Top Research Topics at Current Allergy and Asthma Reports?

The journal was organized to reinforce research efforts on Allergy, Immunology, Asthma, Disease and Intensive care medicine. Issues in Allergy were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Dermatology and Atopic dermatitis. Immunology studies presented in Current Allergy and Asthma Reports focus on topics such as Immune system, Immunoglobulin E, Inflammation, Pathogenesis and Immunotherapy.

Specifically, studies on Innate immune system are prevalent in the Immune system works discussed. Topics in Asthma explored in Current Allergy and Asthma Reports were investigated in conjunction with research in Sensitization, Physical therapy, Airway and Environmental health. Current Allergy and Asthma Reports centers on topics in Food allergy, with a focus on Peanut allergy.

The published articles mainly tackle studies in Immunology, Allergy, Asthma, Disease and Immunoglobulin E. The studies on Allergy discussed at the most cited publications can also contribute to research in the domains of Dermatology and Atopic dermatitis. The Disease research tackled in the journal papers is interrelated with Intensive care medicine which concerns subjects like Chronic rhinosinusitis.

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

• Internal medicine
• Disease
• Gene

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal is mainly concerned with subjects like Allergy, Intensive care medicine, Immunology, Anaphylaxis and Epidemiology. The Allergy works featured in the journal incorporate elements from Mast cell, Antibiotics, Pathophysiology, Asthma and Drug. The studies in Intensive care medicine featured incorporate elements of Food allergy, Integrated care and Referral.

Immunology research presented in Current Allergy and Asthma Reports encompasses a variety of subjects, including Ingestion and Transplantation. Some problems in Anaphylaxis that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Epinephrine, Tryptase, Allergic reaction and Basophil activation. Current Allergy and Asthma Reports focuses on Epidemiology but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Disease and Outbreak.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

• Mast Cell-Specific MRGPRX2: a Key Modulator of Neuro-Immune Interaction in Allergic Diseases. (6 citations)
• Mechanisms of Allergen Immunotherapy in Allergic Rhinitis. (6 citations)
• The Role of Epigenetics in the Chronic Sinusitis with Nasal Polyp (4 citations)

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, 37.21% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.30% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.93% of all publications and 32.56% 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.
