Introduction

Researcher recognition in contemporary academia commonly incorporates both qualitative and quantitative indicators. Publication volume can provide evidence of sustained scholarly activity, while citation counts and h-index values offer measures of how research outputs have been referenced within the scholarly literature. Such indicators are most informative when interpreted in the context of disciplinary norms, research contribution, publication quality and the scope of an individual’s academic profile. [1]

Research Profile

The supplied research profile describes a scholar with a documented publication record and measurable citation impact. The reported total of 46 documents establishes the scale of the indexed publication portfolio, while 924 citations indicate that the associated research outputs have received substantial scholarly referencing. An h-index of 13 further indicates that at least 13 publications have reached a citation threshold of 13 or more, subject to the conventions and data coverage of the indexing source. [1]

Research Contributions

The supplied materials position the researcher within Health Sciences and provide a publication portfolio that can be evaluated through indexed scholarly output and citation activity. The available bibliometric record supports an assessment of sustained research participation and measurable academic visibility. A complete qualitative assessment of individual contributions would additionally require examination of authorship roles, research questions, methodological contributions, originality, collaboration patterns and the significance of individual publications.[3] [4]

Publications

The following bibliographic records were included in the supplied source material. DOI identifiers are linked to the corresponding DOI resolver where available.The supplied bibliographic records include several journal articles covering topics in biomaterials, clinical treatment, laser applications, nanomaterials and dermatological therapy. The publication record includes Hydrogel tissue expanders for stomatology. Part I. Methacrylate-based polymers, published in the Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine in 2017.

Research Impact

The supplied profile reports 924 citations across 46 documents, producing an average of approximately 20.1 citations per indexed document when the supplied totals are considered together. This ratio is a descriptive calculation rather than an independent bibliometric metric and should not be interpreted without considering publication age, field-specific citation practices and database coverage. The h-index of 13 provides an additional measure of the distribution of citations across the publication portfolio. [1]

Introduction

Research on population health in Indonesia requires consideration of demographic, socioeconomic, nutritional, geographic, and health-system factors. Rachmalina’s documented scholarly contributions address several of these dimensions through observational and population-oriented studies. Her work on child undernutrition, for example, considers variation across Indonesia’s districts, while other studies examine dietary practices among young children and factors associated with access to health care. [1] [2] [4] [6]

The available publication record also demonstrates collaborative research across related areas of medicine and public health. Her authorship on studies concerning child malnutrition, alcohol consumption, hemoglobin levels, and pregnancy complications illustrates an emphasis on identifying measurable health risks and disparities within the Indonesian population. [2] [3] [5] [6]

Research Profile

Rachmalina is associated with the National Research and Innovation Agency in Indonesia and is identified within the medicine subject area. The supplied bibliometric profile reports 12 indexed documents, 148 citations, and an h-index of 7 under Scopus Author ID 57202159129. These indicators provide a quantitative description of the indexed publication record, while the individual publications provide additional context concerning the themes and populations addressed by the research. [1]

  • Primary field: Medicine and public health.
  • Geographic focus: Indonesia and Indonesian population health.
  • Research themes: child nutrition, malnutrition, health disparities, maternal health, health-care access, dietary practices, alcohol consumption, and population health.
  • Reported Scopus documents: 12.

Research Contributions

A significant component of Rachmalina’s publication record concerns nutritional health among Indonesian children. The 2025 article Factors for minimum acceptable diet practice among 6–23-month-old children in rural and urban areas of Indonesia investigates factors associated with minimum acceptable diet practices among young children across rural and urban settings. The study was published in the Korean Journal of Family Medicine and includes Rachmalina among its contributors. [1]

Her work also includes research on child malnutrition during the COVID-19 pandemic. Published in Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology & Nutrition in 2022, the article addresses the implications of the pandemic for child nutritional conditions in Indonesia and contributes to the broader evidence base concerning vulnerable pediatric populations during periods of health-system disruption. [2]

[1] Beyond these numerical measures, the subject matter of the publications is relevant to public-health questions with direct implications for population-level health assessment. Research addressing child undernutrition across 514 districts, for example, contributes evidence concerning spatial and socioeconomic differences that may be relevant to nutritional planning and resource allocation. [4]

The range of topics represented in the cited publications also indicates interdisciplinary engagement. Nutritional epidemiology, maternal health, health-care accessibility, behavioral risk factors, and population-level biochemical characteristics appear within the documented record. [1] [3] [5] [6]
