Impact factor: 2.8

The Journal of Cardiopulmonary and Acute Care Heart & Lung: The Journal of Cardiopulmonary and Acute Care, the official publication of The American Association of Heart Failure Nurses, presents original, peer-reviewed articles on techniques, advances, investigations, and observations related to the care of patients with acute and critical illness and patients with chronic cardiac or pulmonary disorders. The Journal's acute care articles focus on the care of hospitalized patients, including those in the critical and acute care settings. Because most patients who are hospitalized in acute and critical care settings have chronic conditions, we are also interested in the chronically critically ill, the care of patients with chronic cardiopulmonary disorders, their rehabilitation, and disease prevention. The Journal's heart failure articles focus on all aspects of the care of patients with this condition. Manuscripts that are relevant to populations across the human lifespan are welcome. We are interested in publishing articles representing a broad range of science and clinical practice in a variety of settings as it pertains to our target population. Because health care and the health sciences are global, interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, and transdisciplinary, we encourage authors to submit manuscripts that reflect these perspectives. Many articles also provide nurses with a framework for applying research results in clinical practice. We publish original research, case reports, reviews, and observations that are on the cutting edge of science and clinical practice. Discussions of costs of care, patient education, and health policy are relevant to our focus. Reports of well-designed clinical trials and systematic reviews are especially welcome.

Impact factor: 3.5

Formerly Healthcare Infection Official Journal of the Australasian College for Infection Prevention and Control (ACIPC) The journal is a global platform for the publication of original knowledge that fundamentally advances the prevention and control of infection in human populations. Priority is given to original infection prevention research relevant to, or conducted in, healthcare settings (including hospitals, community-based healthcare and private healthcare), aged and residential care, education settings, child care, dentistry, correctional services, mental health and indigenous health and industry with implications for healthcare e.g. tattoo parlours. We are also interested in articles on the surveillance and epidemiology, outcomes and risk factors for infections acquired in settings just described, cost-effectiveness of infection prevention strategies and sociological aspects of infection prevention and control. We may consider public health-based research that focuses on infection prevention in human populations, including low and middle income contexts. All submissions must contribute new knowledge or advance debate on a relevant topic. The journal is quarterly and publishes research, reviews, concise communications, case reports, commentary, opinion pieces and other articles concerned with infection and disease affecting the health of an individual, organisation or population. Topics that are outside the scope of the journal include: treatment & /or management of infections (e.g. antimicrobial therapy for infection treatment) case studies unless primarily focused on the prevention and control of infection, with original features, and not reported elsewhere. evaluation and efficacy of vaccines the surveillance or reporting of infections that are not acquired in or associated with settings described earlier. unstructured reviews that do not focus on a specific question or topic of relevance to infection prevention and control articles on vaccination with a scope relating to public or population health, unless reporting on vaccination and prevention of infection within healthcare settings or presenting something new of interest to an international audience. articles related to antimicrobial stewardship unless it relates to infection or antimicrobial resistance outcomes in healthcare, aged care or similar settings. Articles related to various roles and antimicrobial stewardship (e.g. nursing, pharmacists) are better placed in discipline specific journals. articles where the primary focus is not prevention and/or control of infection. Infection, Disease & Health provides a platform for the publication and dissemination of original knowledge at the nexus of the areas infection, disease and health in a One Health context. One Health recognizes that the health of people is connected to the health of animals and the environment. The audience of the journal includes researchers, clinicians, nurses and midwives, health workers and public policy professionals concerned with infection, disease and health. Final decisions on scope are made by the Editor-in-Chief.

International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences

ISSN: 2214-1391

International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific open access journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal's high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context. The journal employs a double blind peer review process for all submissions and is working towards inclusion of the journal on the Thomson Reuters Journal Citation Reports.

International Journal of Gerontology

ISSN: 1873-9598

As of 1 January 2019 the journal has been transferred back to the journal owner, Taiwan Society of Geriatric Emergency and Critical Care Medicine.As the cruel circumstances, fighting against aging and pursuing better ways in caring elderly are pressing on, we founded Taiwan Society of Geriatric Emergency and Critical Medicine (TSGECM) in December 2004. We periodically hold seminars, lectures and conferences to discuss and collect significant or breaking results presenting in meetings of TSGECM. The International Journal of Gerontology (IJGE) was launched in 2007 for medical professionals and investigators from all corners of the world to show their achievement in studies of gerontology. The IJGE aims to explore and clarify the medical science and philosophy in geriatric fields, including those in the emergency and critical care medicine. The IJGE is determined not only to be a professional journal in gerontology, but also a leading source of information for the developing field of geriatric emergency and critical care medicine. It is a pioneer in Asia. Topics in the IJGE cover the advancement of diagnosis and management in urgent, serious and chronic intractable diseases in later life, preventive medicine, long-term care of disability, ethical issues in the diseased elderly and biochemistry, cell biology, endocrinology, molecular biology, pharmacology, physiology and protein chemistry involving diseases associated with age. We did not limit the territory to only critical or emergency condition inasmuch as chronic diseases are frequently brought about by inappropriate management of acute problems. The scientific information published here is grounded on clinical cases, statistic evidence of original studies, and accumulation of medical knowledge, humanistic ethics and basic researches. We are also interested in studies bridging the gap between basic and clinical aspects of geriatric diseases. In addition to Review and Original articles, Brief communications, Case reports, Medical images and Letters to the editor are also welcome. Publication Charges and Reprints The IJGE is an open access journal and is indexed in the SCIE since its first volume. It is also indexed in SCOPUS, Embase, ScienceDirect, CAB Abstract & Global Health and SIIC Data Bases.
