2015 Eberhard F. Mammen Award Announcements: Part I—Most Popular Articles

Eberhard F. Mammen (1930–2008).

Welcome to the latest of our Eberhard F. Mammen award announcements. As noted previously,[1] [2] [3] Thieme, the publisher of Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis, has created the “Eberhard F. Mammen Excellence in Thrombosis and Hemostasis Awards” in honor of Eberhard F. Mammen and in recognition of his contribution to this field and to the journal that he both founded and steered for more than three decades. These awards began in 2009, under two categories: “Most Popular Article Awards” and “Young Investigator Awards.” Current details and conditions of the award can be summarized as:

• Most Popular article awards: Awarded to the authors of the most popular articles published in Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis. The awards are determined by the Editor in Chief on the basis of user statistics from Thieme e-Journals from the preceding 2 years. Prefaces, Errata, Letters to the Editor, Editorials, and previous award winners are excluded from further consideration of these awards, which currently comprise two categories: one for “open access” articles and another for a “general category.” There are two major cash prizes of US$1,000 for each category. In addition, winners of the “general category” awards are granted “open access” status for these articles thereafter.

• Young Investigator awards: Best presentation or meeting abstract by a young investigator—as presented or delivered to an international or large regional meeting on a topic related to the fields of thrombosis and hemostasis, and whose subject matter is determined to be in the spirit of Dr. Mammen. Up to six cash prizes of US$1,000 in any year. There are some additional considerations and conditions for the award, and awardees are expected to prepare a review or other article related to the topic of their presentation for publication in Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis.

Further details of the awards and the award winners are posted online (http://www.thieme.com/sth), and previous award winner announcements are also available in print.[4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11]

It is, therefore, with great pleasure that we would like to announce the latest winners of the 2015 Eberhard F. Mammen awards for the most popular articles from Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis for the period of 2013 to 2014 inclusive. We will be announcing the young investigator awards related to meetings held in the recent past at a forthcoming opportunity.

2015 “Most Popular” Article Awards

As mentioned, the Most Popular article awards are given to the authors of the most popular articles published in Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis as determined on the basis of user statistics from the publisher of this journal and covering the preceding 2-year period. Thus, the 2015 “Most Popular” awards are granted to the most popular articles from 2013 to 2014 inclusive. Because of an increasing trend to publish in an open access mode, and due to ongoing presence of many of the previous “Most Popular” awardees (now also open access) on the top 100 listing of most popular, this may generate an inequitable advantage for these in terms of download statistics. Accordingly, the publisher of Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis has established a separate category of the award for “open access” articles, and the most popular articles are now listed in two separate tables. [Table 1] lists the top 25 downloaded nonopen access articles from Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis (2013 and 2014 inclusive), and thus eligible for the “general category” award.[12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [Table 2] lists the top 25 downloaded open access articles from Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis (2013 and 2014 inclusive), including previous winners of this award.[37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50] [51] [52] [53] [54] [55] [56] [57] [58] [59] [60] [61] As previously highlighted in these editorials,[9] [10] previous winners of the award are not eligible for another award for the same article; hence, many of the articles listed in [Table 2] do not qualify for an award in 2015. The notable exceptions are the other top-listed articles, the first two of which have, therefore, been granted the award,[41] [43] with both being published in 2013. The two top-listed articles[12] [13] in [Table 1] are winners of the 2015 Eberhard F. Mammen award for most popular article within the “general category”), both also being published in 2013. Accordingly, the 2015 Eberhard F. Mammen award winners for most popular article (2014/2014 inclusive) are as follows:

All the authors of these award winning articles were thrilled to hear that their articles had won an Eberhard F. Mammen most popular award, and provided the following additional responses:

From Dr. Victor Tapson ([Fig. 1]), Professor of Medicine at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center (Los Angeles, CA):

I was delighted to hear that my article ‘Thrombolytic therapy for acute pulmonary embolism’ had won an Eberhard Mammen Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis 2015 most popular article award. The issues surrounding thrombolytic therapy continue to be vexing to clinicians. Even 40 years after publication of Urokinase/Streptokinase Pulmonary Embolism (PE) Trials, the indications for systemic thrombolysis, particularly in submassive PE, remain cloudy. Although the largest study to date has indicated no clear mortality difference when thrombolytics are administered in submassive PE, a large meta-analysis subsequently suggested improved mortality in this group. Clearly, these patients still require careful analysis of their clinical data including assessment for bleeding risk. Recently, catheter-based therapy (with or without thrombolysis) has entered the clinical arena, offering more clinical options but requiring analysis of resources, interpretation of the available clinical data, and assessment of the individual patient. We do not yet have clear guidelines, but we are moving in a good direction. We are embarking on new trials in this field. Because of the acute nature of these patients, the dilemma of whether to proceed with thrombolysis remains of tremendous interest to clinicians. Dr. Eberhard Mammen went to medical school in Germany, intending to take over his father's family practice. Those of us in the field of venous thromboembolism are very fortunate that he ultimately became involved in research, in addition to medical education and clinical practice.

From Dr. James N. George ([Fig. 2]), George Lynn Cross Professor, Medicine University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (Oklahoma City, OK):

This project was part of Dr. Roseleen Charania's [[Fig. 3]] Hematology-Oncology fellowship effort. We have had a lot of experience with patients who were initially suspected to have thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) but subsequently were discovered to have another etiology for the microangiopathic hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia. There have been many different etiologies. Dr. Charania's goal was to describe how we evaluate these patients. She did a superb job organizing our experience and presenting the critical points for patient evaluations. This was a great clinical project for her. She and I both learned a lot.

From Dr. Elaine M. Hylek ([Fig. 4]), Director Thrombosis Clinic and Anticoagulation Service at Boston University Medical Center (Boston, MA):

When I learned that I had received this award, I could not believe it. It is a true honor, especially coming from this community. The world of thrombosis has grown increasingly complex from basic mechanisms and treatments to the varied clinical settings and high-risk patients. Understanding the risks and benefits and helping our patients and colleagues make the most informed decisions was the overarching aim of this article.

Dr. David Garcia ([Fig. 5]), Professor of Medicine, University of Washington (Seattle, Washington), provided the following commentary:

I am honored to receive one of the Eberhard Mammen Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis 2015 Most Popular Article Awards. In my position, I am often asked to write review papers and I do occasionally wonder how many people benefit from the effort it takes to complete such a manuscript. In this case, I had the help of a superb colleague, Dr. Cristhiam Rojas-Hernandez (now a member of the Section of Benign Hematology at MD Anderson Cancer Center) [[Fig. 6]]. We were fortunate to be invited to write this paper at a moment when there was a great deal of recently published, clinically actionable information available about the direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), and I am very pleased to know that many Seminars readers found our synthesis of the evidence to be useful.

Fig. 6 Dr. Cristhiam Rojas-Hernandez.

It is also interesting (as always) to reflect on some of the other most popular articles which relate to a variety of topics within the field of thrombosis and hemostasis. Of some continued interest, and analogous to previous years, is that many articles from previous most popular award listings appear yet again ([Table 2]), and this highlights their perpetuating interest to our readership.

I would like as always to thank not only all of the authors listed in [Tables 1] and [2] but also the contributing authors that did not manage to make these listings, as well as all the guest editors of issues recently published in Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis. I look forward to seeing future listings!
