• Integrative work that links organ systems, or that combines molecular mechanisms with whole-animal function, is a stated preference.连接各器官系统，或将分子机制与整体动物功能相结合的整合性研究，是期刊明确偏好的类型。
• Human and translational physiology receive particular emphasis, without excluding comparative and veterinary physiology.人体与转化生理学尤受重视，同时不排除比较生理学与兽医生理学。
• Advanced experimental methods, among them electrophysiology, imaging and molecular biology, are expected in the papers the journal selects.期刊选用的论文须运用电生理、成像与分子生物学等先进实验手段。
• Reviews, commentaries and editorials accompany the research papers and are used to frame controversies in the field.综述、评论与社论与研究论文并行刊出，用以梳理领域内的争议。
• The Acta Physiologica Award is given to authors whose papers the editors judge most worthy.期刊设立（Acta Physiologica Award），授予编辑认为最具价值的论文作者。

• The journal began in 1889 as the Skandinavisches Archiv fur Physiologie, founded for the Scandinavian physiological community and publishing in German.本刊于 1889 年以（Skandinavisches Archiv fur Physiologie）之名创刊，服务斯堪的纳维亚生理学界，当时以德文出版。
• It was renamed Acta Physiologica Scandinavica in 1940 and took its present title in 2006, when the scope was widened from a regional to an international one.1940 年更名为（Acta Physiologica Scandinavica），2006 年改用现名，同时把定位从区域性刊物扩展为国际刊物。
• Publication is handled by Wiley, formerly Wiley-Blackwell, on behalf of the Scandinavian Physiological Society, a charitable body that returns surplus to the discipline.期刊由（Wiley）及其前身（Wiley-Blackwell）代表斯堪的纳维亚生理学会出版，该学会为慈善团体，盈余回馈学科。
• Twelve issues appear each year, and the journal has long served as the official organ of the Federation of European Physiological Societies.期刊每年出版 12 期，长期担任欧洲生理学会联合会的官方刊物。
• The 2025 Journal Impact Factor is 5.7, against 5.6 in 2024 and 7.523 in 2022, and the title ranks 7th of 89 in physiology.2025 年期刊影响因子为 5.7，2024 年为 5.6，2022 年为 7.523，在生理学类 89 种期刊中位列第 7。
• Publication is hybrid, with a subscription route and an open access option for individual papers.出版模式为混合型，既有订阅渠道，也允许单篇论文开放获取。

Editors

• Tobias Wang of Aarhus University became editor-in-chief in January 2025, succeeding Pontus B. Persson.（Tobias Wang）于 2025 年 1 月出任主编，接替（Pontus B. Persson）。
• Wang works on comparative cardiovascular and respiratory physiology, particularly in reptiles and amphibians, and on the evolution of cardiorespiratory function.（Tobias Wang）研究比较心血管与呼吸生理，尤以爬行动物与两栖动物为对象，并关注心肺功能的演化。
• The editor is supported by a handling team of subject editors who cover the physiological subdisciplines represented in the journal.主编由一组负责各生理学分支的学科编辑协助处理稿件。
• Because the journal is the organ of a European federation, its editorial pool is drawn mainly from Nordic and wider European laboratories, with international members added.因期刊为欧洲联合会刊物，编辑队伍以北欧及更广泛的欧洲实验室为主，并吸收国际成员。
