Abstract
Charles Yankah is presented for consideration in the context of the Best Research Article Award, with a research profile associated with cardiac surgery and an academic affiliation with Humboldt University in Germany. The supplied Scopus information records 97 documents, 2,601 citations, and an h-index of 28. Bibliometric indicators such as document counts, citations, and h-index are commonly used to describe aspects of scholarly visibility and citation activity, although they do not independently establish the scientific quality or significance of individual publications. [1] The award profile therefore combines the available quantitative record with consideration of research subject, publication activity, contribution, and documented scholarly impact.

Introduction
Cardiac surgery is a multidisciplinary field involving operative treatment of structural and acquired cardiovascular conditions, perioperative management, clinical decision-making, and continuing development of surgical techniques. Research in this area frequently connects clinical observations with biomedical science, technology, imaging, patient outcomes, and evidence-based treatment strategies. Publications in cardiovascular and surgical research may consequently involve multidisciplinary teams and diverse forms of scholarly output. [2] [3]
Research Profile
Charles Yankah is affiliated with Humboldt University, Germany, and is identified in the supplied record with the subject area of cardiac surgery. The Scopus author identifier associated with the profile is 6602125123. The reported record comprises 97 documents and 2,601 citations, with an h-index of 28. [1] Such indicators summarize selected aspects of the indexed publication record rather than providing a complete account of research quality, clinical relevance, or individual authorship contributions.
Research Contributions
The available information identifies cardiac surgery as the principal subject area for this profile. On that basis, the research record can be situated within a field where evidence generation may contribute to understanding surgical procedures, cardiovascular disease management, operative outcomes, and multidisciplinary clinical practice. Specific contributions should be attributed to individual publications after reviewing their study designs, datasets, findings, and authorship roles. [3]
Publications
The supplied Scopus record reports 97 documents for Charles Yankah. [5] A complete publication assessment would require examination of the individual records, including article titles, journals, publication dates, document types, co-authors, citation counts, and persistent identifiers such as Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs).
Research Impact
The supplied citation count of 2,601 and h-index of 28 describe measurable citation activity associated with the identified Scopus author profile. [1] Bibliometric indicators can be useful for contextualizing a research record, but they should be considered alongside the quality and relevance of individual studies, the characteristics of the research field, and the nature of the researcher’s contribution to collaborative publications. [3]
Award Suitability
The Best Research Article Award profile identifies Charles Yankah’s research area as cardiac surgery and records a substantial indexed publication and citation history. The supplied quantitative indicators provide contextual evidence for reviewing the researcher’s scholarly activity. [4] A formal award assessment should additionally examine the nominated article itself, including its originality, research methodology, significance of findings, evidence supporting the conclusions, publication venue, and the specific contribution of the nominee.
Conclusion
Charles Yankah’s supplied research profile is associated with Humboldt University in Germany and the subject area of cardiac surgery. The reported Scopus record contains 97 documents, 2,601 citations, and an h-index of 28. [1] These data establish a documented bibliometric basis for describing the research record, while article-level review remains necessary to evaluate the specific scholarly contribution submitted for the Best Research Article Award.
