Contributions relating to the basic mechanisms underlying these processes, model systems, and interdisciplinary approaches are strongly encouraged.
Pathophysiology publishes reviews, original research articles, and Special Issues on particular subjects. Medical reports which integrate case reports with mechanistic origins are also strongly encouraged.
