On Being the Editor in Chief of the Journal CHEST: 14 Memorable Years

The Editors of Circulation Research are pleased to produce this annual state-of-the-journal report. Looking back on 2004, our fifth year as stewards of this fine publication, we are happy to relate that this was a year of continued growth and success. The editorial complement has evolved insofar as Marlene Rabinovitch stepped down as Associate Editor after four years of distinguished service to the journal; Kathy Griendling was recruited to fill the void and has become a valued member of the team. Fortuitously, Kathy and Marlene shared the 2004 Basic Research Prize of the American Heart Association. Submissions to Circulation Research have soared during the past five years, with each year setting a new record. Year 2004 was no exception. The journal received 1884 submissions, exceeding the 2003 total by 4% (Figure 1). Manuscript submissions to Circulation Research came from a diverse spectrum of nations, from well-known centers of science to developing countries (Figure 2). Even with this …

A New Journal and a New Society—Why?

Public Health Reports (PHR), the official journal of the Office of the US Surgeon General and US Public Health Service, is the oldest public health journal in the United States. Considering its heritage through the eyes of its past editors in chief (EICs), many of whom have been influential public health figures, can provide a fresh point of view on US public health history, of which the journal has been an integral part. Here, we reconstruct the timeline of past PHR EICs and identify women among them. We reconstructed the PHR EIC timeline by reviewing the journal's previous mastheads and its articles describing leadership transitions. For each EIC, we identified dates in office, concurrent job titles, key contributions, and other important developments. PHR had 25 EIC transitions in 109 years of its history, during which a single individual in charge of the journal could be identified. Only 5 identifiable EICs were women, who served as EIC for approximately one-quarter of the journal's traceable history (28 of 109 years). PHR's longest-serving EIC was a woman named Marian P. Tebben (1974-1994). PHR history revealed frequent EIC transitions and a low representation of women among its EICs. Mapping the timeline of past EICs of a historic public health journal can yield valuable insights into the workings of US public health, especially in the area of building a research evidence base.

‘Caring for the Ages’ Marks Shift in Leadership

The Cochrane Library Oversight Committee.

Women remain underrepresented among editors of scientific journals, particularly in senior positions. However, to what extent this applies to medical journals of different specialties remains unclear. To investigate the gender distribution of the editors in chief at leading medical journals. Cross-sectional study of the editors in chief at the top 10 international medical journals of 41 categories related to the medical specialties of the Clarivate Analytics Web of Science Journal Citation Reports in 2019. Proportion of women as editors in chief. This study found that, overall, women represented 21% (94 of 44) of the editors in chief, with wide variation across medical specialties from 0% to 82%. There were 5 categories for which none of the editors in chief were women (dentistry, oral surgery and medicine; allergy; psychiatry; anesthesiology; and ophthalmology) and only 3 categories for which women outnumbered men as editors in chief (primary health care, microbiology, and genetics and heredity). In 27 of the 41 categories, women represented less than a third of the editors in chief (eg, 1 of 10 for critical care medicine, 2 of 10 for gastroenterology and hepatology, and 3 of 10 for endocrinology and metabolism). This study found that women are underrepresented among editors in chief of leading medical journals. For the benefit of medical research, a joint effort from editorial boards, publishers, authors, and academic institutions is required to address this gender gap.
