About the AJRCCM

Mission Statement
The American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine publishes high-quality original papers, reviews, and clinical trials in respiratory, critical care, and sleep medicine to foster advances in translational research and clinical practice.

Introduction
The American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine focuses on human biology and disease, as well as animal studies that contribute to the understanding of pathophysiology and treatment of diseases that affect the respiratory system and critically ill patients. Papers that are solely or predominantly based in cell and molecular biology are published in the companion journal, the American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology. The Journal also seeks to publish clinical trials and outstanding review articles on areas of interest in several forms. The State-of-the-Art review is a treatise usually covering a broad field that brings bench research to the bedside. Shorter reviews are published as Critical Care Perspectives or Pulmonary Perspectives. These are generally focused on a more limited area and advance a concerted opinion about care for a specific process. Concise Clinical Reviews provide an evidence-based synthesis of the literature pertaining to topics of fundamental importance to the practice of pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine. Images providing advances or unusual contributions to the field are published as Images in Pulmonary, Critical Care, Sleep Medicine and the Sciences.
A recent trend and future direction of the Journal has been to include debates of a topical nature on issues of importance in pulmonary and critical care medicine and to the membership of the American Thoracic Society. Other recent changes have included encompassing works from the field of critical care medicine and the extension of the editorial governing of journal policy to colleagues outside of the United States of America. The focus and direction of the Journal is to establish an international forum for state-of-the-art respiratory and critical care medicine.

History
The first issue of the journal was published in March 1917 as the American Review of Tuberculosis. Since then there have been several title changes. In 1953 a subtitle was added, “A Journal of Pulmonary Diseases.” In 1955 the title became the American Review of Tuberculosis and Pulmonary Diseases, in 1959 the American Review of Respiratory Diseases, and in 1966 the title became the American Review of Respiratory Disease. Finally, in 1994 the Journal became the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. Recent editors included John F. Murray, MD (1973-1980), Gareth Green, MD (1980-1985), Reuben Cherniack, MD (1985-1989), Robert A. Klocke, MD (1989-1994), Alan R. Leff, MD (1994-1999), Martin J. Tobin (1999-2004), Edward Abraham, MD, (2004-2009), and Jacob Isasha Sznajder, MD (2010-2014). The current editor, Jadwiga A. Wedzicha, MD, is a Professor of Respiratory Medicine at the National Heart and Lung Institute (Royal Brompton Campus), Imperial College London, UK.

Aims and Scope
The American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine focuses on human biology and disease, as well as animal and in vitro studies that contribute to the understanding of pathophysiology and treatment of diseases that affect the respiratory system and critically ill patients.
