TRANSPLANT INFECTIOUS DISEASE has been established as a forum for presenting the most current information on the prevention and treatment of infection complicating organ and bone marrow transplantation. The point of view of the journal is that infection and allograft rejection (or graft-versus-host disease) are closely intertwined, and that advances in one area will have immediate consequences on the other. The interaction of the transplant recipient with potential microbial invaders, the impact of immunosuppressive strategies on this interaction, and the effects of cytokines, growth factors, and chemokines liberated during the course of infections, rejection, or graft-versus-host disease are central to the interests and mission of this journal.
TRANSPLANT INFECTIOUS DISEASE is aimed at disseminating the latest information relevant to the infectious disease complications of transplantation to clinicians and scientists involved in bone marrow, kidney, liver, heart, lung, intestinal, and pancreatic transplantation. The infectious disease consequences and concerns regarding innovative transplant strategies, from novel immunosuppressive agents to xenotransplantation, are very much a concern of this journal. In addition, this journal feels a particular responsibility to inform primary care practitioners in the community, who increasingly are sharing the responsability for the care of these patients, of the special considerations regarding the prevention and treatment of infection in transplant recipients. As exemplified by the international editorial board, articles will be sought throughout the world that will address both general issues and those of a more restricted geographic import. Transplant Infectious Disease will include state-of-the-art review on important subjects, the results of clinical investigation, interesting case reports, and two regular features: a clinical-pathologic conference entitled Transplant Infectious Disease Grand Rounds and reviews of the basic science foundation of transplant infectious disease, entitled Advances in Science. Subjects to be covered include specific infections, the epidemiology ofimportant infections, the interaction among immunosuppression and infection exenture, the diagnosis of specific infection, pathogenesis, and clinical management. Both basic science and clinical articles will be featured. Where controversy exists, both sides of an issue will be presented. This journal is meant to serve the needs of all clinicians and scientists involved in the study and care of organ and bone marrow transplant recipients.
