Journals in Cardiology and cardiovascular medicine

American Heart Journal

ISSN: 0002-8703
5 Year impact factor: 3.6
Impact factor: 3.7

The American Heart Journal will consider for publication suitable articles on topics pertaining to the broad discipline of cardiovascular disease. Our goal is to provide the reader primary investigation, scholarly review, and opinion concerning the practice of cardiovascular medicine. We especially encourage submission of 3 types of reports that are not frequently seen in cardiovascular journals: negative clinical studies, reports on study designs, and studies involving the organization of medical care. The Journal does not accept individual case reports or original articles involving bench laboratory or animal research.

It publishes articles in the areas of prevention research, teaching, practice and policy. Original research is published on interventions aimed at the prevention of chronic and acute disease and the promotion of individual and community health.Of particular emphasis are papers that address the primary and secondary prevention of important clinical, behavioral and public health issues such as injury and violence, infectious disease, women's health, smoking, sedentary behaviors and physical activity, nutrition, diabetes, obesity, and substance use disorders. Papers also address educational initiatives aimed at improving the ability of health professionals to provide effective clinical prevention and public health services. Papers on health services research pertinent to prevention and public health are also published. The journal also publishes official policy statements from the two co-sponsoring organizations, review articles, media reviews, and editorials. Finally, the journal periodically publishes supplements and special theme issues devoted to areas of current interest to the prevention community.For information on the American College of Preventive Medicine (ACPM) and the Association for Prevention Teaching and Research (APTR), visit their web sites at the following URLs: http://www.acpm.org/ and http://www.aptrweb.org

Annals of Epidemiology

ISSN: 1047-2797
5 Year impact factor: 4
Impact factor: 3.3

Sponsored by the American College of EpidemiologyAnnals of Epidemiology is devoted to epidemiologic research and methodological development. The journal emphasizes the application of epidemiologic methods to issues that affect the distribution and determinants of human illness in diverse contexts, and their impact on public health. Its primary focus is on chronic and acute conditions of diverse etiologies and of major importance to clinical medicine, public health, and health care delivery.Annals encourages the use of epidemiology in a multidisciplinary approach to understanding disease etiology. Annals accepts submissions in the following categories: Original research, Review articles, Editorials, Commentaries, Brief Communications, Letters to the Editor, and Protocols/Methods papers.The journal publishes topics including:Infectious and chronic diseasesEnvironmental healthPopulation based methods to describe health and disease and their determinantsNovel applications of epidemiologic methodsNovel data sources including registries, metadata, paradataAssessments of local and state public health data and programs using epidemiologic methodsUse of public health data and metrics to describe and assess equity in public health programsProtocols and methods, especially with novel study designs or analytic approachesFor more information concerning the American College of Epidemiology (ACE), please visit their home page at acepidemiology.org .

Annals of Thoracic Surgery Short Reports

ISSN: 2772-9931

Annals of Thoracic Surgery Short Reports ("Annals Short Reports") welcomes a wide range of short-form original research related to clinical advances, current surgical methods, controversial topics and techniques, case and image reports, for adult acquired and congenital cardiovascular disease, thoracic surgery, cardiothoracic transplantation, mechanical circulatory support, perioperative medicine, as well as education and training, with a special emphasis on digital media and supplemental content, designed for easy and open sharing of data, results, and content across our social media and other channels in coordination with our publisher, Elsevier.Annals Short Reports aims to attract sound science-emerging data, pilot studies, clinical trial protocol and design studies, new technologies, techniques, education curriculums, and methodology and case reports.

Atherosclerosis

ISSN: 0021-9150
5 Year impact factor: 5.3
Impact factor: 4.9

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) causes one third of all deaths worldwide and is a major threat to global health. Atherosclerosis aims to provide a comprehensive platform for researchers, clinicians and healthcare professionals to share the latest findings and advances in the field of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis covers a wide range of topics, including:Pathophysiology and Mechanisms: We explore the intricate cellular and molecular processes involved in atherogenesis, from the initial formation of fatty streaks to the development of complex plaques. We also welcome studies on cardiac biology and disease.Risk Factors: We consider manuscripts that examine both traditional and emerging risk factors for atherosclerosis, such as dyslipidaemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, thrombosis and genetic predisposition.Prevention of CVD: Since prevention will become a major focus in the future (see e.g. the European Cardiovascular Health Plan), an important focus will be on preventive strategies, including lifestyle modifications and pharmacological interventions.Diagnostics Techniques: We features articles on cutting-edge diagnostic techniques, ranging from invasive procedures such as selective coronary arteriography to non-invasive techniques such as blood biomarkers.Treatment Approaches: Atherosclerosis covers the latest developments in the treatment of atherosclerosis, including lipid-lowering therapies, anti-inflammatory treatments and novel targeted approaches aimed at modifying disease progression and improving clinical outcomes.Translational Research: We bridges the gap between basic science and clinical practice by highlighting translational studies that bring laboratory findings closer to practical applications in patient care.By fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange between researchers and clinicians, Atherosclerosis aims to accelerate progress in the understanding, prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis, ultimately improving the lives of the millions of people affected by this pervasive disease.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta: Bioenergetics

ISSN: 0005-2728
5 Year impact factor: 3.6
Impact factor: 3.4

BBA Bioenergetics covers the area of biological membranes involved in energy transfer and conversion. In particular, it focuses on elucidating molecular mechanisms and structure-function relationships of bioenergetic components of photosynthesis, mitochondrial and bacterial respiration, oxidative phosphorylation, and motility and transport, as well as their structural aspects. The journal spans applications of advanced biochemical and biophysical approaches, including spectroscopy, structural biology, and molecular modeling in these systems. Additionally, it addresses bioenergetic aspects of mitochondrial biology, including biomedical aspects of energy metabolism, also related to mitochondrial disorders and neurodegenerative diseases.Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta: Molecular Basis of Disease

ISSN: 0925-4439
5 Year impact factor: 5.5
Impact factor: 4.2

BBA Molecular Basis of Disease addresses the biochemistry and molecular genetics of disease processes and models of human disease. This journal covers aspects of aging, cancer, metabolic-, neurological-, and immunological-based disease. Manuscripts focused on using animal models to elucidate biochemical and mechanistic insight in each of these conditions, are particularly encouraged. Manuscripts should emphasize the underlying mechanisms of disease pathways and provide novel contributions to the understanding and/or treatment of these disorders. Highly descriptive and method development submissions may be declined without full review.Given the complex regulation of gene expression by a vast network of miRNA's, manuscripts describing the regulation of (disease-associated) genes by single miRNAs will only be considered if they provide genuine, novel insight in a disease mechanism. Further, studies restricted to a single cell line will not be considered unless they present truly novel insights.Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission.
