Scope
- Scope: the journal is designed to fill a large void, namely a source for critical reviews and viewpoints on emerging findings on mechanisms of ageing and age-related disease, with an emphasis on cellular and molecular mechanisms of the ageing process and applications in extending lifespan and preventing disease.学科定位： 刊物旨在填补空白，为衰老机制与年龄相关疾病新发现的批判性综述与观点文章提供来源，强调衰老过程的细胞与分子机制及其在延寿与疾病预防中的应用。[2]
- Topics: the cellular and molecular basis of ageing mechanisms, age-related diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and neurodegenerative disorders, lifespan-extending interventions such as caloric restriction, and telomerase, stem cells, energy metabolism and oxygen free radical metabolism.收录主题： 衰老机制的细胞与分子基础，癌症、心血管疾病、糖尿病与神经退行性疾病等年龄相关疾病，热量限制等延长寿命的干预，端粒酶、干细胞、能量代谢与氧自由基代谢。
- Article types: the journal centres on in-depth review articles, and the official guide for authors states that submissions may be made in three formats.文章体裁： 以深度综述为主，官方投稿指南称作者可按三种格式投稿。
- Publishing model: hybrid open access, with authors choosing between an open access route carrying an article processing charge and a subscription route free of publication charges.出版模式： 混合开放获取，作者可选开放获取或订阅路径，开放获取需支付版面费。
- Indexing and metrics: covered by Scopus, Medline and the SCIE and tracked by the SJR and SNIP indicators, with a 2025 impact factor of 15.5, a CiteScore of 24.1 and roughly six days to first decision.收录与指标： 被 Scopus、Medline、SCIE 收录并计入 SJR 与 SNIP 指标，2025 年影响因子 15.5、CiteScore 24.1，投稿至首次决定约 6 天。
History
- Founded: the journal was founded in 2002 with volumes numbered consecutively by year, running at six volumes a year before 2015, eight volumes a year through 2021 and ten volumes a year from 2022 onwards.创刊： 2002 年创刊，卷号按年连续编号，2015 年前为每年 6 卷，2021 年及以前为每年 8 卷，2022 年起增至每年 10 卷。[3]
- Title history: no renaming on record, the title Ageing Research Reviews has been in use since 2002.更名史： 无更名记录，创刊至今沿用 Ageing Research Reviews 刊名。
- Intellectual context: the journal grew up as ageing research shifted from phenomenological description to mechanistic dissection and gerontology and cell biology converged, a turn long reflected in its review coverage.学术脉络： 刊物成长于衰老研究从现象描述转向机制解析、老年医学与细胞生物学加速融合的阶段，其综述选题长期反映这一转向。
