Current Cardiovascular Risk Reports

Aims & Scope

The aim of this journal is to keep readers informed by providing cutting-edge reviews on key topics pertaining to cardiovascular risk.

We use a systematic approach: international experts prepare timely articles on relevant topics that highlight the most important recent original publications.

We accomplish this aim by appointing Section Editors in major subject areas across the discipline of cardiovascular medicine to select topics for review articles by leading experts who emphasize recent developments and highlight important papers published in the past year.

An Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research.

We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field.
