Overview

Top Research Topics at Pharmacogenomics Journal?

The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Internal medicine, Pharmacology, Pharmacogenetics, Genetics and Genotype. In addition to Internal medicine research, it aims to explore topics under Gastroenterology, Endocrinology, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Oncology. While Pharmacogenomics Journal focused on Oncology, it was also able to explore topics like Chemotherapy, Immunology, Hazard ratio, Colorectal cancer and Cohort.

Pharmacology study tackled is connected to the field of CYP2D6. Adverse effect, Pharmacogenomics, Bioinformatics and Intensive care medicine are some topics wherein Pharmacogenetics research discussed in it have an impact. Most of the Bioinformatics studies addressed also intersect with Drug development.

It concentrated on Genetics research, specifically Gene, Allele frequency, Haplotype, Genetic variation and Genetic association. Pharmacogenomics Journal features studies on Gene, including topics such as Gene expression. The in-depth study on Genotype also explores topics in the intersecting field of Allele.

  • Internal medicine (39.54%)
  • Pharmacology (26.46%)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Pharmacogenomics Journal:

The published articles focus on Pharmacology, Internal medicine, Pharmacogenetics, Genetics and Genotype. While Internal medicine is the focus of the most cited papers, it also provides insights into the studies of Gastroenterology, Endocrinology, Immunology and Oncology. The most cited publications explore research in Genotype alongside concepts in Allele and other areas of study in Genetic variation.

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The objective of Pharmacogenomics Journal is to combine knowledge in the areas of Internal medicine, Oncology, Genotype, Pharmacogenetics and Pharmacogenomics. Internal medicine research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Genotyping, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Gastroenterology and Polymorphism (computer science). Aside from discussions in Oncology, the journal also deals with the subject of Prostate cancer which intersects with Lower risk disciplines.

The research on Genotype featured in it combines topics in other fields like Irinotecan, Adverse effect and Chemotherapy. The study of CYP2C19 and how it intertwines with concepts under Clopidogrel, CYP2D6 and Allele were explored in the presented Pharmacogenetics research. Pharmacogenomics Journal focuses on Pharmacogenomics but sometimes tackles the closely related topic of MEDLINE which is concerned with Medical prescription.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Pharmacogenomics and COVID-19: clinical implications of human genome interactions with repurposed drugs. (6 citations)
  • Pediatric pharmacogenomics: challenges and opportunities: on behalf of the Sanford Children's Genomic Medicine Consortium. (6 citations)
  • Pharmacogenomics cascade testing (PhaCT): a novel approach for preemptive pharmacogenomics testing to optimize medication therapy (6 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 Pharmacogenomics Journal (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Julio Licinio (25 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Adrián LLerena (23 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous 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, 2.56% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 7.89% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 10.53% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 15.79% of all publications and 65.79% 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.
