Aim & Scope
The aim of the Journal of Transplantation Proceedings and Research is to provide a comprehensive platform for the exchange of knowledge and ideas among researchers, clinicians, and allied health professionals involved in the transplantation community. The journal publishes original research articles, review papers, case reports, and clinical studies spanning the entire spectrum of transplantation medicine.
Key areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Organ Transplantation: Investigations into the transplantation of solid organs such as kidney, liver, heart, lung, pancreas, and intestine. This encompasses research on surgical techniques, immunosuppressive therapies, organ preservation, and post-transplant care.
- Cellular and Tissue Transplantation: Studies focusing on cellular therapies, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine approaches for transplantation, including stem cell transplantation and composite tissue allotransplantation.
- Immunology and Immunogenetics: Exploration of the immunological mechanisms underlying transplant rejection, tolerance induction, and immunosuppressive strategies. This includes investigations into donor-recipient compatibility, HLA typing, and immunomodulatory therapies.
- Clinical Outcomes and Epidemiology: Analysis of clinical outcomes, graft survival, patient survival, and long-term complications following transplantation. Epidemiological studies examining trends, disparities, and outcomes across different patient populations are also welcomed.
- Ethical, Legal, and Social Issues: Examination of ethical dilemmas, legal considerations, and societal implications surrounding organ donation, allocation policies, living donation, and end-of-life care in transplantation.
- Transplantation Nursing and Allied Health: Insights into the role of nursing professionals, transplant coordinators, pharmacists, and other allied health professionals in the care of transplant recipients. This includes best practices in patient education, medication management, and psychosocial support.
- Innovative Technologies and Therapies: Novel technologies, surgical techniques, and therapeutic approaches aimed at improving the success and accessibility of transplantation procedures. This encompasses developments in organ perfusion, biomaterials, bioengineering, and precision medicine.
The Journal of Transplantation Proceedings and Research is committed to advancing the field of transplantation through rigorous scientific inquiry, multidisciplinary collaboration, and the translation of research findings into clinical practice. We invite submissions from researchers and clinicians worldwide and strive to maintain the highest standards of editorial integrity and scholarly excellence.
