Academic publisher Maney Publishing, UK, has announced that it will start publishing the International Musculoskeletal Medicine on behalf of the Society of Orthopaedic Medicine (SOM) and the British Institute of Musculoskeletal Medicine (BIMM), starting 2008.
International Musculoskeletal Medicine, formerly called the Journal of Orthopaedic Medicine, will re-launch with the Editorial Manager online submission and refereeing system, and an updated journal design. In addition, the re-launch will see the extension of the journal's scope to include all aspects of musculoskeletal medicine, including manual therapy and manual medicine.
International Musculoskeletal Medicine is the official publication of the SOM and BIMM. The journal publishes peer-reviewed research and review papers on pain and dysfunction in the musculoskeletal system. It seeks to encourage better treatment by improving the evidence base for best practice. To encourage better understanding of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction, it publishes papers dealing with its causation and the mechanisms underlying chronicity as well as the mechanisms for obtaining satisfactory relief.
