The past year—and the second year of our editorship—has been a very successful one for Thorax.1,2 We have continued to receive high quality papers for publication and our impact factor for 2003 now stands at 4.188.3 This means that Thorax is now the second highest ranked of the traditional respiratory journals in terms of impact factor, behind the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, and has now overtaken the American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology.
The journal impact factor for 2003 is calculated as the number of citations in 2003 to papers published in Thorax in 2001 and 2002. The changes in impact factor for Thorax from 1996 to 2003 and a comparison with the impact factors for the other main respiratory journals are shown in fig 1
