The Journal of Coronary Heart Diseases is an open access Journal committed to publish seminal research in the diagnosis, management, treatment, and prevention of Coronary Heart Diseases. Prevention and timely treatment of these diseases is critical as they might lead to angina, stroke, heart failure, heart attack, and even cardiac arrest. The Journal therefore places special impetus on studies associated with investigating cardiac anatomy and physiology, and studies investigating the etiology, pathophysiology, and epidemiology of coronary heart disease. Papers will be published approximately 7 days after acceptance.
The Journal of Coronary Heart Diseases is spotlight on molecular genetics, genHilaris SRL, systems biology, proteHilaris SRL, metabolHilaris SRL, and novel biomarkers of cardiovascular disease that might enhance our understanding of the disease pathophysiology are very welcome.

Article Preparation Guidelines
Articles Categories
The Journal of Coronary Heart Diseases is a scholarly research journals and it considers various types of articles for publication such as:
Research Article: A research article is a primary source. It reports the original study performed by the authors. A Results and Discussion section describes the outcomes of the data analysis. Charts and graphs illustrating the results are typically included followed by conclusion and References. The word limit for a research article should be 1500-6000. Each article should possess a section “Conflict of Interest”.
Review Articles: A review article is an article that summarizes the current state of understanding on a topic. A review article surveys and summarizes previously published studies, rather than reporting new facts or analysis. The preferable word count for review article should be 2500-9500. Review articles must explain:
