JMIG’s Impact Factor Soars!

A history-making achievement

The Impact Factor for Ob/Gyn Journals has been released and we are proud to announce that for the first time in JMIG’s history our impact factor passed 3. The stats for JMIG are as follows:

This is an amazing success that can be attributed to the high-quality articles that we accepted that reflect a greater emphasis on surgical trials. Surgical research is arguably more difficult to accomplish as there are fewer clinical trials but we were able to attract a high number.

The number of manuscripts submitted continues to increase, but we only accept approximately 20% and few case reports. We must also remember that an excellent journal is the result of an engaged Editorial Board, excellent reviewers, and a dedicated editorial staff. Our thanks to all who have contributed to this success and we look forward to celebrating together at our annual meeting this November.
