Sleep Medicine Clinics focuses on Sleep in non-human animals, Obstructive sleep apnea, Intensive care medicine, Psychiatry and Sleep disorder. The journal addresses concerns in Sleep in non-human animals which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Anesthesia, Physical therapy and Physical medicine and rehabilitation. It explores research in Obstructive sleep apnea and the adjacent study of Sleep apnea.
While work presented in Sleep Medicine Clinics provided substantial information on Intensive care medicine, it also covered topics in Disease and Noninvasive ventilation. Insomnia and Depression (differential diagnoses) are all topics related to Psychiatry research discussed. It explores issues in Insomnia which can be linked to other research areas like Cognition, Clinical psychology and Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia.
Aside from discussions in Sleep disorder, it also deals with the subject of Pediatrics which intersects with Restless legs syndrome disciplines. It centers on topics in Neuroscience, with a focus on Circadian rhythm. Circadian rhythm study tackled is connected to the field of Melatonin.
The journal articles facilitate discussions on Sleep in non-human animals, Psychiatry, Insomnia, Sleep disorder and Circadian rhythm. The journal papers focus on Sleep in non-human animals but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Developmental psychology, Autism, Cognition and Clinical psychology. The featured Insomnia research encompasses issues not only in the field but also those in the adjacent area of disciplines such as
The scientific interests tackled in Sleep Medicine Clinics are Sleep in non-human animals, Intensive care medicine, Obstructive sleep apnea, Positive airway pressure and Sleep medicine. The journal explores topics in Sleep in non-human animals which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Iron supplementation, Insomnia, Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Audiology. Some problems in Insomnia that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Cardiovascular health, Compliance (psychology) and Breathing.
Topics in Intensive care medicine were tackled in line with various other fields like Cognitive behavioral therapy, Treatment adherence and Cardiovascular prevention. The journal discusses concepts in Oral appliance under Obstructive sleep apnea and how they intertwine with disciplines like Compliance Monitoring. The research on Positive airway pressure featured in Sleep Medicine Clinics combines topics in other fields like Significant difference, Significant risk, Systematic review, Sleep apnea and Continuous positive airway pressure.
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 Sleep Medicine Clinics (based on the number of publications) are:
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 Sleep Medicine Clinics (based on the number of publications) are:
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.
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, 31.37% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 17.14% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 11.43% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 17.14% of all publications and 54.29% were from other institutions.
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.
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.
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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
If you find sleep medicine interesting, you might want to consider a career as a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP), an individual who provides care for patients with speech and language disorders often occurring from various sleep disorders or neurological issues affecting sleep pattern. A SLP position in the field of sleep medicine requires specific training and a unique focus within your studies. Apart from academic qualifications, specific licensing requirements need to be met for practicing in different states. For instance, if you intend to practice in Connecticut, certain pre-requisites must be fulfilled to secure a Connecticut SLP license. This includes a master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology, completion of a supervised professional experience, and passing the National Examination in Speech-Language Pathology. Make sure to understand and meet these state-specific requirements before pursuing your career. Alongside Speech-Language Pathologists, there are many other professionals involved in sleep medicine, such as Respiratory Therapists, Clinical Psychologists, and Neurologists. Each of these professions requires different paths for qualification and licensure, so be sure to research each pathway extensively before making your choice.

(2021)For students interested in expanding their medical knowledge beyond traditional study, there are several online degree options that complement a career in medicine. Programs like online DNP programs offer advanced nursing education without the heavy clinical hours, making them accessible for working professionals seeking leadership roles.
For those drawn to the administrative side of healthcare, pursuing a doctorate in healthcare administration online equips students with the skills to manage complex healthcare organizations and drive improvement in patient care systems.
Pharmacy is another allied field integral to medicine. Top-ranked best online pharmacy school programs prepare graduates for careers in pharmaceutical sciences and clinical pharmacy without the constraints of on-campus schedules.
Additionally, earning an online bachelor’s degree in exercise science provides a strong foundation in human physiology and fitness, supporting careers in rehabilitation, athletic training, and wellness—perfect complements to a broad medical education.
