Surgical Infections focuses on Surgery, Intensive care medicine, Internal medicine, Antibiotics and Surgical site infection. The work tackled in the journal goes beyond the discipline of Surgery as it also encompasses Incidence (epidemiology). It holds forums on Intensive care medicine that merges themes from other disciplines such as Pneumonia, Antimicrobial, MEDLINE and Sepsis.
It features studies on Pneumonia, including topics such as Ventilator-associated pneumonia. Surgical Infections focused on Internal medicine research but expanded to cover Gastroenterology. The works on Antibiotics deal in particular with Antibiotic prophylaxis.
The most cited publications aim to foster the development of research in Surgery, Intensive care medicine, MEDLINE, Internal medicine and Sepsis. The Surgery study tackled in the journal articles is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Antibiotics. The most cited papers hold forums on Intensive care medicine that merge themes from other disciplines such as Mortality rate, Epidemiology, Incidence (epidemiology) and Pneumonia.
Surgical Infections investigates studies in Surgery, Intensive care medicine, Internal medicine, Surgical site infection and Surgical site. The journal holds forums on Surgery that merges themes from other disciplines such as Antibiotic prophylaxis and Incidence (epidemiology). Surgical Infections explores issues in Intensive care medicine which can be linked to other research areas like MEDLINE, Sepsis, Antimicrobial, Cause of death and Burn injury.
While Sepsis is the key highlight in it, it also covered some subjects on Pneumonia and Intensive care unit. Internal medicine research presented in Surgical Infections encompasses a variety of subjects, including Gastroenterology and Bacteremia, Antibiotics. The studies on Surgical site infection discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Negative-pressure wound therapy, Colorectal surgery and General surgery.
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 Surgical Infections (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 Surgical Infections (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, 7.98% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 22.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 6.67% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 24.67% of all publications and 46.67% 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.
Research within the ambit of Surgical Infections forges ahead, but understanding its practical application and future direction can prove invaluable. It provides insights into the potential impact of these research findings on healthcare practices, specifically the management and prevention of surgical infections. Furthermore, it serves as a guide for newcomers into the field, such as students enrolled in Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) programs, particularly those aspiring to specialize in surgical care or infectious diseases.
To continue advancing the field of Surgical Infections, future research direction could benefit from a more multidisciplinary approach. This could include exploring unconventional research areas or integrating insights from adjacent disciplines. For instance, investigations related to the role of bacteria in surgical site infections could be expanded to include virology. Similarly, the research on sepsis could be extended to delve into the biochemical mechanisms of sepsis onset and progression. Along with the medical perspective, an increased emphasis on public health, epidemiology, and health economics could further enhance the comprehensiveness of the research within this journal.
Moreover, budding healthcare professionals, especially those currently in or considering enrolling in lpn programs in Minnesota, can gain significant insights from these research trends. It provides them a glimpse of the developing trajectory of clinical practice and the evolving challenges they may encounter in their future careers. Furthermore, it serves as a roadmap for identifying opportunities where they can contribute towards innovation in tackling surgical infections, underscoring the significance of research within their practical roles.
In summary, a constant understanding of the practical implications and future direction of research can substantively augment the value of the knowledge created, ensuring that it appropriately addresses real-world challenges and contributes to the continuous improvement of healthcare outcomes.
