularization, Ejection fraction and Coronary arteries.

Studies on Angioplasty discussed in it link to the field of Balloon. The study on Myocardial infarction presented in Coronary Artery Disease intersects with subjects under the field of Heart failure. While work presented in Coronary Artery Disease provided substantial information on Coronary artery disease, it also covered topics in Diabetes mellitus, Prospective cohort study and Radiology, Stenosis.

The Percutaneous coronary intervention works featured in Coronary Artery Disease incorporate elements from Stent, Surgery and Hazard ratio. The Stent research dealing mostly with Restenosis is the focus of it.

  • Internal medicine (74.06%)
  • Cardiology (63.34%)
  • Myocardial infarction (29.97%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • The right ventricle in pulmonary hypertension. (356 citations)
  • Drug-eluting stents: caution and concerns for long-term outcome. (212 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Coronary Artery Disease:

The published articles investigate areas of study like Internal medicine, Cardiology, Coronary artery disease, Myocardial infarction and Artery. The most cited articles focus on Internal medicine but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Diabetes mellitus and Endocrinology. The published articles explore research in Cardiology alongside concepts in Prospective cohort study and other areas of study in Predictive value of tests.

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Myocardial infarction
  • Surgery

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The topics of Internal medicine, Cardiology, Myocardial infarction, Percutaneous coronary intervention and Coronary artery disease are the focal point of discussions in the journal. Among the topics covered in the journal are Internal medicine and In patient. Artery, Revascularization and Angina are all disciplines of Cardiology that connect with topics in Text mining.

While Myocardial infarction is the focus of Coronary Artery Disease, it also provided insights into the studies of Randomized controlled trial, Incidence (epidemiology) and Heart failure. Coronary Artery Disease explores topics in Percutaneous coronary intervention which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Ejection fraction, Conventional PCI, Stent, Hazard ratio and Cohort.

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, 17.68% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 12.27% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 5.52% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 11.66% of all publications and 70.55% 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.

Educational and Career Pathways in Cardiology Research

As one can observe from the preceding sections, coronary artery disease research is a multi-layered and interdisciplinary field, pulling from the areas such as Internal Medicine, Cardiology, Radiology, Epidemiology, and Endocrinology. It requires a rigorous academic background and a deep understanding of various medical phenomena. Many of the most impactful researchers in this field are often highly trained, with advanced degrees and comprehensive medical experience. If you have an interest in entering this groundbreaking research area, obtaining a high-quality medical, nursing, or health science education serves as the first step. There are numerous academic programs available worldwide that offer coursework and research experiences to help you get started in this exciting field. For instance, if you are based in Montana or considering studying online, you could check out the best online nursing programs in Montana. Such programs typically offer a mixture of hands-on clinical experiences and coursework on foundational and advanced topics in health sciences. Keep in mind that a career in coronary artery disease research might also involve continued learning and engagement with the latest scientific discoveries. Many researchers often seek postdoctoral research opportunities or engage in fellowship programs in specific areas of cardiovascular health research for advanced, specialized training. Therefore, as part of your education and career planning, consider possible opportunities for postgraduate training and stay updated on the latest research and growth areas in the field of coronary artery disease and Cardiology.
