Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Around one-third of total deaths are associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs); this presents a major challenge for modern-day healthcare. CVDs encompass several conditions that can affect the heart and blood vessels, including coronary artery diseases, carditis, heart failure, thromboembolism and so on. There are many risk factors for CVDs. More recently, a link was found between inflammation and atherosclerosis, and there have been some new perspectives on endothelial coagulation disorders, which all may lead to new breakthroughs in the clinical treatment of CVDs.
The aim of this Special Issue is to extend the knowledge of the underlying molecular mechanisms involved in CVDs. Both original research and review articles as well as short communications are strongly encouraged. Methodological studies focusing on new models and research techniques used to study these aspects are also welcome.
Dr. Silvia Barbieri
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
