Best Researcher Award
Balázs Rózsa
Semmelweis University, Hungary, Hungary
Balázs Rózsa is a researcher affiliated with Semmelweis University in Hungary, working in the health professions with a particular focus on transplantation surgery and perioperative outcomes.[1] He is considered here under the Best Researcher Award category of the International Academic Achievements & Awards event.
Abstract
This article presents an academic profile of Balázs Rózsa of Semmelweis University for the Best Researcher Award. His work spans kidney transplantation, including vascular anatomical variation in living donor procedures and rare complications after transplantation, as well as participation in large international cohort studies on postoperative outcomes. His bibliographic record shows ten indexed documents and 716 citations, much of which derives from collaborative international research.[1][2]
Keywords
Kidney transplantation, living donor surgery, vascular anatomy, postoperative mortality, hospital preparedness, COVID-19, health professions, clinical research.
Introduction
Research in transplantation and perioperative care depends on careful clinical observation and on multicentre collaboration. Balázs Rózsa contributes to this field from Semmelweis University, one of Hungary’s principal medical institutions. His Scopus author profile is classified under the health professions, reflecting an emphasis on clinical practice and patient outcomes.[1] Institutional information is also available through the Hungarian profile page associated with his name.[5]
Research Profile
According to Scopus, the researcher has published ten documents, which have received 716 citations in total, and holds an h-index of 4.[1] The citation total is notably high relative to the h-index, which is consistent with participation in a highly cited collaborative study. His ORCID record offers an additional identifier for verifying his scholarly output.[4]
Research Contributions
His contributions fall into three related areas:
- Living donor transplantation: a single-centre study describes vascular anatomical variations encountered in living donor kidney transplantation and their surgical relevance.[2]
- Transplant complications: a case report with literature review addresses graft arterial dissection and thrombosis in a recipient of a deceased donor kidney with undiagnosed fibromuscular dysplasia.[3]
- International outcome studies: participation in a pooled analysis of prospective international cohort studies on 30-day postoperative mortality and hospital preparedness during the COVID-19 pandemic.[1]
Publications
Selected publications indexed in Scopus and related databases include the following.
- “30-day postoperative mortality and the effects of hospital preparedness during the COVID-19 pandemic: a pooled analysis of prospective international cohort studies,” The Lancet Regional Health – Europe, 2026, open access, with Nepogodiev, Kamarajah, Bhangu, Ghosh, Glasbey and collaborators.
- “Vascular Anatomic Variations in Living Donor Kidney Transplantation: A Single Centre Experience,” Transplantation Proceedings.[2]
- “Graft Arterial Dissection and Thrombosis After Kidney Transplantation With Undiagnosed Fibromuscular Dysplasia From a Deceased Donor: Case Report and Review.”[3]
Research Impact
The 716 recorded citations indicate that the researcher’s work has been noticed in the wider clinical literature, particularly through international cohort research addressing postoperative mortality during a global health emergency.[1] The 2026 pooled analysis already shows early citation activity. Surgical and transplantation studies provide practice-oriented evidence on anatomical planning and complication recognition, which can inform clinical decision-making.[2][3]
Award Suitability
Under the Best Researcher Award category, the nominee’s record is relevant on several grounds: an indexed publication record with a substantial citation count, clinically focused research in transplantation, participation in international multicentre collaboration, and an affiliation with an established university.[1][5] His continuing activity, including work published in 2026, supports consideration for recognition at the International Academic Achievements & Awards event.
Conclusion
Balázs Rózsa’s profile combines clinical transplantation research with contributions to large-scale international studies of surgical outcomes. His documented output, citation record and institutional affiliation provide a reasonable basis for consideration as a nominee for the Best Researcher Award.[1]
