The Journal of Orthopaedic Translation (JOT) is the official peer-reviewed publication of the Chinese Speaking Orthopaedic Society (CSOS) and the International Chinese Musculoskeletal Research Society (ICMRS). It is published quarterly by Elsevier in January, April, July and October. All material published in the JOT are freely available at www.e-jot.com.The JOT aims to focus on the rapidly growing field of orthopaedic translational research. While there are a number of high quality orthopaedic journals, none are solely dedicated to the field of orthopaedic translational research. The importance of translational research is quickly being recognized by all spectrums of the scientific community, from clinicians to basic science researchers. To truly improve the health of people, scientific research on the cellular and molecular level must be utilized and applied appropriately in the clinical setting. A journal that is purely dedicated to the art of translational research will be a monumental step in the advancement of musculoskeletal care by bringing cutting edge knowledge to the forefront and allowing pioneers of orthopaedic translation to exchange and mutually enhance expertise. The JOT aims to be that linking factor and is looking forward to receiving high quality manuscripts that will advance the field of orthopaedic translation.The JOT is devoted to research and issues of strong interest in translational medicine regarding musculoskeletal and related themes. Material that will be considered include any original research findings, discussions or analyses that will move the field closer to the goal of improving musculoskeletal health, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders or injuries. Multidisciplinary approaches are particularly encouraged. We accept original articles as well as review articles, editorials, perspectives, and letters to the Editor.The main goal of the JOT is to publish papers that identify and fill scientific knowledge gaps at the junction of basic research and clinical application (from bench to bedside) or community application (from bench to community). In this vein, original research should report significant progress toward the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders and serve as templates for future exploration and investments in translational orthopaedics.Original papers are categorized into the following topics:Animal modelsBiomaterialsBiophysical stimulationClinical trialsDiagnosticsHealth promotionIndustries and marketsMedical devices and implantsNutrition and drugsRegenerative medicineRegulations and policiesRehabilitation

Journal of Orthopaedics aims to be the pre-eminent orthopaedics journal and also contribute towards the improvement of the quality of health care by delivering a significant impact on the clinical practitioners through its content.

The journal publishes original research work across all disciplines of orthopedics and allied sciences. It also publishes articles on continuing education, evidence updates, students' pre-specified contributions, journal clubs, health-related information of interest to our readers and letters to the editor.

We also encourage the submission of papers from authors whose first language is not English, although it is recommended that before submitting your manuscript you ask a colleague familiar with written English to read it through. This will greatly speed up the time taken to publish your paper. It is requested to note that the journal has an international readership and all submissions should be aimed at specifying something about the setting in which the work was conducted. They must also provide any specific reasons for the research and also provide an elaborate description of the results.
