Journal Title：Alcohol

Alcohol is an international, peer-reviewed journal that is devoted to publishing multi-disciplinary biomedical research on all aspects of the actions or effects of alcohol on the nervous system or on other organ systems. Emphasis is given to studies into the causes and consequences of alcohol abuse and alcoholism, and biomedical aspects of diagnosis, etiology, treatment or prevention of alcohol-related health effects.

Intended for both research scientists and practicing clinicians, the journal publishes original research on the neurobiological, neurobehavioral, and pathophysiological processes associated with alcohol drinking, alcohol abuse, alcohol-seeking behavior, tolerance, dependence, withdrawal, protracted abstinence, and relapse. In addition, the journal reports studies on the effects alcohol on brain mechanisms of neuroplasticity over the life span, biological factors associated with adolescent alcohol abuse, pharmacotherapeutic strategies in the treatment of alcoholism, biological and biochemical markers of alcohol abuse and alcoholism, pathological effects of uncontrolled drinking, biomedical and molecular factors in the effects on liver, immune system, and other organ systems, and biomedical aspects of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder including mechanisms of damage, diagnosis and early detection, treatment, and prevention. Articles are published from all levels of biomedical inquiry, including the following: molecular and cellular studies of alcohol's actions in vitro and in vivo; animal model studies of genetic, pharmacological, behavioral, developmental or pathophysiological aspects of alcohol; human studies of genetic, behavioral, cognitive, neuroimaging, or pathological aspects of alcohol drinking; clinical studies of diagnosis (including dual diagnosis), treatment, prevention, and epidemiology. The journal will publish 9 issues per year; the accepted abbreviation for Alcohol for bibliographic citation is Alcohol.

《酒精》是一本國(guó)際性、同行評(píng)審的期刊，致力于發(fā)表有關(guān)酒精對(duì)神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)或其他器官系統(tǒng)的作用或影響的各個(gè)方面的多學(xué)科生物醫(yī)學(xué)研究。重點(diǎn)研究酒精濫用和酒精中毒的原因和后果，以及酒精相關(guān)健康影響的診斷、病因、治療或預(yù)防的生物醫(yī)學(xué)方面。

該期刊面向研究科學(xué)家和執(zhí)業(yè)臨床醫(yī)生，發(fā)表與飲酒、酒精濫用、尋求酒精行為、耐受性、依賴性、戒斷、長(zhǎng)期戒酒和復(fù)發(fā)相關(guān)的神經(jīng)生物學(xué)、神經(jīng)行為學(xué)和病理生理學(xué)過(guò)程的原創(chuàng)研究。此外，該期刊還報(bào)道了酒精對(duì)終生神經(jīng)可塑性大腦機(jī)制的影響、與青少年酗酒有關(guān)的生物因素、治療酒精中毒的藥物治療策略、酒精濫用和酒精中毒的生物和生化標(biāo)志物、無(wú)節(jié)制飲酒的病理影響、對(duì)肝臟、免疫系統(tǒng)和其他器官系統(tǒng)影響的生物醫(yī)學(xué)和分子因素以及胎兒酒精譜系障礙的生物醫(yī)學(xué)方面，包括損傷機(jī)制、診斷和早期檢測(cè)、治療和預(yù)防。文章發(fā)表在生物醫(yī)學(xué)研究的各個(gè)層面，包括：酒精在體外和體內(nèi)作用的分子和細(xì)胞研究；酒精的遺傳、藥理、行為、發(fā)育或病理生理方面的動(dòng)物模型研究；飲酒的遺傳、行為、認(rèn)知、神經(jīng)影像學(xué)或病理方面的人類研究；診斷（包括雙重診斷）、治療、預(yù)防和流行病學(xué)的臨床研究。該期刊每年出版 9 期；文獻(xiàn)引用中“Alcohol”的縮寫為“Alcohol”。

Alcohol創(chuàng)刊于1984年，由Elsevier Inc.出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋醫(yī)學(xué) - 毒理學(xué)全領(lǐng)域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細(xì)分領(lǐng)域中專業(yè)影響力一般，過(guò)審相對(duì)較易，如果您文章質(zhì)量佳，選擇此期刊，發(fā)表機(jī)率較高。平均審稿速度 較慢,6-12周 約15.6周，影響因子指數(shù)2.5，該期刊近期沒(méi)有被列入國(guó)際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
