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, 34.87% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 14.17% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 10.24% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 25.98% of all publications and 49.61% 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.

Historical Overview of Topics in Journal of Cardiology Cases

As part of its commitment to high-level academic research, the Journal of Cardiology Cases has steadily delved into various research topics over the years. In its early years, the focus was majorly on subjects like Internal Medicine, exploring conditions like Myocardial infarction, Artery, and Stenosis. As the journal evolved, it expanded its academic horizon to cover areas like Cardiology and Surgery. These new areas presented a more in-depth exploration into subjects like Percutaneous coronary intervention, Stent, and complications associated with Surgery. More recently, the journal has explored Radiology and Heart Failure, with a quite comprehensive look into topics like Intravascular ultrasound, Angiography, and Ejection fraction. Why the shifts in academic interest? The editors have highlighted some of the reasons behind these topic changes, citing efforts to stay abreast of global health trends, contribute to solving emerging health challenges, and collaborate with other stakeholders in the health sector. They aspire to continue providing quality academic content that contributes to advancements in global health. You can access more details on these topics by checking online LPN programs New York for an overview of the different health research areas. Shifting focus to match contemporaneous issues makes the Journal of Cardiology Cases a prominent platform for health researchers and practitioners alike. To continue supporting the academic health community, the journal is currently exploring new and controversial topics for its future publications, constantly revamping its academic focus to stay in line with global health needs.
