Call For Papers in Cardiovascular Science
We invite submissions that advance heart research, clinical cardiology, and translational cardiovascular medicine.
Journal Focus
The journal publishes research that improves diagnosis, treatment, and prevention across the cardiovascular continuum.
Clinical Cardiology
Interventional studies, coronary disease, heart failure management, and outcomes research.
Imaging and Diagnostics
Echocardiography, cardiac MRI, CT imaging, and advanced diagnostic workflows.
Electrophysiology
Arrhythmia management, device therapy, and rhythm monitoring.
Translational Science
Biomarkers, genomics, and regenerative approaches that connect bench and bedside.
Submissions should emphasize clinical relevance, methodological rigor, and measurable impact on cardiovascular outcomes.
Priority Research Areas
Submissions that address clinical impact and measurable outcomes are prioritized.
Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathy
Mechanisms, treatment optimization, and long term outcomes in diverse populations.
Coronary and Vascular Disease
Atherosclerosis, imaging biomarkers, and interventional outcomes.
Preventive Cardiology
Risk prediction, lifestyle interventions, and population health strategies.
Cardiac Surgery and Devices
Valve interventions, surgical outcomes, and device based therapies.
Emerging topics including digital cardiology, remote monitoring, and precision medicine are encouraged when studies demonstrate clinical translation.
Methodology Expectations
Clear reporting, transparent methods, and reproducible analysis strengthen clinical translation.
- Define primary and secondary outcomes with clear endpoints
- Describe patient selection, inclusion, and exclusion criteria
- Report effect sizes, confidence intervals, and missing data handling
- Include imaging protocols and device specifications when relevant
Manuscripts should describe intervention fidelity, adherence, and safety monitoring to support clinical adoption.
Clinical Translation
Submissions should explain how findings improve diagnosis, treatment, or prevention in real world cardiology practice.
Describe implementation pathways, clinical workflows, or decision support tools that help translate evidence into practice.
Studies that address health equity, access to care, and patient centered outcomes are encouraged when supported by rigorous methods.
Quality Expectations
High quality submissions provide clear methodology and transparent reporting of limitations.
- Describe specimen collection, follow up intervals, and outcome definitions
- Provide interobserver or validation evidence for imaging workflows
- Explain limitations in sample size or study design
- Report reproducibility checks for analytical pipelines
Clear limitation statements help reviewers and clinicians interpret applicability across patient populations.
Ethics and Transparency
All submissions require ethics approvals, consent statements, and data availability disclosures.
Disclose funding sources and conflicts of interest to support transparent interpretation of cardiovascular evidence.
Studies involving vulnerable populations should describe additional protections and justification for inclusion.
Clinical and Policy Impact
The journal prioritizes evidence that informs clinical decision making, guideline development, and population health strategy.
Describe the practice implications of your findings and identify the patient groups most likely to benefit. Clear clinical context helps reviewers evaluate translational value.
Submissions that bridge diagnostic innovation with measurable outcomes are especially encouraged, including real world evidence, pragmatic trials, and implementation studies.
Visibility and Reach
Open access publication ensures cardiovascular evidence is accessible to clinicians, researchers, and policy teams.
Global Access
Immediate access supports clinical teams and health systems worldwide.
Indexing Support
Structured metadata improves search visibility and citation tracking.
Clinical Relevance
Clear implications sections help evidence reach care pathways.
Rapid Availability
Online publication accelerates dissemination to stakeholders.
Authors can maximize visibility by using precise keywords, descriptive titles, and structured abstracts that highlight outcomes.
Article Types
We welcome original research, clinical trials, systematic reviews, meta analyses, brief reports, and methodological papers.
Neutral or negative results are welcome when methods are robust and outcomes are clearly reported.
Implementation studies that address real world adoption are valued when supported by rigorous data.
Submission Checklist
A complete submission package supports efficient peer review.
- Structured abstract with clear outcomes
