Journal of Etiological Diagnosis
Advancing molecular understanding of disease mechanisms through rigorous peer-reviewed research in pathophysiology, biomarker discovery, and mechanistic investigation
Deep investigation of cellular pathways, gene-environment interactions, and molecular cascades underlying disease initiation and progression
Identification and validation of molecular signatures that reveal disease mechanisms and pathophysiological states
Development and characterization of cellular, animal, and computational models that replicate disease pathophysiology
JED publishes original research, comprehensive reviews, and mechanistic case studies that advance our understanding of disease causation and development. Our editorial focus emphasizes pathophysiological mechanisms, molecular targets, and etiological pathways across diverse disease categories.
Molecular & Genetic Etiology
Genomic mechanisms, epigenetic modifications, gene-environment interactions, mutation pathogenesis, and molecular pathway analysis underlying disease development
Infectious Disease Pathophysiology
Host-pathogen interactions, microbial pathogenesis mechanisms, immune evasion strategies, and molecular basis of infection-induced pathology
Cancer Etiology & Mechanisms
Oncogenic pathways, tumor microenvironment dynamics, metastatic cascade mechanisms, and molecular characterization of malignant transformation
Chronic Disease Pathophysiology
Molecular mechanisms of metabolic disorders, cardiovascular pathogenesis, neurodegenerative cascades, and chronic inflammatory processes
Environmental & Occupational Factors
Molecular toxicology, environmental exposure pathways, occupational hazard mechanisms, and cellular responses to external stressors
Biomarker Development
Discovery and mechanistic validation of molecular markers that reflect disease processes, pathway activation, and pathophysiological states
Scope Emphasis: JED prioritizes mechanistic investigations that answer "how" and "why" diseases develop at the molecular level. We focus on pathophysiology, cellular mechanisms, and molecular targets — not clinical diagnosis protocols, treatment guidelines, or patient management strategies.
JED provides researchers with a dedicated platform for mechanistic disease research that emphasizes scientific rigor, rapid dissemination, and global accessibility. Our editorial process ensures thorough peer review while maintaining efficient timelines that respect the urgency of advancing scientific knowledge.
- Rigorous Peer Review: Single-blind review by experts in molecular mechanisms, pathophysiology, and disease modeling ensures methodological quality and scientific validity
- Open Access Publication: Immediate, unrestricted access to all published content enables global dissemination and accelerates scientific progress
- Rapid Publication Timeline: Streamlined editorial processes deliver swift manuscript decisions and prompt online publication following acceptance
- Author Copyright Retention: Authors maintain full copyright ownership with freedom to reuse their work in future publications and grant applications
- Broad Indexing Coverage: Published articles receive enhanced visibility through strategic indexing and academic database inclusion
- Ethical Publishing Standards: Adherence to international guidelines for research integrity, data transparency, and publication ethics
