Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is a publication of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the official journal of the European Association of Societies of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (EASAPS) and Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plastica (SBCP).

Aesthetic Plastic Surgery provides a forum for original articles advancing the art of aesthetic plastic surgery. Many describe surgical craftsmanship; others deal with complications in surgical procedures and methods by which to treat or avoid them. Coverage includes 'second thoughts' on established techniques, which might be abandoned, modified, or improved. Also included are case histories; improvements in surgical instruments, pharmaceuticals, and operating room equipment; and discussions of problems such as the role of psychosocial factors in the doctor-patient and the patient-public interrelationships. Perhaps most important is the discussion of the role of aesthetic plastic surgery as the final step in the rehabilitation of patients under

Le Journal Africain du Cancer / African Journal of Cancer (JAC), créé sous l'égide de l'association Afrocancer est une revue scientifique et médicale internationale d'information et de formation sur le cancer. Son objectif est de favoriser et de promouvoir la lutte contre les pathologies tumorales sur le continent africain.La revue publie des travaux de recherche aussi bien fondamentale que clinique, principalement en langue française mais aussi anglaise. Elle présente et analyse les stratégies individuelles et collectives de prévention, ainsi que les approches médicales et thérapeutiques allant du diagnostic aux soins palliatifs.

Le JAC s'ouvre à tous les aspects de la cancérologie - de l’épidémiologie aux innovations biotechnologiques, ainsi qu'aux sciences humaines, sociales et environnementales - et souligne les disparités régionales, les influences culturelles et les réalités socio-économiques relatives à la lutte contre la maladie en Afrique. La revue présente sur un mode didactique les informations sur le cancer en Afrique afin de les rendre profitables à ses lecteurs.Véritable lieu d'échanges visant à établir des ponts de coopération entre acteurs du Nord et du Sud, la revue a pour objectif de relever, ensemble, les multiples défis du cancer.La revue est accréditée par le CAMES (Conseil africain et malgache pour l’enseignement supérieur).
The African Journal of Cancer (AJC) has been created to support and accompany the various actions that aim at promoting the battle against cancer on the African continent. Tumoral pathology is a burning issue in developed as well as developing countries. Epidemiological statistics indicate that 70% of new cancer cases would be recorded in developing countries in a very short term. The African Journal of Cancer is a non-biased and independent publication that opens itself to international news on the study of cancer; on, epidemiology; on bio-technological innovations; on environmental, social and human sciences; so as to provide its readers with diversified information on cancer. The journal is the 'trading floor' that aims at setting up a North-South cooperation linkage and to facilitate collaboration between players based in the South so as to, together, face the numerous challenges of cancer.The journal is accredited by the CAMES (African and Malagasy Council for higher education).
