Journal Overview

The Journal of Cardiovascular Aging publishes clinical, translational, and basic science discoveries related to all aspects of aging and cardiovascular disease. In addition to cardiovascular aging, the journal also considers a broader range of studies addressing cardiovascular disease across the lifespan, including mechanisms, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.

All areas of basic and clinical science related to cardiovascular disease and aging are within scope. Representative topics include, but are not limited to: clinical trials, epidemiology, diet and lifestyle, treatment strategies, genetics, epigenetics, genomics, stem cells, immunology, inflammation, cell cycle regulation, senescence, signaling pathways, pharmacology, and precision medicine.

The journal's primary focus remains on publishing original research articles that provide novel insights into cardiovascular aging and cardiovascular disease. Well-designed studies that confirm or validate previous findings, provided they yield unequivocal results, are also welcome. The journal also publishes high-quality Review articles, Editorials, and Commentaries on timely and important topics of interest to the cardiovascular research and clinical communities.
