英文简介：The Journal is international in scope, with author and editorial contributions from across the globe. The focus is on clinical and epidemiological aspects of tropical and infectious diseases, new and re-emerging infections, chronic non-communicable diseases, and medical conditions prevalent in the Latin America-Caribbean region, and of significance to global health, especially in developing countries. The Journal covers all medical disciplines, as well as basic and translational research elucidating the pathophysiologic basis of diseases or focussing on new therapeutic approaches, and publishes original scientific research, reviews, case reports, brief communications, letters, commentaries and medical images. The Journal publishes four to six issues and four supplements annually. English is the language of publication but Abstracts are also duplicated in Spanish. Most of the articles are submitted at the authors’ initiative, but some are solicited by the Editor-in-Chief. Unless expressly stated, the Editorial Board does not accept responsibility for authors’ opinions.All papers on submission are reviewed by a subcommittee. Those deemed worthy for review are sent to two or three reviewers (one of the three might be a statistician if necessary). The returned papers with reviewer comments are reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief. Papers may be rejected, accepted or sent back to authors for revision. Resubmitted papers from authors are reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief and may be sent back to reviewers or a final decision made by Editor-in-Chief. The decision of the Editorial Board is final with regards to rejected articles. Rejected articles will not be returned to the authors. The editorial subcommittee has the right to return sub-standard manuscripts to the authors, rather than passing them on to the reviewers. This implies outright rejection of the manuscript.中文简介：（来自Google、百度翻译）该杂志的范围是国际性的，来自全球的作者和社论。重点是热带和传染病的临床和流行病学方面，新的和重新出现的感染，慢性非传染性疾病以及拉丁美洲-加勒比地区普遍存在的医疗条件，对全球健康，特别是在发展中国家。该杂志涵盖所有医学学科，以及阐明疾病的病理生理基础或专注于新的治疗方法的基础和转化研究，并发表原创科学研究，评论，病例报告，简短通讯，信件，评论和医学图像。该杂志每年出版四到六期和四篇增刊。英语是出版物的语言，但摘要也以西班牙语重复。大多数文章都是在作者的倡议下提交的，但也有一些是由主编征求的。除非明确说明，否则编辑委员会不承担作者意见的责任。 所有提交的论文均由小组委员会审查。那些被认为值得审查的人将被发送给两个或三个审阅者 (如果需要，这三个人中的一个可能是统计学家)。退回的带有审阅者意见的论文由主编审阅。论文可能会被拒绝，接受或发回给作者进行修订。作者重新提交的论文由主编审阅，并可能发回审阅者或主编做出最终决定。对于被拒绝的文章，编辑委员会的决定是最终决定。被拒绝的文章不会退还给作者。编辑小组委员会有权将不合标准的手稿退还给作者，而不是将其传递给审稿人。这意味着彻底拒绝了手稿。
