The journal is currently published by Elsevier.
The journal's current impact factor, an important journal metric published by Thomson Reuters each year, is 3.849 and Thomson Reuters' Journal Citation Reports ranks The Annals as 16th of 198 surgery journals, 31st of 123 cardiac and cardiovascular journals, and 13th of 58 respiratory journals. An authoritative, clinically oriented, comprehensive resource, The Annals is committed to providing a place for all cardiothoracic surgeons to relate experiences which will help improve patient care.
