Name of the Tool Epidemiologic Reviews Home Page Logo URL Name of the Tool Epidemiologic Reviews Home Page Logo URL http://epirev.oxfordjournals.org/ Subject Public Health - Reviews - Periodicals Accessibility On Subscription basis Language English Publisher Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health Brief History The journal was established in 1979 by Neal Nathanson and Philip E. Sartwell. During the initial period, primarily headed by Nathanson, the journal established its credibility by soliciting pieces from well-respected epidemiologists and researchers that had also or were in the process of contributing to the American Journal of Epidemiology. The topics broke down equally under "three general topics: infectious diseases, other conditions, and general topics related to both," according to Sartwell in his introduction of the journal in its first volume. In 1985, Moyses Szklo took over as editor-in-chief. After Szklo, the journal was led by Haroutune K. Armenian, the longest serving editor-in-chief to date. Armenian regularly obtained advice from Leon Gordis and Jon Samet. In 1999, the journal separated from being a single 200+ page annual issue into two 100-page bi-annual issues, with the first one focusing on themes popular to public health and the second one focused on methodology. The following year, the journal switched publishers from the Johns Hopkins University Press to the Oxford University Press. Though Armenian began working with Michel A. Ibrahim as co-editor-in-chief starting in 2003, Ibrahim's leadership did not fully commence until 2005 after Armenian had officially retired from his position.

The contents are solely the responsibility of the authors and do not necessarily represent the official views of NIOSH. CPWR is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit research and training institution created by the Building and Construction Trades Department, AFL-CIO, and serves as the research arm of the BCTD. CPWR provides safety and health research and information for the construction trades and industry. For more information, visit www.cpwr.com. This brief handbook was developed as a reference tool for CPWR researchers selecting venues for publishing their findings. Approximately fifty journals of possible interest to CPWR consortium researchers have been identified, and their 2011 Journal Citation Reports “impact factor” noted – a measurement of how likely an article published in that journal is to be cited in other scholarly journals.1 (“NF” indicates that no impact factor measurement was found.) CPWR has decided to take this in-house publication and make it available to all researchers involved in construction occupational safety and health. The journals included are generally ones that have published the findings of CPWR researchers in the past or competitors of those who have. Yellow highlights indicate that the journal has published at least one article on construction health and safety by a CPWR researcher. The journals are divided into four categories: 1) Medicine and Occupational Health 2) Construction and Engineering 3) Economics, Industrial Relations, and Labor Studies 4) Business, Management, Public Policy and Psychology The first pages to follow contain a list of journals in each category ranked by impact factor.

Initially submitted May 20, 2015; accepted for publication July 10, 2015. On this, the 100th anniversary of Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, we take the opportunity to reflect on the ties between the School, the American Journal of Epidemiology, and the Society for Epidemiologic Research. We discuss briefly the intersection of the School, the Journal, and the Society throughout their histories, with the aim of providing some insight into how the Journal and the Society have contributed to the evolution of the field. In so doing, we articulate the challenges that the Journal and the Society jointly face today, with an eye to finding opportunities in these challenges that can be helpful in coming decades. academic journal; history; professional society Abbreviations: AJE, American Journal of Epidemiology; JHSPH, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health; SER, Society for Epidemiologic Research.

Art Design Institute Abstract Objectives: To compare the number and quality of public, environmental and occupational health articles published in international journals from the 3 major non-English speaking countries of East Asia: China, Japan and Korea. Material and Methods: Public, environmental and occupational health articles from China, Japan and Korea that were published in 161 journals from 2003 to 2012 were retrieved from the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) database. We recorded the numbers of total articles, impact factors (IF), citations, number of articles in top 10 journals, references as well as the ar- ticle distribution from various regions in China. Results: From 2003 to 2012, China, Japan and Korea published 5713, 3802 and 1967 papers respectively, with accumulated impact factor of 14 934.55, 8758.36 and 6189.25, the average impact factor of 2.61, 2.30 and 3.15 and the average citation numbers per document of 5.08, 6.49 and 5.25. In the top 10 high-impact pub- lic, environmental and occupational health journals, China, Japan and Korea accounted for 50.19%, 20.34% and 29.47% of all the papers published in those journals, respectively.
