Calcified Tissue International and Musculoskeletal Research is a monthly, peer-reviewed journal that explores the biochemical, biophysical, molecular, and genetic determinants of the structure, function, and metabolism of bone, and other musculoskeletal tissues. The journal publishes high-quality preclinical and translational research on these topics as well as clinical research and expert reviews which promote a greater understanding of the pathogenesis and treatment of bone disease and musculoskeletal interactions.
The journal Editors-in-Chief, Professors Stuart Ralston and René Rizzoli have recognized the authors of Calcified Tissue International’s top-cited papers of 2020-2021 and of the past 10 years, with Certificates of Publishing Excellence:
“We are very proud of the journal’s rising impact factor and wish to show our appreciation to the authors of the ten most highly cited papers of the past two years and of the past decade. These exceptional research papers and expert reviews have contributed to the journal’s growing impact and reputation as a forum of choice for the publication of new research. Also, as reflected in the rankings, a unique feature is the journal’s many excellent and well-curated topical issues featuring invited reviews by the world’s leading experts. We thank all the authors for their exceptional contributions.”
Over the past decade, the journal’s impact factor has increased by 57% percent, and is now 4.333, placing it 56th of 145 journals in the category Endocrinology and Metabolism.
