Description

On October 29, 2022, KJWHN received notice of its release to PubMed Central (PMC) live site
three months after the interchange of the PMC Full-Participation Agreement on July 30, 2022 [2].
Therefore, it also became searchable in PubMed. While our September issue editorial projected that
KJWHN would likely be the first non-English journal among Korean health-related journals to
achieve PMC status, since its publication, the Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology (Taehan
Yongsang Uihakhoe Chi) was cataloged as PubMed journal in the National Library of Medicine 14
days earlier than KJWHN. Meanwhile, KJWHN is the first non-English, non-MEDLINE nursing
journal to be indexed in PMC and PubMed.
On December 5, 2022, we received official notice of being indexed in Emerging Sources Citation
Index (ESCI), marking a significant milestone for KJWHN. We are delighted that published papers
from 2020 (issue 1, volume 26) will be retroactively included in both PMC and Web of Science
Core Collection databases in Korean and/or English. Out of more than 20 nursing journals in Korea, KJWHN is the second journal published in both Korean and English to achieve triple crown
status in three databases, including PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection, and Scopus. The first
one is the Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing (eISSN: 2093-758X ).
Since being indexed in Scopus we have seen an increase in submissions: from 48 unsolicited manuscripts in 2021 to 63 in 2022. Now with triple crown status, I hope potential authors may consider
KJWHN, especially those from a wider range of countries. High-quality studies that fit our aims and
scope will be welcomed from authors over the world.
We have continued to publish English manuscripts at a steady rate, which will be meaningful for
international readers to access our published content. Our collaborative work with Statistics Korea
also continued in 2022, resulting in a statistics paper [3]
