Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology
The Official Journal of The EAGEN – European Association for Gastroenterology, Endoscopy & NutritionEach topic-based issue of Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology provides a comprehensive review of current clinical practice and thinking within the specialty of gastroenterology.The journal's core content consists of commissioned chapters written by an international team of practising clinicians, with the Guest Editors for each topic-based issue drawn from a pool of renowned experts and opinion leaders. In addition, the journal is now opening a selective route for unsolicited review submissions, intended to complement rather than replace its commissioned model. Reference is made to:The latest original research Cochrane Reviews Audits and confidential enquiries National and international conferences National and international guidelines Personal communicationsAll published articles take the form of practical, evidence-based reviews that seek to address key clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management.Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach that focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known. Management will be described in practical terms so that it can be applied to the individual patient.The journal's objective is to provide a continuous update for the busy clinician and researcher through a curated mix of commissioned thematic reviews and selective unsolicited review content.Unsolicited submissions should align closely with the journal's clinical focus and may include state-of-the-art reviews, clinical updates, and other clearly defined review formats of high relevance to practice. All unsolicited submissions will be assessed through the standard editorial process for fit, quality, relevance, and integrity.- ISSN: 1521-6918

Trends in Anaesthesia and Critical Care
Please see the pre-January 2011 content on Current Anaesthesia & Critical Care .Trends in Anaesthesia and Critical Care is an international peer reviewed journal, which welcomes reviews, original research about airway management and respiratory medicine, short communications, case reports about novelties and defined learning points and letters to the editor in anaesthesiology and critical care medicine on highly topical subjects and the latest breakthroughs in basic, clinical and translational research.The journal's objective is to provide a platform for discussion, analysis and debate of topics across a diverse, multidisciplinary audience of basic scientists and clinicians, who share the common goal of understanding clinical practice of anaesthesiology, critical care, aspects of related emergency medicine and resuscitation, as well as airway management and respiratory medicine with a view to new clinical practice. Communicating emerging concepts and ideas will be facilitated with short communications to progress the exciting and evolving field of anaesthesia and critical care. TACC seeks case report that describe novelties in the field arising from a clinical case, strong learning points out of the management of a clinical case, or how such case might have the potential to change clinical practice.Please note that the Guide for Authors has recently been updated (May 2026).- ISSN: 2210-8440
Journal of Biomedical Informatics
Endorsed by the American Medical Informatics AssociationThe Journal of Biomedical Informatics (JBI) is the premier methodology journal in the field of biomedical informatics. JBI publishes research on new methodologies and techniques that have general applicability and form the basis for the evolving science of biomedical informatics. Papers should focus on a real-world biomedical or clinical problem, develop a novel approach to address the problem, and evaluate its appropriateness in comparison to the current state-of-the-art (SoA) methods. Involvement of healthcare professionals in motivating the work and evaluation of results is expected.Focus Areas and Topics of InterestJBI seeks to publish papers that make a conceptual contribution to the field, typically by describing an innovation in methodology or technique or by discussing substantive generalizable lessons that have been learned in the context of an informatics project. When a methodological contribution has a theoretical basis, that theory is an appropriate emphasis for papers as well. Research papers may also present a novel "method of methods" explaining how to apply the existing methods to a space of biomedical problems that share unique characteristics influencing the choice of methods.JBI publishes papers on a wide range of informatics topics. However, across these topics, papers must build on deep understanding and utilization of medical domain knowledge and should consider pragmatic translation for clinical care or applications. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) clinical decision support, patient safety, natural language processing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, knowledge representation for healthcare, translational bioinformatics, clinical research informatics, and clinical informatics. Additional considerations for papers in the areas of translational bioinformatics, machine learning, security and privacy are provided below. Irrespective of the topic, papers must focus on novel informatics methods and its comparison to the current approaches.Manuscrip... can be submitted in the following categories: original research, methodological review, commentaries, special communication, letters to the editor, book reviews, and editorials (see additional details on each of these categories below). Given the international readership of JBI, country-specific health systems or approaches will be considered only if they offer generalizable lessons that are relevant to the broader readership, regardless of their country, language, culture, or health system.Specific considerations for manuscripts in certain topical areas have also been provided in recent editorials.If you are considering an article with a focus on translational bioinformatics , please read this editorial. Biologic discoveries based on the use of routine informatics techniques may be important biologic contributions, but are not suitable for JBI. In addition, please note that JBI publishes bioinformatics papers only if they deal with issues in translational (human) science (e.g., translational bioinformatics papers).If you are considering an article describing a new machine learning approach, please read this editorial. Machine learning papers would be considered only if the methods that are introduced demonstrate substantial novelty and advancement beyond the current SoA and their evaluation is sound and includes an assessment of the potential of the method to be used in clinical practice. For example, submissions reporting publishing marginally SoA findings without an in-depth analysis or discussion of how the methods are potentially generalizable (or applicable in a wider setting) would not be considered. Novel and important clinical problems addressed by existing machine learning methods may warrant Special Communication papers if their discussion includes novel insights or lessons learned for future research in such domains.Authors considering an article on biomedical privacy and security, please read this editorial. To be considered, the privacy and security methods that are introduced should demonstrate substantial novelty and advancement beyond the SoA, should be specific to the biomedical informatics domain, and their practical application and/or likely real-world usefulness in the biomedical domain.Please note that papers related to signal processing, imaging, medical devices, or communication networks are outside the scope of the journal unless they combine knowledge-intensive approaches involving ontologies.Please also consult the editorial that explains where to direct Artificial Intelligence in Medicine-related manuscripts for peer review and possible publication, considering the different scope of the three Elsevier medical informatics journals: JBI, Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, and Intelligence-based Medicine.- ISSN: 1532-0464
