Overview

Top Research Topics at Journal of Gene Medicine?

Journal of Gene Medicine generally zeroes in on subjects such as Molecular biology, Genetic enhancement, Transfection, Gene delivery and Cancer research. The studies in Molecular biology featured incorporate elements of Gene expression, Transgene, Viral vector, Transduction (genetics) and In vivo. The work tackled in the journal goes beyond the discipline of Transgene as it also encompasses Regulation of gene expression.

Discussions in the journal are anchored in the subject of Viral vector and the similar topic of Vector (molecular biology). The journal focuses on In vivo as well as the interrelated topic of In vitro. The research on Genetic enhancement featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Plasmid, Adeno-associated virus, Immunology and Virology.

While work presented in Journal of Gene Medicine provided substantial information on Transfection, it also covered topics in Reporter gene, DNA and Cell biology. The concepts on Gene delivery presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Biophysics and Polyethylenimine. The journal addresses concerns in Cancer research which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Apoptosis, Gene knockdown and Cell growth.

  • Gene therapy clinical trials worldwide to 2012 - an update (632 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Journal of Gene Medicine:

The most cited publications explore disciplines such as Molecular biology, Genetic enhancement, Gene delivery, Transfection and Transgene. Plasmid, Gene expression, Reporter gene, Gene and In vivo are some topics wherein Molecular biology research discussed in the published articles has an impact. The journal papers focus on Genetic enhancement but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Adeno-associated virus, Virology, Immunology, Viral vector and Transduction (genetics).

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal mainly deals with areas of study such as Cancer research, Gene knockdown, Cell growth, Apoptosis and Internal medicine. Gene knockdown research presented in Journal of Gene Medicine encompasses a variety of subjects, including RNA, Antisense RNA, In vivo and Blot. Concepts in Transfection, as well as related topics in Adipose tissue, are covered in the RNA research presented in it.

The presented In vivo research focuses mostly on In vitro and, on occasion, topics in Mesenchymal stem cell. Cell growth is the main point of discussion in the journal but it also connects with fields such as

  • Gene silencing that connect with fields like Cell biology,
  • Cell migration and related Metastasis.. Topics in Apoptosis were tackled in line with various other fields like Interleukin, Molecular biology and Chondrocyte.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • COVID-19; Virology, Biology and Novel Laboratory Diagnosis. (17 citations)
  • Circ‐PRMT5 promotes breast cancer by the miR‐509‐3p/TCF7L2 axis activating the PI3K/AKT pathway (5 citations)
  • PD-L1 versus tumor mutation burden: Which is the better immunotherapy biomarker in advanced non-small cell lung cancer? (4 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 Gene Medicine (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Ernst Wagner (18 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Seppo Ylä-Herttuala (17 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Olivier Danos (16 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Ming Q. Wei (14 papers) absent at the last edition,

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, 7.69% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 2.08% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 21.88% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 9.38% of all publications and 66.67% 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.
