Scandinavian Journal of Surgery
The Scandinavian Journal of Surgery (SJS) is the official peer reviewed journal of the Finnish Surgical Society and the Scandinavian Surgical Society. It publishes original and review articles mainly from the following surgical fields and specialties (in alphabetical order): -Bariatric Surgery- Breast Surgery- Cardiothoracic Surgery- Endocrine Surgery- General Surgery (eg. Hernia)- Gastrointestinal Surgery (eg. HPB, Upper-GI, Colorectal)- Hand Surgery- Maxillo-Facial Surgery- Neurosurgery- Orthopaedic Surgery- Pediatric Surgery- Plastic Surgery- Transplantation Surgery- Trauma and Acute Care Surgery- Urology- Vascular Surgery. The main aim of the journal is on the rapidly advancing front of clinical surgery, providing new knowledge to the global surgical community. In addition to original articles and reviews, a special section entitled “How we do it” aims to publish short clinical reports or practical surgical techniques or innovations with relevant pictures or drawings. SJS regularly publishes themed special issues consisting of a series of invited review articles commissioned by 1-3 guest editors. SJS does not publish case reports.
Impact Factor Trend 2000 - 2025
The impact factor (IF) or journal impact factor (JIF) of an academic journal is a scientometric factor based on the yearly average number of citations on articles published by a particular journal in the last two years. In other words, the impact factor of 2024 - 2025 is the average of the number of cited publications divided by the citable publications of a journal. A journal impact factor is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field. Normally, journals with higher impact factors are often deemed to have more influence than those with lower ones. However, the science community has also noted that review articles typically are more citable than research articles.Here you can check the journal performance trends based on last 20 years of data, also check the latest journal citation reports 2025. Also Check H-Index, SCImago journal rank and journal impact factor 2025.

Any journal impact factor or scientometric indicator alone will not give you the full picture of a science journal. That’s why every year, scholars review current metrics to improve upon them and sometimes come up with new ones. There are also other factors to sider for example, H-Index, Self-Citation Ratio, SJR (SCImago Journal Rank Indicator) and SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper). Researchers may also consider the practical aspect of a journal such as publication fees, acceptance rate, review speed.
