This has been yet another successful year for Thorax. The number of submissions to the journal has remained high, and the number of original papers is still rising (table 1
). The geographical distribution of submissions reflects the international flavour of the journal (table 2) and, relative to previous years,1,2 our acceptance rate has been even lower this year (table 3). Median time to first decisions is now at an all time low, reflecting our policy of trying to give a rapid decision and also only publishing the best papers in the journal (table 4). The journal impact factor has risen further to 4.09 and we are still third amongst the respiratory journals, just behind the two American Thoracic Society publications.3 We have continued to publish strong review series,4–7 management guidelines,8–10 and the Year in Review.11
