Its 2025 impact factor is 3.3 and its CiteScore is 4.6.《儿科传染病学会杂志》是儿科传染病学会的官方期刊，由牛津大学出版社出版。该刊 2012 年创刊，内容覆盖围产期，儿童期与青春期的感染性疾病，从实验室一路延伸到病床旁。其 2025 年影响因子为 3.3，CiteScore 为 4.6。

Scope

• The journal is dedicated to perinatal, childhood and adolescent infectious diseases, which places three life stages at the centre of its programme rather than one.该刊致力于围产期，儿童期与青春期的感染性疾病，这把三个人生阶段而非单一阶段放在其选题中心。

• It sets out to be a high-quality source of original research articles, and the editors treat new data as the backbone of each issue.该刊力求成为原创研究论文的高质量来源，编辑把新数据当作每一期的骨干。

• Clinical trial reports form a second strand, since trials in children raise questions of consent, dosing and long-term follow-up that trials in adults do not.临床试验报告构成第二条线索，因为儿童试验会带来成人试验所没有的知情同意，给药剂量与长期随访问题。

• Guidelines are published as well, so that recommendations written by specialist bodies reach the clinicians who have to apply them.该刊也发表指南，使专业机构写成的建议能送达必须加以应用的临床医师手中。

• Topical reviews close the list of article types that the publisher gives, and they gather what is known about a subject into one place.专题综述补足了出版方给出的文章类型清单，把关于某一主题的已知内容汇于一处。

• Particular attention is paid to the interests and needs of the global paediatric infectious diseases communities, so the journal follows practice in low and middle income countries as closely as in wealthy ones.该刊特别关注全球儿科传染病学界的兴趣与需要，因此它对中低收入国家实践的跟进不亚于对富裕国家的跟进。

• Its material runs from bench to bedside, and laboratory findings are expected to speak to the care of children rather than to stand apart from it.其内容从实验室延伸到病床旁，实验室的发现被期望与儿童照护对话，而不是与之分离。

• The journal strives to be a forum for diverse perspectives on infectious diseases in children, because the editors believe that the presentation of differing viewpoints engenders discussion and collaboration within the academic community.该刊力求成为儿童感染性疾病多种观点的论坛，因为编辑相信呈现不同立场会在学术共同体内部引发讨论与合作。

• It aims to be a timely and neutral forum for the dissemination of ideas, so that data can be evaluated in depth and research can be guided towards better health for children.该刊力求成为及时而中立的观点传播论坛，使数据得到深入评价，研究得以朝着改善儿童健康的方向推进。

• Brief reports and research letters give short findings a place alongside full-length articles.简报与研究通信让简短的发现与全文论文一样有自己的位置。

• Lay summaries are provided with articles, so that families and readers outside the specialty can follow what a study found.文章配有面向普通读者的简述，使家庭与非本专业的读者也能看懂一项研究发现了什么。

• Between the chief articles the journal runs editorial commentaries, in which a specialist sets a paper in the context of the wider literature.在主要论文之间，该刊还刊载编辑评论，由专家把一篇论文放进更广的文献背景中加以定位。

• Calls for proposals are issued on chosen topics, among them initiatives to improve the management of children with combined infectious and surgical conditions.该刊就选定主题发布征稿，其中有旨在改善合并感染与外科情况患儿管理的倡议。

• Publishing is hybrid, and members of the society may apply a discount to open access fees for any paper on which they are a named author.出版采用混合模式，学会成员对自己署名的任何论文都可以申请开放获取费用的折扣。

• Calls for proposals have also invited work on initiatives that promote the well-being and retention of faculty in paediatric infectious diseases.征稿还邀请研究者就促进儿科传染病学教研人员福祉与留任的举措投稿。
