PANCREAS

Pancreas (ISSN 0885-3177) is a distinguished peer-reviewed journal published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins in the United States, serving as a premier venue for high-quality clinical and basic research dedicated to the pancreas. Appearing monthly, the journal is indexed in the Science Citation Index (SCI) and maintains a strong reputation within the academic community, although specific impact factor values and CAS journal rankings should be verified against the latest official data. Its scope comprehensively covers critical aspects of pancreatic medicine, including the pathophysiology of pancreatitis, the biology and treatment of pancreatic cancer, and pancreatic endocrinology, while accepting a diverse range of manuscript types such as original research articles, reviews, and case reports. As a subscription-based publication rather than an open-access journal, Pancreas offers a rigorous platform that is highly respected for its scientific standards, yet authors should be mindful of the competitive nature of its submission process and potentially extended peer-review timelines.
