The American Heart Association has announced the launch of an open access journal -Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease (JAHA). The journal covers free peer-reviewed research on heart disease and stroke.
As with the association's 11 print journals, articles will undergo rigorous peer review prior to publication. The online format will not have limits on the length of articles, the number of photos and illustrations, or the use of colour or video.
Initial studies published in the inaugural issue of the journal focus on stroke, peripheral artery disease, heart failure and diabetes.
