Editorial Policy and Philosophy
Mission statement: CARDIOLOGY TODAY
strives to be the global, definitive information source for
cardiovascular medicine professionals by delivering timely, accurate,
authoritative and balanced reports on clinical issues, socioeconomic topics and
industry developments, as well as presenting clinically relevant information on
medical therapies for the benefit of the patient.
Article intention: Articles are intended for informational
purposes only and should not be used as the basis of patient treatment. All
opinions expressed by authors and quoted sources are their own and do not
necessarily reflect the opinions of the editors, publishers or editorial boards
of SLACK Incorporated. The acceptance of advertising in no way implies
endorsement by the editors, publishers or editorial boards of SLACK
Incorporated.
Article review process: All articles in
CARDIOLOGY TODAY are reviewed by
the Chief Medical Editor and Executive Editor, who are solely responsible for
deciding upon their acceptance, rejection or need for revision, based upon
their appropriateness to the mission of the publication. All staff-written news
reports are sent to quoted sources for verification of medial accuracy. Quotes
and other information in staff-written news reports are verified for accuracy
with sources prior to publication. Excluded from this policy are
CARDIOLOGY TODAY web site
articles, which are not sent to sources to facilitate the rapid dissemination
of this news. Letters and other unsolicited material are assumed to be intended
for publication and are subject to review and editing. Unsolicited
physician-written and other expert-written original articles are encouraged but
also are subject to the editorial process and additional review by the
appropriate subspecialty Section Editor.
Because CARDIOLOGY TODAY
reports on emerging technologies, techniques and medical therapies, some
reports may discuss drug and device applications that either are not approved
by the appropriate regulatory body and/or the Food and Drug Administration or
are not considered to be within the standard practice of medicine. In lieu of
placing a trademark symbol at each occurrence of a trademark name, we
acknowledge here that the omission is due to the editorial nature of the
publication and with no intention of trademark infringement.
Dateline policy: In the interest of accountability and
transparency in its reporting practices, CARDIOLOGY TODAY includes datelines
with articles only if the reporter attended the presentation of the information
on which they reported. As a prerequisite for publication, all authors and
quoted sources are asked to disclose fully and specifically any direct
financial interest in products mentioned in articles, as well as their status
as paid consultants or employees for any companies mentioned.

Advertising: Though the CARDIOLOGY TODAY web site is supported
by advertising, its acceptance of advertising in no way implies endorsement by
the editors, publisher or editorial boards. All advertisements appearing on the
CARDIOLOGY TODAY web site are
placed in fixed positions that are predetermined. The positioning of
advertisements is not related to editorial content or known in advance of an
article's publication; any appearance otherwise is simply coincidence.
