International Journal of Laboratory Hematology

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology is the official journal of the International Society for Laboratory Hematology, published by Wiley on behalf of that society, and it carries peer-reviewed work on the diagnosis and laboratory investigation of blood disorders, with a 2025 impact factor of 2.2 and a five-year impact factor of 2.3.《国际实验室血液学杂志》是国际实验室血液学会的官方刊物，由 Wiley 代表该学会出版，刊载血液疾病诊断与实验室检查方面的同行评议文章，2025 年影响因子为 2.2，五年影响因子为 2.3。

The present title was adopted in 2007 and continues the volume sequence of the journal that came before it, Clinical and Laboratory Haematology, so that the first issue under the current name opened volume 29 instead of volume 1.现用题名于 2007 年启用，沿袭前刊《临床与实验室血液学杂志》的卷号序列，故以现名出版的首期承接第二十九卷，卷号并未从头另起。

Scope

• The journal presents itself as a forum for the communication of new developments, research topics and the practice of clinical and laboratory haematology, addressing laboratory work in its own right.该刊自我定位为传播新进展、研究议题与临床及实验室血液学实践的论坛，着眼实验室工作本身，床旁治疗不占其主要篇幅。

• Invited reviews are a recognised format, and they are commissioned by the editorial team to survey a field in which a body of knowledge has assembled.邀请综述是固定的体裁，由编辑部发出，用以梳理某一领域已经积累起来的一整套知识。

• Full length original articles form the core of the journal, and the guidance for contributors limits them to work directly connected with the practice of haematology and blood transfusion.全文原创论文构成该刊的主体，投稿指南要求这类工作须与血液学及输血实践直接相关。

• Case reports are taken, and they carry the laboratory detail that a single clinical episode demands, which is what makes them useful to working laboratories.个案报告予以收载，承载单个临床事件所需的实验室细节，也正因如此它们对在岗实验室有实用价值。

• Technical reports are admitted as a category of their own, covering method validation, instrument performance and the analytical detail behind routine testing.技术报告单列为一类，涵盖方法验证、仪器性能以及常规检测背后的分析细节。

• The journal also prints regular book reviews, notices and correspondence, so that a working laboratory can follow what is being published and reply to what it reads.该刊还常设书评、启事与通信栏目，在岗实验室因此得以追踪出版动态，并对所读内容作出回应。

• A recurring series called Synoptics presents a written summary of meetings that readers may have missed, a service the scientific society behind the journal offers at no cost to the author.名为 Synoptics 的专栏以书面形式概述读者可能错过的会议，这份服务由该刊背后的学会向作者免费提供。

• The editorial policy is described as active and positive, with the stated aim of ensuring that work of the highest scientific standard is reported and that practising haematologists can communicate effectively with one another.编辑方针被表述为主动而积极，其宗旨在于保证最高科学水准的工作得到发表，并让在岗血液学工作者彼此有效沟通。

• Short articles introduced in 2021 under the name Case Images describe an interesting and novel haematological image in no more than about five hundred words, and fifty-five such manuscripts were accepted in the first year of the format.2021 年新设的 Case Images 短文以不超过约五百字的篇幅描述一幅新颖的血液学图像，该体裁第一年即录用了五十五篇稿件。

• Work sponsored by the International Council for Standardization in Haematology is published here, covering laboratory measurement of factor VIII and factor IX type I inhibitors and quality control practices for blood cell counting.国际血液学标准化委员会赞助的工作也在此发表，涵盖凝血因子 VIII 与因子 IX 型抑制物的实验室测定，以及血细胞计数的质量控制规范。

• The readership comprises medical technologists, clinical laboratory scientists, laboratory haematologists, pathologists and trainees, a mix that the journal and its society both treat as central.读者群涵盖医学检验技术人员、临床实验室科学家、实验室血液学家、病理医师与进修人员，该刊与其背后的学会都把这一组合视为核心。

• Meeting papers reach the pages through abstracts of the society's annual symposium, which are gathered into an electronic supplement and presented by guest co-editors for themed issues.会议论文经由学会年度讨论会的摘要进入版面，这些摘要汇入电子增刊，并由客座共同主编主持专题各期的编务。

• Subject coverage in the medical literature indexes is narrow but clear, with blood tests and haematology forming the two headings under which the journal is described.在医学文献索引中的主题归类窄而清晰，该刊被著录的条目为血液学检查与血液学两项。

History

• The journal descends from Clinical and Laboratory Haematology, which was published in Oxford by Blackwell Scientific Publications under the print identifier 0141-9854 and the electronic identifier 1365-2257.该刊的前身是《临床与实验室血液学杂志》，由 Blackwell Scientific Publications 在牛津出版，纸本标识为 0141-9854，电子标识为 1365-2257。

• The predecessor's last volume was the twenty-eighth, and the present title opened with volume 29 in February 2007, a continuity the medical catalogue records by listing the earlier title under continues.前身刊的末卷为第二十八卷，现题名则于 2007 年 2 月以第二十九卷开篇，医学目录正是以接续前刊的方式记录这一延续。

• The medical catalogue gives the start year as 2007 and the frequency as bimonthly, and its coverage statement begins at volume 29 number 1 of February 2007 for both MEDLINE and PubMed.医学目录给出的起始年为 2007 年，出版频次为双月刊，收录声明自 2007 年 2 月第二十九卷第一期起，MEDLINE 与 PubMed 均同此起点。

• The imprint line reads Oxford, Blackwell Scientific Publications, from 2007 onward, and the publisher of record today is Wiley under the Blackwell Publishing imprint.承印信息自 2007 年起记作牛津的 Blackwell Scientific Publications，今日登记在案的出版方为 Wiley，其名下沿用 Blackwell Publishing 的牌子。

• Blackwell Scientific Publications passed under Wiley ownership in 2007, the same year the title changed, and the publishing relationship has been uninterrupted since.Blackwell Scientific Publications 于 2007 年转入 Wiley 旗下，改名也在同年，此后出版关系未曾中断。

• Six issues make up a volume, the journal is issued in print and also online, and the catalogue frequency term bimonthly corresponds to that six-issue rhythm.每卷由 6 期构成，该刊既有纸本也另出网络版，目录所用双月刊一词对应的正是这一每岁 6 期的节律。

• The catalogue names the International Society for Laboratory Hematology as the corporate body behind the title, with the journal described as that society's official publication from the outset.目录将国际实验室血液学会列为该刊的团体著者，并自创刊之初便把这份刊物记作该学会的官方刊物。

• The abbreviated title in the medical literature indexes is Int J Lab Hematol, and the short form used in the science citation index is INT J LAB HEMATOL.该刊在医学文献索引中的缩写题名为 Int J Lab Hematol，在科学引文索引中的简称则是 INT J LAB HEMATOL。

• The volume count has run forward without a break, so the 2022 special issue stood as volume 44 number 1 and the sequence places the volume for the present year in the upper forties.卷号一路延续而未曾中断，2022 年的专刊以第四十四卷第一期的形式出现，依此序列推算，眼下年份的卷号当在四十卷段之末。

• Submissions rose steeply over the early pandemic years, from 634 in 2019 to 1055 in 2020 and 1150 in 2021, and the number of articles published grew from 171 in 2019 to 323 in 2021.投稿量在疫情初年陡增，2019 年为 634 篇，2020 年升至 1055 篇，2021 年为 1150 篇，刊出文章数也由 2019 年的 171 篇增至 2021 年的 323 篇。

• Against that larger flow the editors kept their turnaround times at 77 days to acceptance and 109 days to online publication, while the acceptance rate held at 27 per cent.在稿件流量增大的情况下，编辑部把接受用时维持在 77 天、在线发表用时 109 天，录用率则保持在 27%。

• Open access has grown steadily as the publisher's transitional agreements have covered more institutions, and by 2025 the share of articles freely available reached 28.97 per cent within a hybrid publishing model.随着出版方的过渡协议覆盖更多机构，开放获取的比重稳步上升，到 2025 年，可免费获取的文章比例在混合出版模式下达到 28.97%。

• The impact factor has moved from 2.877 in 2021 to 3.45 in 2022, then to 2.2 in 2023, 2.3 in 2024 and 2.2 in 2025, and in the latest edition the journal ranks 59th among 103 titles in the haematology category.影响因子由 2021 年的 2.877 升至 2022 年的 3.45，其后为 2023 年的 2.2、2024 年的 2.3 与 2025 年的 2.2，在最新一版中，该刊于血液学类目 103 种期刊里列第 59 位。

• Manuscripts are submitted online through the publisher's system, and free format submission lets an author send text, figures and tables in a single file without conforming to the journal's styling in advance.稿件经出版方的在线系统提交，自由格式投稿允许作者把正文、图表与表格合并为一个文件送出，无须事先迁就刊物的排版格式。

• References may be given in any consistent style, and the guidance notes that the journal refers about 32 per cent of rejected manuscripts to other titles of the same publisher, so that an author need not begin again from nothing.参考文献可以采用任一前后一致的著录格式，指南还提到该刊会把约 32% 的退稿转介给同一出版方的其他刊物，作者因此无须从头再来。

• Two board members are named as the guest co-editors of the 2024 annual educational issue, which appears freely accessible and carries reviews written for the society's symposium speakers.2024 年年度教育专刊的客座共同主编由两位编委担任，该专刊可免费获取，其中收录了为学会讨论会讲者撰写的综述。

• The society's own clinical guidance database is maintained separately from the journal, but the journal remains the preferred channel for the recommendations that the International Council for Standardization in Haematology issues.学会自身的临床指南数据库与该刊分开维护，不过国际血液学标准化委员会的各项建议仍以该刊为首选发表渠道。
