Growth of the Journal of Arthroscopic Surgery and Sports Medicine (JASSM) continues

Abstract

It is indeed satisfying to see the growth of the Journal of Arthroscopic Surgery and Sports Medicine (JASSM), since its launch in April 2020. In lesser than 2 years, we are publishing the 5 th issue, without any break. We have been publishing all article types, related to Arthroscopy and Sports Medicine and have published 56 articles so far. Some of these articles have been published by top-notch people in this field globally. We also have seen its growing readership, with more than 200,000 downloads and it has started receiving an increasing number of citations of its publications in a short span of time. The JASSM is registered with several International abstracting partners such as Google Scholar, Crossref, Scilit, Index Copernicus, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wang Fung, and ReadCube. We plan to apply for more abstracting partners such as Directory of Open Access Journal and PubMed Central.
