including Molecular Interventions Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine (CRM) is an international, English-language, multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original laboratory and clinical investigations related to revascularization therapies in cardiovascular medicine. CRM publishes 12 regular print issues and a supplemental issue each year.The journal is indexed on Index Medicus and MEDLINE®/PubMed®.The journal's location in Washington, DC, gives it an advantage in reporting on regulatory issues as they pertain to interventional cardiology and structural heart disease. The journal is read by cardiologists, interventional cardiologists, structural heart interventionalists, vascular physicians, healthcare regulators, industry, fellows in training, and innovators around the globe.CRM is also the official journal of the Cardiovascular Research Technologies (CRT) meeting, a premier event that brings together about 3,000 interventional cardiologists annually to discuss cutting-edge research and innovations. Attendees are encouraged to submit papers based on abstracts, interesting cases, late-breaking trials, and innovations presented at the meeting that impact interventional cardiologists' practice. The journal structures its content to reflect topics based on each track of the CRT meeting: Complex Coronary, Valve and Structural, Endovascular, Imaging and Physiology, Atherosclerosis, Cardiogenic Shock, Technology and Innovation, Regulatory and Healthcare Policy, and Innovations.CRM publishes articles related to preclinical and clinical work, including pharmacological interventions, and restenosis management; and treatment, including experiments conducted in human subjects, laboratory animals, and in vitro. Specific areas of interest include percutaneous angioplasty in coronary and peripheral arteries, intervention in structural heart disease, cardiovascular surgery, congenital heart disease, coronary heart disease, genetics and translational science, health services and outcomes research, invasive imaging, regulatory and health policy, technology and innovation, and vascular medicine.The journal's nearest competitors are JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, and EuroIntervention.CRM will consider all articles describing clinical trials and translational research (i.e., those that unite the clinic with the laboratory). The journal publishes original articles, research letters, reviews, editorials, and special features. Original articles that address any aspect of cardiovascular revascularization or structural intervention are invited. Letters to the editor, trial design papers, and interesting images are encouraged. The journal's peer-review process is single-blind.- ISSN: 1553-8389
Addictive Behaviors
Addictive Behaviors is an international peer-reviewed journal publishing high quality human research on addictive behaviors and disorders since 1975. The journal accepts submissions of full-length papers and short communications on substance-related addictions such as the abuse of alcohol, drugs and nicotine, and behavioral addictions involving gambling and technology. We primarily publish behavioral and psychosocial research, but our articles span the fields of psychology, sociology, psychiatry, epidemiology, social policy, medicine, pharmacology and neuroscience. While theoretical orientations are diverse, the emphasis of the journal is primarily empirical. That is, sound experimental design combined with valid, reliable assessment and evaluation procedures are a requisite for acceptance. However, innovative and empirically oriented case studies that might encourage new lines of inquiry are accepted as well. Studies that clearly contribute to current knowledge of etiology, prevention, social policy or treatment are given priority. Scholarly commentaries on topical issues, systematic reviews, and mini reviews are encouraged. We especially welcome multimedia papers that incorporate video or audio components to better display methodology or findings.Studies can also be submitted to Addictive Behaviors' companion title, the open access journal Addictive Behaviors Reports, which has a particular interest in 'non-traditional', innovative and empirically-oriented research such as negative/null data papers, replication studies, case reports on novel treatments, and cross-cultural research.- ISSN: 0306-4603
Biomaterials
Biomaterials is an international journal covering the science and clinical application of biomaterials. A biomaterial is now defined as a substance that has been engineered to take a form which, alone or as part of a complex system, is used to direct, by control of interactions with components of living systems, the course of any therapeutic or diagnostic procedure. It is the aim of the journal to provide a peer-reviewed forum for the publication of original papers and authoritative review and opinion papers dealing with the most important issues facing the use of biomaterials in clinical practice. The scope of the journal covers the wide range of physical, biological and chemical sciences that underpin the design of biomaterials and the clinical disciplines in which they are used. These sciences include polymer synthesis and characterization, drug and gene vector design, the biology of the host response, immunology and toxicology and self assembly at the nanoscale. Clinical applications include the therapies of medical technology and regenerative medicine in all clinical disciplines, and diagnostic systems that reply on innovative contrast and sensing agents. The journal is relevant to areas such as cancer diagnosis and therapy, implantable devices, drug delivery systems, gene vectors, bionanotechnology and tissue engineering.Click here for New Editorial Instructions.- ISSN: 0142-9612
