Overview

Top Research Topics at Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology?

Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology investigates areas of study like Immunology, Neuroscience, Pharmacology, Neuroinflammation and Microglia. Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology investigates Immunology research which frequently intersects with Central nervous system. Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology addresses concerns in Neuroscience which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Disease, Neurodegeneration and Pharmacology toxicology.

The research on Pharmacology tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Neurotoxicity and Receptor. The studies on Microglia discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Proinflammatory cytokine and Cell biology. Signal transduction is a focus of the presented Cell biology works and it dives deep in Signal transduction.

The Immune system study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Virology.

  • Immunology (33.00%)
  • Neuroscience (20.66%)
  • Pharmacology (19.16%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • Microglia Biology in Health and Disease (407 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology:

The main points discussed in the journal articles deal with Immunology, Neuroscience, Neuroinflammation, Microglia and Immune system. The journal papers facilitate discussions on Immunology that incorporate concepts from other fields like Disease and Virology. The Microglia research presented in the most cited papers focuses mostly on Cell biology and, on occasion, topics in Molecular biology.

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

  • Gene

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology primarily focuses on research topics in Pharmacology, Immunology, Neuroinflammation, Cell biology and Pharmacology toxicology. Some problems in Pharmacology that were presented in Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology overlapped with concepts under Oxidative stress, Chronic pain, Microglia and In vivo. The journal features works in Immunology, more specifically Inflammation, Cytokine, Immune system and Chemokine, and explores their relation to disciplines like Context (language use).

The presented research on Neuroinflammation deals specifically with Neuroprotection but it also addresses topics in Central nervous system, Genetically modified mouse, MPTP, Dopaminergic and Neurodegeneration. The Central nervous system study featured falls within the larger field of Neuroscience. Topics in Cell biology were tackled in line with various other fields like Microvesicles, Neurite and Cell type.

  • Is COVID-19 Gender-sensitive? (11 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 Neuroimmune Pharmacology (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Howard E. Gendelman (43 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Linda Chang (34 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Shilpa Buch (28 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous 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 Journal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology (based on the number of publications) are:

  • National Institutes of Health (29 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Rush University Medical Center (25 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 3 more than at the previous 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, 2.41% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 29.63% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.88% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 17.28% of all publications and 43.21% 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.
