Dermatitis generally zeroes in on subjects such as Dermatology, Allergic contact dermatitis, Contact dermatitis, MEDLINE and Patch test. The Dermatology study tackling the subject of Atopic dermatitis is the focus of Dermatitis. It explores topics in Allergic contact dermatitis which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Methylchloroisothiazolinone and Benzalkonium chloride.

Contact dermatitis research presented in Dermatitis encompasses a variety of subjects, including Ingredient and Retrospective analysis. MEDLINE research in the journal involves the investigation of Family medicine studies, all of which are linked to disciplines such as Health care. The study of Internal medicine and how it intertwines with concepts under Gastroenterology were explored in the presented Patch testing research.

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, 27.33% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 41.28% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 5.50% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.18% of all publications and 33.03% 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.

Associated studies and developments in Dermatology

As well as the scope of this journal being broad, there are also related fields and corresponding publications that may prove useful for readers who wish to broaden their knowledge in Dermatology. One such field is Nursing, where advances in understanding and treating skin conditions are continuously being made. In necrotizing fasciitis for instance, a severe type of skin infection, advancements in nursing care have contributed substantially to improved patient outcomes.

In addition to this, there are a number of academies and institutions recognized for their outstanding programs in Dermatology-related fields. For example, some of the best nursing schools in Alaska offer comprehensive programs that cover Dermatology, which may be of interest to those who wish to extend their research or academic pursuits.

This reference to external resources does not detract from the rigor and relevance of the research presented in this journal, but rather expands the horizons for achieving a more rounded understanding of Dermatology and its related disciplines. It is with this holistic perspective in mind that we continue to support and publish high-quality, impactful research in the field of Dermatitis and beyond.
