FEM in 2024, A quick look

Abstract

Over the past year, the journal Frontiers in Emergency Medicine (FEM) has reinforced its dedication to advancing emergency medicine by featuring research from five continents, including Iran, Turkey, India, Ethiopia, Spain, Canada, and the United States. The high volume of submissions reflects growing trust in FEM, though only 20.9% are accepted due to stringent scientific and ethical standards. A major milestone this year was FEM's inclusion in the EBSCO and Magiran databases, increasing visibility. FEM aims to expand publishing opportunities while maintaining quality through expert review. This article highlights key achievements and research contributions from the past year.
