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 2020 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 21.43% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 28.57% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 50.00% 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.

Nursing Research Trends in JSES Open Access

Another significant area of research that the JSES Open Access journal covers is Nursing Research. The interdisciplinary nature of nursing makes it a compelling field in healthcare, significantly impacting patient care and overall health services. The journal hosts an array of studies related to various aspects of nursing, including nursing science, clinical practice, healthcare management and leadership, and patient relationship management. In many cases, nursing research within JSES Open Access converges with topics already cited in the journal, such as Patient satisfaction and Orthopedic surgery. This intersectionality is crucial as it helps provide broader perspectives and practical insights into healthcare protocols and techniques. Moreover, nursing students and professionals looking to expand their learning can refer to these studies to understand the latest research trends, gain valuable knowledge, and drive their research or practice. Readers and researchers may also find valuable data on accredited nursing schools for further studies or references to enhance their understanding of the field, which they can find here. It is crucial to iterate that, as with other healthcare disciplines, the objective of nursing research in JSES Open Access is to ensure better patient care, improved healthcare services, and to foster a better understanding of various healthcare dynamics.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

For those interested in expanding their credentials beyond traditional medical school, there are several related online degrees and career pathways to consider. Many healthcare professionals begin their journey with programs like medical assistant to LPN pathways. These programs offer a practical route into nursing by building on foundational skills and accelerating licensure.

A strong foundation in the biological sciences is vital for aspiring medical professionals. Pursuing a BS in biology online allows students flexibility while gaining essential knowledge that supports various health science careers.

Nursing remains an in-demand sector, and obtaining an online ASN degree can open doors to bedside care or serve as a stepping stone to advanced nursing roles. Additionally, understanding nutrition is crucial for holistic patient care, which makes an online dietitian degree an excellent option for those interested in dietetics and health promotion.

Exploring these related programs can broaden career options in healthcare and complement the rigorous study of medicine in the USA.
