Cardiac Ischemia and Reperfusion

Cardiac Ischemia and Reperfusion is a research topic within Pathology and Forensic Medicine. Science Explorer counts 33k research works in it since 1950. 19.2% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers focuses on the pathophysiology, mechanisms, and therapeutic strategies related to myocardial reperfusion injury, including ischemic preconditioning, remote ischemic conditioning, oxidative stress, and the role of mitochondrial permeability transition pore. It also explores the involvement of various cell signaling pathways and reactive oxygen species in the context of cardioprotection and myocardial infarction.

How concentrated that is

The same countries as shares of everything the list above accounts for. A node where two countries do two thirds of the work and one spread evenly across twelve read alike as a ranking and not at all alike here.
