Overview

Top Research Topics at Experimental Cell Research?

The journal tackles a plethora of topics, such as Cell biology, Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Cell culture and Cell. The studies on Cell biology discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Cell cycle, Cellular differentiation and Cell growth. Cell growth study tackled is connected to the field of Cancer research.

The studies in Molecular biology featured incorporate elements of In vitro, DNA, DNA synthesis, Gene expression and RNA. The study on Biochemistry presented in the journal intersects with the topics under Biophysics. Experimental Cell Research connects the study in Biophysics with the closely related area of Anatomy.

The work on Cell culture tackled in Experimental Cell Research brings together disciplines like Endocrinology and Immunology. The journal focuses on Mitosis as well as the interrelated topic of Cell division.

  • Cell biology (38.66%)
  • Molecular biology (30.53%)
  • Biochemistry (24.40%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

Research areas of the most cited articles at Experimental Cell Research:

The most cited articles are organized to address concerns in the fields of Cell biology, Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Cell culture and Cell. The published papers are focused mainly on Cell biology, particularly Cytoplasm. The most cited articles focus on Molecular biology but sometimes tackle the closely related topic of Mitosis which is concerned with Cell division.

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Experimental Cell Research primarily tackles Cell biology, Cancer research, Apoptosis, Cell growth and Cell. Cell biology research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Autophagy and Cell type. Experimental Cell Research holds forums on Cancer research that merges themes from other disciplines such as Cancer, Metastasis, Gene knockdown, Downregulation and upregulation and In vivo.

In addition to In vivo research, it aims to explore topics under In vitro and Angiogenesis. The journal addresses concerns in Apoptosis which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Inflammation, Reactive oxygen species and Flow cytometry. The research on Cell growth tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Carcinogenesis and Cell culture, Cell migration.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • BAP1 antagonizes WWP1-mediated transcription factor KLF5 ubiquitination and inhibits autophagy to promote melanoma progression. (4 citations)
  • Lipid accumulation-induced hepatocyte senescence regulates the activation of hepatic stellate cells through the Nrf2-antioxidant response element pathway. (3 citations)
  • Downregulation of fascin in the first trimester placental villi is associated with early recurrent miscarriage. (3 citations)

Papers citation over time

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 Experimental Cell Research (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Zbigniew Darzynkiewicz (63 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Werner W. Franke (57 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Nils R. Ringertz (53 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Klaus Weber (43 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Tore Hultin (41 papers) absent at the last edition.

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 Experimental Cell Research (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Karolinska Institutet (638 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • National Institutes of Health (428 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • French Institute of Health and Medical Research (385 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Harvard University (293 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Centre national de la recherche scientifique (290 papers) absent at the last edition.

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.

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, 4.44% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 1.24% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 2.48% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 7.74% of all publications and 88.54% 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.
