Overview

Top Research Topics at European Heart Journal - Case Reports?

The aim of the journal is to expand the discussion of research in Internal medicine, Cardiology, Surgery, Heart failure and Myocardial infarction. In the Internal medicine research discussed, Chest pain, Ejection fraction, Acute coronary syndrome, Atrial fibrillation and Coronary artery disease are all tackled. Presentations on Cardiology include those discussing Cardiomyopathy, Percutaneous coronary intervention, Thrombus, Cardiogenic shock and Stenosis.

The research on Percutaneous coronary intervention discussed in it draws on the closely related field of Conventional PCI. The study on Thrombus presented in European Heart Journal - Case Reports intersects with subjects under the field of Thrombosis. The journal is focused mainly on Stenosis, particularly Aortic valve stenosis.

Percutaneous, Infective endocarditis, Complication, Aortic valve and Endocarditis are all subfields of Surgery research that were featured in it. Right coronary artery is a focus of the Myocardial infarction works in it.

European Heart Journal - Case Reports focuses largely on the fields of Internal medicine, Cardiology, Surgery, Heart failure and Myocardial infarction. The journal concentrated on Internal medicine research, specifically Chest pain, Thrombus, Ejection fraction, Coronary artery disease and Cardiogenic shock. The journal explores topics in Thrombus which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Thrombosis and Pulmonary embolism.

It explores research in Cardiology and the adjacent study of Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Specifically, studies on Ventricular assist device are prevalent in the Heart failure works discussed. The concepts on Myocardial infarction presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Coronary arteries and Artery.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • ST-segment elevation in patients presenting with COVID-19: case series (3 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, 27.19% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 11.75% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.62% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.14% of all publications and 64.49% 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.

Transition from Research to Practice: Real world applications of research

While academic research certainly enriches our understanding of heart disease and related concerns, it’s also crucial to consider how these insights translate into real-world clinical practice. The practical applications of research findings can directly impact healthcare professionals, like nurse practitioners, in their day-to-day medical encounters, potentially leading to improved patient outcomes.

For instance, research on Internal medicine provides valuable insights to nurse practitioners dealing with Cardiogenic shock or Acute coronary syndrome. They might employ this knowledge in diagnosing the condition and implementing effective treatment plans. Similarly, research on Surgery could help nurse practitioners prepare their patients better for the impact of surgical procedures and aftercare.

Essentially, the practical application of topics like Percutaneous coronary intervention, Thrombus, or Stenosis is as critical as the theoretical knowledge. These application-level understandings can particularly help nurse practitioners specialized in Cardiology or Surgery. For those aspiring to become nurse practitioners in Arizona, understanding these research findings and their practical applications is an integral part of their academic journey. To ensure adequate preparedness, individuals should familiarize themselves with the specific {anchor}nurse practitioner program requirements in Arizona.
