Scope

Integrative Cancer Therapies focuses on a new and growing movement in cancer treatment. Integrative cancer treatment includes therapeutic interventions in the areas of diet, lifestyle, exercise, stress care, and nutritional supplements. The journal emphasizes scientific validation of these therapies and of therapies from culturally diverse medical traditions, such as herbs, massage, yoga and other meditative movement therapies. The responsible integration of integrative therapies with conventional oncology treatment is a major focus of the journal. The use of alternative medical therapies is also explored. In addition, the journal covers innovative therapies in rapidly advancing areas of medicine that may be affected by lifestyle, including circadian biology, the microbiome and immune-based therapies. The journal presents scientifically rigorous original research, literature reviews, case studies and commentaries on key topics such as: Contributions of exercise, diet, mind-body therapies and herbs or other supplements to improved cancer outcomes Models for integrating complementary and conventional treatment in clinical practice Evaluation of interventions from traditional medicine systems such as traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda Assessing and improving quality of life for cancer patients Enhancing patients’ recovery after cancer treatments Investigations of the effect of integrative therapies on side effects of oncology treatments Potential interactions of cancer chemotherapy drugs with frequently used dietary supplements Relevant laboratory studies of molecular mechanisms and biology behind integrative approaches.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.
