Overview

Top Research Topics at Journal of Endocrinology?

The journal mostly deals with topics like Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hormone, Receptor and Prolactin. The Internal medicine study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Pregnancy. The Endocrinology research presented places emphasis on topics like Testosterone, Estrous cycle, Stimulation, Thyroid and Secretion.

Studies on Testosterone discussed in it link to the field of Androgen. Prolactin cell is part of Prolactin studies tackled in it. Gonadotropic cell and Follicle-stimulating hormone are all areas of Luteinizing hormone tackled in it.

  • Internal medicine (98.12%)
  • Endocrinology (97.13%)

The journal articles facilitate discussions on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hormone, Receptor and Insulin. The most cited publications feature Internal medicine research that overlaps with concepts in Fetus. The published articles connects research in Endocrinology with the related topics of Pregnancy.

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The discussions in the journal mainly cover the fields of Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Adipose tissue, Insulin resistance and Receptor. The journal focused on Internal medicine research but expanded to cover Diabetes mellitus. It focuses on Endocrinology as well as the interrelated topic of Agonist.

While Insulin resistance is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Protein kinase B and Downregulation and upregulation. Journal of Endocrinology explores issues in Receptor which can be linked to other research areas like Hypothalamus, Endogeny, Cell growth and Cell biology. Journal of Endocrinology explores research in Zebrafish and overlapping concepts in Energy homeostasis to expand the discourse in Leptin.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Gut microbiome, endocrine control of gut barrier function and metabolic diseases. (11 citations)
  • The gut microbiome, endocannabinoids and metabolic disorders (10 citations)
  • GH directly inhibits steatosis and liver injury in a sex-dependent and IGF1-independent manner. (5 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 Journal of Endocrinology (based on the number of publications) are:

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, 3.06% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 11.58% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 3.16% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 17.89% of all publications and 67.37% 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.

Connection Between Endocrinology and Practical Nursing

Endocrinology, which is a significant topic in the journal of Endocrinology and features heavily in its research themes, studies the glands and hormones of the body. This has several real-life applications, particularly in the field of practical nursing. Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) often assist in management of endocrine disorders like diabetes under the supervision of a registered nurse or physician. LPNs need a specialized skill set for endocrinology that includes understanding and managing hormone therapies, monitoring vitals, and providing patient education on lifestyle adjustments. For LPNs aiming to specialize in endocrine disorders, New Mexico in particular hosts several comprehensive LPN programs. Visit lpn programs new mexico for further information on training and qualifications in this area. Studying endocrinology at the practical nursing level not only leads to better patient outcomes, but also adds value to the discourse featured in the Journal of Endocrinology.
