Sustaining Progress of the Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society Amidst the Crisis in Korean Healthcare System.
The 2024 Journal Citation Reports (JCR) reveal that the impact factor (IF) for the Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society (JKNS) has risen to 1.7, an increase from 1.4 in 2023. Meanwhile, Republic of Korea has been in turmoil in healthcare system since February 2024, provoked by government's sudden and drastic policy to increase medical school admissions. This situation has profoundly impacted medical research activities, in addition to clinical practice. There is concern about whether the Korean medical community can sustain and build upon its academic achievements once this situation is resolved. Maintaining the growth of a medical journal is becoming increasingly challenging. The JKNS must continue its previous efforts to sustain its current progress. To enhance its IF, JKNS should focus on recruiting high-quality review articles and becoming a preferred journal for authors by offering a rapid review process. Collaboration with subspecialty journals is also crucial to ensure that both JKNS and those journals can grow together.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society (J Korean Neurosurg Soc) is the official journal of the Korean Neurosurgical Society, and published bimonthly (1st day of January, March, May, July, September, and November). It launched in October 31, 1972 with Volume 1 and Number 1. J Korean Neurosurg Soc aims to allow neurosurgeons from around the world to enrich their knowledge of patient management, education, and clinical or experimental research, and hence their professionalism. This journal publishes Laboratory Investigations, Clinical Articles, Review Articles, Case Reports, Technical Notes, and Letters to the Editor. Our field of interest involves clinical neurosurgery (cerebrovascular disease, neuro-oncology, skull base neurosurgery, spine, pediatric neurosurgery, functional neurosurgery, epilepsy, neuro-trauma, and peripheral nerve disease) and laboratory work in neuroscience.
