Experimental Eye Research

Top Research Topics at Experimental Eye Research?

Experimental Eye Research focuses on Biochemistry, Retina, Cell biology, Retinal and Anatomy. In addition to Biochemistry research, Experimental Eye Research aims to explore topics under Molecular biology, Biophysics and Lens (anatomy). Biophysics research discussed connects with the study of Membrane.

The journal addresses concerns in Retina which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Pathology. The journal features Pathology research that overlaps with concepts in Cornea. Cornea research is concerned with Corneal epithelium in particular.

Experimental Eye Research explores topics in Cell biology which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Epithelium and Cell culture. The study of Anatomy encompasses disciplines such as Ophthalmology, as well as fields such as Surgery, all of which overlap with one another. Crystallin research presented is mostly focused on the subject of Lens protein.

Cell biology, Retinal, Ophthalmology, Retina and Cornea are the subjects of interest in Experimental Eye Research. The featured Cell biology studies mainly concentrate on Inflammation but also cover areas of interest in Cytokine and Pharmacology. Retinal and Macular degeneration are closely related fields of research discussed in Experimental Eye Research.

The research on Ophthalmology discussed in it draws on the closely related field of In vivo. Experimental Eye Research dives deep in exploring the relationship between the study of Retina and Pathology. The study on Cornea presented is investigated in conjunction with research in Stromal cell.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

• Connexin43 hemichannel block inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation in a human retinal explant model of diabetic retinopathy. (8 citations)
• N-retinylidene-N-retinylethanolamine adduct induces expression of chronic inflammation cytokines in retinal pigment epithelium cells. (7 citations)
• A tissue-engineered human trabecular meshwork hydrogel for advanced glaucoma disease modeling. (6 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.

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, 3.76% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 6.77% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 6.51% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 13.54% of all publications and 73.18% 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.
