We are pleased to announce that in early 2018, The JAMA Network will launch a new journal—JAMA Network Open. Our editorial goal is to publish the very best clinical research across all disciplines, serving the worldwide community of investigators and clinicians and meeting the evolving needs and requirements of authors and funders. With the launch of JAMA Network Open, we simultaneously assert our editorial commitment to excellence and to the authorship community regardless of requirements of funders. This will be a fully open access journal and follows the launch of JAMA Oncology in 2015 and JAMA Cardiology in 2016, which are hybrid journals offering open access options for research articles.1,2 Frederick P. Rivara, MD, MPH, current editor in chief of JAMA Pediatrics, will be the editor in chief of JAMA Network Open. Medical journals and publishing have changed substantially during the past 2 decades following the emergence and ascendance of the internet and the mobilization of journal content. Journals have gone “digital”—virtually all journals release content online ahead of or instead of print, and connect with their readers via electronic table of contents and through social media. Open access publishing has risen to prominence concurrent with these changes, with a primary goal to make research findings more accessible to potential users around the world. In addition, many funders now require that authors publish their results in open access journals, and this requirement will almost assuredly expand in the future. Our decision to launch an open access journal was based on careful thought and planning and represents our response to the rapidly evolving landscape of scientific discovery and medical journals and publishing. Between 2008 and 2016, the number of major articles indexed annually in Web of Science increased from 984 350 to 1 364 453 (Figure, A). During the same time, at JAMA and The JAMA Network specialty journals the number of research manuscripts submitted increased from 9006 to 14 676, but the number of research manuscripts published declined from 1739 to 1335 (Figure, B). In 2017, following the launches of JAMA Oncology and JAMA Cardiology, we estimate that more than 17 000 research manuscripts will be submitted to JAMA and the 11 specialty journals and approximately 1500 will be published. Clearly, the world’s research effort has increased substantially during the past decade. The number of articles published in JAMA and the 11 specialty journals is necessarily limited, and JAMA Network Open will provide another high-quality option for authors of research articles in disciplines already represented by our current titles as well as expanding opportunities for authors of manuscripts in other important disciplines. Following the launch of JAMA Oncology and JAMA Cardiology, advocates for additional new journals in The JAMA Network approached us with thoughtful proposals. Many disciplines are not represented in our current collection of titles, and thus there are opportunities to publish more disciplinespecific journals. Rather than launch another subject-focused title, our preference is to expand The JAMA Network publishing platform to encompass all of clinical medicine and health care. The new JAMA Network website has made this decision Figure. Numbers of Major Articles Published in Web of Science and Research Articles Submitted and Accepted for JAMA Network Journals, 2008-2016

宣布 JAMA 网络开放——来自 JAMA 网络的新期刊

我们很高兴地宣布，2018 年初，JAMA Network 将推出新期刊——JAMA Network Open。我们的编辑目标是发表所有学科的最佳临床研究，为全球研究人员和临床医生社区提供服务，并满足作者和资助者不断变化的需求和要求。随着 JAMA Network Open 的推出，我们同时声明了我们对卓越和作者社区的编辑承诺，而不管资助者的要求如何。继 2015 年 JAMA Oncology 和 2016 年 JAMA Cardiology 推出之后，这将是一份完全开放获取的期刊，它们是混合期刊，为研究文章提供开放获取选项。 1,2 Frederick P. Rivara，医学博士，公共卫生硕士，现任编辑JAMA Pediatrics 的负责人，将担任 JAMA Network Open 的主编。在过去的 20 年里，随着互联网的出现和崛起以及期刊内容的动员，医学期刊和出版业发生了巨大变化。期刊已经走向“数字化”——几乎所有期刊都会在印刷之前或替代印刷之前在线发布内容，并通过电子目录和社交媒体与读者联系。与这些变化同时发生的开放获取出版变得突出，其主要目标是让世界各地的潜在用户更容易获得研究成果。此外，许多资助者现在要求作者在开放获取期刊上发表他们的结果，而且这一要求在未来几乎肯定会扩大。我们决定推出开放获取期刊是基于仔细的思考和规划，代表了我们对科学发现、医学期刊和出版领域快速发展的反应。从 2008 年到 2016 年，Web of Science 每年被索引的主要文章数量从 984 350 篇增加到 1 364 453 篇（图 A）。与此同时，在 JAMA 和 JAMA Network 专业期刊上，提交的研究手稿数量从 9006 篇增加到 14676 篇，但发表的研究手稿数量从 1739 篇下降到 1335 篇（图 B）。2017 年，随着 JAMA Oncology 和 JAMA Cardiology 的推出，我们估计将有超过 17 000 篇研究手稿提交给 JAMA 和 11 种专业期刊，并将出版约 1500 篇。清楚地，在过去的十年中，世界的研究工作大幅增加。在 JAMA 和 11 种专业期刊上发表的文章数量必然有限，而 JAMA Network Open 将为我们当前标题已经代表的学科的研究文章的作者提供另一个高质量的选择，并扩大手稿作者的机会其他重要学科。在 JAMA Oncology 和 JAMA Cardiology 推出之后，JAMA Network 中其他新期刊的倡导者向我们提出了深思熟虑的建议。许多学科没有出现在我们当前的书名集中，因此有机会出版更多学科特定的期刊。而不是推出另一个以主题为中心的标题，我们倾向于扩展 JAMA 网络发布平台以涵盖所有临床医学和医疗保健。新的 JAMA Network 网站做出了这个决定。2008-2016年JAMA网络期刊提交和接受的Web of Science和Research Articles中发表的主要文章数
