A Step Forward: Vessel Plus Joins the Ranks with First Impact Factor

We are pleased to announce that Vessel Plus has received its first official Impact Factor of 0.7, as announced in the 2025 Journal Citation Reports (JCR) by Clarivate on June 18, 2025. The journal is ranked 200th out of 230 journals in the Cardiac & Cardiovascular Systems category and is classified in Q4.

This achievement marks an important step forward in the journal’s development and reflects its growing visibility and influence in the global vascular research community. It is the result of the collective efforts and dedication of the Editor-in-Chief, Prof. Aijun Sun, our authors, reviewers, Editorial Board members, and readers, to whom we express our sincere gratitude.
