Overview

Top Research Topics at European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery?

European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery focuses on Sports medicine, Surgery, Retrospective cohort study, Injury Severity Score and Internal medicine. Research in Sports medicine tackled falls within the umbrella of Physical therapy. Internal fixation, Intramedullary rod, Blunt, Fixation (surgical) and Complication are among the areas of Surgery tackled.

The research on Internal fixation discussed in European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery draws on the closely related field of Reduction (orthopedic surgery). European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery explores studies in Blunt as part of the wider topic of Radiology. Most of the works presented in it deals with Injury Severity Score but it intersects with the subject of Blunt trauma.

It connects the study in Internal medicine with the closely related area of Gastroenterology. While Medical emergency is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of Injury prevention and Occupational safety and health. The study on Injury prevention presented in it intersects with the topics under Suicide prevention.

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

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Radiology

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal is mainly concerned with subjects like Sports medicine, Surgery, Internal medicine, Retrospective cohort study and Emergency medicine. Some problems in Sports medicine that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Hip fracture, Incidence (epidemiology), Radiological weapon, General surgery and Cohort. Radiological weapon and Orthodontics are closely related fields of research discussed in it.

The journal encompasses presentations on Surgery, specifically Fixation (histology), Complication, Pelvis, Osteosynthesis and Trauma center. Propensity score matching and Mortality rate are Internal medicine topics of special interest in the journal. The concepts on Emergency medicine presented in it can also apply to other research fields, including Injury Severity Score, Epidemiology, Pandemic, Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and Major trauma.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Epidemiology of trauma presentations to a major trauma centre in the North West of England during the COVID-19 level 4 lockdown. (17 citations)
  • International cooperation group of emergency surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic. (14 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, 13.19% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 21.27% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.15% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 11.88% of all publications and 54.70% 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.
