The journal focuses largely on the fields of Immunology, Virology, Malaria, Internal medicine and Microbiology. Research on Immunology presented in it focuses, in particular, on Helminths, Antigen, Helminthiasis, Schistosomiasis and Leishmaniasis. The journal connects research in Helminths with the related topic of Veterinary medicine.
More specifically, the research on Schistosomiasis in the journal is related to Schistosoma mansoni. Most of the works presented in it deals with Leishmaniasis but it intersects with the subject of Leishmania. While Virology is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Antibody and Serology.
Plasmodium falciparum, Chloroquine, Plasmodium vivax and Quinine are some of the study areas of Malaria discussed. Transactions of The Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene focuses on Internal medicine but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Gastroenterology and Surgery.
The journal publications are organized to address concerns in the fields of Immunology, Malaria, Virology, Plasmodium falciparum and Internal medicine. The studies tackled in the journal papers, which mainly focus on Immunology, apply to Epidemiology as well. The published papers address concerns in Malaria which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Pediatrics and Drug resistance.
The scientific interests tackled in the journal are Internal medicine, Environmental health, Tropical disease, Public health and Neglected tropical diseases. The journal explores research in Internal medicine alongside concepts in Dengue fever and other areas of study in Incidence (epidemiology). In the journal, Epidemiology and Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Environmental health research.
The studies tackled, which mainly focus on Epidemiology, apply to Pediatrics as well. The studies on Tropical disease discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Mycetoma and Global health. It facilitates discussions on Public health that incorporate concepts from other fields like Pandemic and Disease.
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 Transactions of The Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (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 Transactions of The Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (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, 6.32% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 26.59% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.29% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 12.70% of all publications and 46.43% 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.
