Feature papers represent the most advanced research with significant potential for high impact in the field. A Feature Paper should be a substantial original Article that involves several techniques or approaches, provides an outlook for future research directions and describes possible research applications.
Feature papers are submitted upon individual invitation or recommendation by the scientific editors and must receive positive feedback from the reviewers.
Editor’s Choice articles are based on recommendations by the scientific editors of MDPI journals from around the world. Editors select a small number of articles recently published in the journal that they believe will be particularly interesting to readers, or important in the respective research area. The aim is to provide a snapshot of some of the most exciting work published in the various research areas of the journal.

To further enhance the quality of Journal of Respiration and the papers published in it, under the guidance of our Editor-in-Chief, Prof. Dr. Cesar A. Moran, the journal has updated and revised its aims and scope. The original scope and the updated version are listed below:
Aims (new version): The Journal of Respiration is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal dedicated to presenting developments related to the thoracic cavity that may affect the respiratory system in any way. It publishes reviews, research articles, communications, and technical notes, and selected exceptional case reports. Our Editorial Board is composed of physicians and scientists who cover the broad spectrum of specialties within research on the thoracic cavity. In addition, our Editorial Board is committed to upholding the highest possible standards regarding the prompt and unbiased assessment of any information referred to the journal for publication. We are committed to a rapid but accurate review process so that any manuscript submitted to the journal can be published without unnecessary delay. |

Scope (new version): The Journal of Respiration welcomes manuscripts related to the thoracic cavity, which may affect the respiratory system. The thoracic cavity, in addition to the conventional upper and lower respiratory tract structures, contains the esophagus and the heart, which in some circumstances may affect the respiratory system. Therefore, we welcome manuscripts related to the lung proper (including small and large airway) and the incorporate mediastinum, pleura, chest wall, larynx, and trachea, esophagus, and heart, as components of the thoracic cavity. Furthermore, we are interested in all factors that may affect these anatomical structures, whether related to pathology, diagnostic imaging, anatomical, physiological, histological, oncological, or non-neoplastic processes, occupational health, epidemiology, health education, health promotion, or intensive care; this may include reactive, infectious, or idiopathic conditions, among others. We are also interested in surgical procedures or interventional radiological aspects that may be related to the respiratory system. We are committed to enhancing our understanding of the multiple conditions that may affect the respiratory system, which in turn will expand our knowledge. If you have a specific idea in mind and want to develop a theme for any topic, please get in contact with the Editor-in-Chief or with Managing Editor. We warmly welcome you and your ideas. |
