Neurological Research

Top Research Topics at Neurological Research?

Neurological Research investigates studies in Internal medicine, Anesthesia, Surgery, Pathology and Endocrinology. Neurological Research explores Internal medicine concepts, specifically Stroke but expands to research in In patient. It focused on Anesthesia research but expanded to cover Ischemia.

Neurological Research facilitates discussions on Ischemia that incorporate concepts from other fields like Neuroprotection and Pharmacology. The Surgery study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Radiology. The majority of Radiology studies in the journal are focused on the subject of Magnetic resonance imaging.

The work on Pathology presented in the journal focuses on Immunohistochemistry in particular. Cerebral vasospasm is a key component of Vasospasm research discussed in it.

The objective of Neurological Research is to combine knowledge in the areas of Internal medicine, Stroke, Cardiology, In patient and Anesthesia. Topics in Internal medicine explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Gastroenterology and Endocrinology. Topics in Stroke were tackled in line with various other fields like Prospective cohort study, Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Atrial fibrillation.

Topics like Cerebral blood flow and Stenosis are tackled as part of the discussions on Cardiology. In addition to In patient, it tackled discussions on Disease. Discussions in Neurological Research are anchored in the subject of Anesthesia and the similar topic of Electrophysiology.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

• Anterolateral approach for subaxial vertebral artery decompression in the treatment of rotational occlusion syndrome: results of a personal series and technical note. (6 citations)
• Long noncoding RNA LIFR-AS1 suppresses proliferation, migration and invasion and promotes apoptosis through modulating miR-4262/NF-κB pathway in glioma (4 citations)
• Sumatriptan improves the locomotor activity and neuropathic pain by modulating neuroinflammation in rat model of spinal cord injury. (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.

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, 10.62% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 18.18% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 5.59% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 6.99% of all publications and 69.23% 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.

Further Studies and Career Opportunities in Neurology

A career in neurological research offers vast opportunities for researchers around the globe. It's a dynamic field of study with a focus on understanding, diagnosing and treating neurological disorders. Besides becoming a neurology researcher, there are several other career paths that one could embark on with knowledge in neurology, such as becoming a neurosurgeon, neurologist, neuropsychologist, or a speech pathologist.

Speech pathologists are health professionals educated to assess and treat individuals who have a communication disability. The role of a speech pathologist carries a lot of importance in neurological studies, considering that many neurological disorders can result in communication difficulties.

To become a speech pathologist, you should possess a Masters degree in Speech-Language Pathology, and meet the licensure requirements in your state. In specific states, like in West Virginia, becoming a speech pathologist would necessitate specialized requirements. To learn more about the requirements, you can visit this useful page for speech pathologist requirements in West Virginia.

In essence, the field of neurological research is broad and offers fruitful opportunities for anyone willing to step into the fascinating world of neuroscience. It offers diverse career paths and extensive research topics, pressing forward the frontiers of knowledge in treating and understanding neurological disorders.
