Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness is mainly concerned with subjects like Medical emergency, Public health, Occupational safety and health, Emergency management and Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). While Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness focused on Medical emergency, it was also able to explore topics like Public health preparedness, Mass-casualty incident, Disaster medicine and Health care. The Health care study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Nursing.
Topics in Public health explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Natural disaster, Public relations and Environmental health. Injury prevention and Suicide prevention are some topics wherein Occupational safety and health research discussed in the journal have an impact. Suicide prevention research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Mental health and Human factors and ergonomics.
Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness facilitates discussions on Emergency management that incorporate concepts from other fields like Preparedness and Medical education. The research on Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) featured in Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness combines topics in other fields like 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak, Outbreak and Virology. The featured Pandemic study falls within the wider topic of Disease.
The published papers explore disciplines such as Medical emergency, Occupational safety and health, Suicide prevention, Public health and Health care. The journal papers with studies in Medical emergency featured incorporate elements of Preparedness, Mass-casualty incident, Disaster medicine and Emergency management. While the most cited articles mainly focused on Occupational safety and health studies, they also tackled the scientific discipline of interrelated fields such as
The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), Pandemic, Medical emergency, 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) research featured in the journal incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Demography, Outbreak, Family medicine and Environmental health. The studies on Pandemic discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Psychological intervention, Health care, MEDLINE, Government and Public health.
The concepts on Health care presented in it can also apply to other research fields, including Nursing and Personal protective equipment. Topics in Medical emergency were tackled in line with various other fields like Preparedness, Mass-casualty incident, Emergency department and Emergency management. Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness explores issues in Emergency management which can be linked to other research areas like Disaster medicine and Medical education.
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 Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness (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 Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness (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, 6.68% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 16.88% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 6.14% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 13.55% of all publications and 63.43% 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.
There are several career paths available to those interested in disaster medicine and public health preparedness, ranging from medical professionals to policy analysts, researchers, and educators. People in these fields often work closely with emergency responders, government agencies, public health professionals, and the general public to plan for and mitigate the impact of disasters on public health.
One possible pathway involves becoming a licensed healthcare professional such as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), who can play a crucial role in disaster response by providing mental health support to individuals impacted by a disaster. To explore this path further, individuals may wish to investigate the process of obtaining a counseling license. For instance, the process for getting a counseling license in Hawaii may provide valuable insights, as it combines mental health training with an understanding of local cultural and geographic factors that can influence health outcomes in a disaster context.
Additionally, careers in research, policy making, emergency response coordination, and academia also offer several opportunities to contribute to this crucial field. With disaster events predicted to increase in frequency and severity due to climate change and other factors, pursuing a career in disaster medicine and public health preparedness can be a rewarding pathway to make a significant and lasting impact on the health and well-being of communities.
