Archive of Clinical Medicine

Aims & Scope

Archive of Clinical Medicine is a double-anonymized peer-reviewed scientific journal covering current issues in clinical medicine, focusing on surgery, pathology, and forensic medicine with an emphasis on its medical component. The journal's scope includes, but is not limited to, the following areas: Surgery – general surgery, organ and system surgery, specialized surgery, modern surgical techniques and innovations, perioperative care, outcome research, minimally invasive and reconstructive procedures, surgical oncology, emergency and trauma surgery, as well as research on medical services related to surgical practice. Pathology – diagnostic histopathology, autopsy research, molecular and immunohistochemical pathology, clinical-pathological correlation, experimental medicine, development of diagnostic algorithms, and translational research focused on pathology. Forensic medicine – individuals and biomaterials forensic medical identification, thanatology, forensic medical examination clinical and theoretical aspects, innovative research methods, and the evidence-based medicine application in forensic medical practice. The journal also publishes: Translational and interdisciplinary research linking pathological findings to surgical decision-making and patient outcomes. Clinical cases and clinical-pathological case series that provide important educational or diagnostic information, present new findings, or highlight significant diagnostic errors. Evidence reviews that summarize the best current evidence and provide recommendations for clinical practice in surgery and pathology. Educational studies and methodological materials related to surgical and pathological training, where the results are of obvious importance for clinical competence and patient safety. Manuscripts should present original, unpublished work (or scholarly reviews) and must be written in English . The Editorial Team encourages submissions that promote ethical, evidence-based practice, scientific rigour, and reproducibility. We welcome multidisciplinary contributions and research that support improvements in patient care, diagnostics, and surgical pathology education. The Editorial Team supports the Sustainable Development Goals – particularly Good Health and Well-Being – and is committed to principles of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in editorial processes and reviewer selection to prevent any unlawful discrimination defined in C4DISC Principles . The journal follows internationally recognised publication-ethics principles.

A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
