    The American Journal of Preventive Medicine is the official journal of the American College of Preventive Medicine and the Association for Prevention Teaching and 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.

  • Atherosclerosis

    • ISSN: 0021-9150
    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:Pathophysi... 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.Preve... 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.Diagno... 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.Translation... 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.

  • Medical Hypotheses

    • ISSN: 0306-9877
    Medical Hypotheses is a forum for ideas in medicine and related biomedical sciences. It will publish interesting and important theoretical papers that foster the diversity and debate upon which the scientific process thrives. The Aims and Scope of Medical Hypotheses are no different now from what was proposed by the founder of the journal, the late Dr David Horrobin. In his introduction to the first issue of the Journal, he asks 'what sorts of papers will be published in Medical Hypotheses? and goes on to answer 'Medical Hypotheses will publish papers which describe theories, ideas which have a great deal of observational support and some hypotheses where experimental support is yet fragmentary'. (David F. Horrobin, Ideas in biomedical science: Reasons for the foundation of medical hypotheses, Medical Hypotheses, Volume 2, Issue 1, 1976, Pages 29-30). Medical Hypotheses was therefore launched, and still exists today, to give novel, radical new ideas and speculations in medicine open-minded consideration, opening the field to radical hypotheses which would be rejected by most conventional journals. Papers in Medical Hypotheses take a standard scientific form in terms of style, structure and referencing. The journal therefore constitutes a bridge between cutting-edge theory and the mainstream of medical and scientific communication, which ideas must eventually enter if they are to be critiqued and tested against observations.Submitt... manuscripts will be reviewed by the Editor and external reviewers to ensure their scientific merit. All reviewers will be fully aware of the Aims and Scope of the Journal and will be judging the premise, originality and plausibility of the hypotheses submitted. The journal publishes 12 issues a year, the publication frequency is monthly.Abstracting/... Medical Hypotheses is indexed and abstracted in: ADONIS, BIOSIS, Chemical Abstracts, Elsevier BIOBASE/Current Contents/Life Sciences, EMBASE Excerpta Medica, Index Medicus, Medical Documentation Service, Reference Update, Research Alert, Science Citation Index, SciSearch UMI (Microfilm), Russian Academy of Science.
