What the numbers say
Citation influence per paper has softened recently.
Field-weighted citation impact moved from 6.52 to 3.57. If you need high citedness for evaluation, consider this trend when choosing a venue. The share of top-10% cited papers moved from 43.2% to 38.0%. Expect a slightly lower chance of landing among the most-cited papers from this journal now. Liver Disease Diagnosis and Treatment rose from 3.5% to 10.2% of what the journal runs. Submitters working on liver disease diagnosis or treatment may find stronger topical fit at present. Recent titles increasingly carry steatotic · transthyretin · statin · cardiometabolic · cohort. If your title uses those emerging terms, your work may align with current editorial attention.
