Aims and Scope

Aims of the Journal

Journal of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine (JCCM) aims to advance the field of cardiology by publishing high-quality, peer-reviewed research that contributes to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The journal serves as a global platform for cardiologists, researchers, and healthcare professionals to share innovations, clinical findings, and new therapeutic approaches in cardiovascular medicine.

The journal's core objectives include:

  • Promoting Cardiovascular Research: Disseminating original studies on cardiovascular physiology, pathology, and new therapeutic interventions.
  • Enhancing Clinical Cardiology Practices: Providing evidence-based guidelines for diagnosing and treating heart diseases.
  • Encouraging Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Integrating expertise from cardiology, internal medicine, radiology, and pharmacology.
  • Advancing Cardiovascular Imaging and Diagnostics: Highlighting innovations in echocardiography, MRI, CT, and angiography.
  • Supporting Preventive Cardiology: Addressing risk factors, lifestyle modifications, and public health strategies to reduce cardiovascular disease burden.
  • Bridging Research and Clinical Applications: Ensuring that novel discoveries translate into real-world healthcare improvements.

Scope of the Journal

JCCM covers a broad spectrum of topics in cardiology and cardiovascular medicine, including but not limited to:
