Barcelona Respiratory Network Reviews

Aims & Scope

BRN Reviews is an official journal of Barcelona Respiratory Network. It is a quarterly, online and open access journal that publishes cutting-edge, high quality, internationally authored reviews on timely topics in respiratory medicine, with an emphasis on their translational aspects. Our mission is to publish high-impact reviews that synthesize the latest advances and trends in respiratory medicine. The journal publishes comprehensive reviews covering the entire spectrum of respiratory health, with a strategic focus on translational medicine (genomics, proteomics, molecular biology) and its clinical applications (new biomarkers, or therapeutic targets); clinical innovation (reviews on state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, advanced imaging, and novel pharmacological or non-pharmacological interventions in pulmonary diseases); precision medicine (endotypes, phenotypes, and personalized approaches to respiratory care), and global respiratory health (critical analysis of epidemiology, environmental impact (climate change and air quality), as well as public health policies related to chronic and infectious respiratory diseases). Our content covers, but is not limited to: Chronic Airway Diseases (Asthma, COPD, Bronchiectasis). Interstitial lung diseases and pulmonary fibrosis. Pulmonary vascular diseases and hypertension. Respiratory infections (including emerging viruses and pneumonia). Sleep-disordered breathing and mechanical ventilation. Thoracic oncology and pleural diseases. Lung transplantation and regenerative medicine.

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.
