Digestive Disease Interventions is a peer reviewed journal that aims to publish high quality review articles on all aspects of digestive disease interventions. As the official journal of the American Society of Digestive Disease Interventions, DDI intends to become the journal of choice for interventional radiologists, gastroenterologists and gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary surgeons who seek reliable and up-to-date information on all aspects of minimally invasive interventions of the digestive system.

The International Studies Review (ISR) provides a window on current trends and research in international studies worldwide. Published four times a year, ISR is intended to help: (a) scholars engage in the kind of dialogue and debate that will shape the field of international studies in the future, (b) graduate and undergraduate students understand major issues in international studies and identify promising opportunities for research, and (c) educators keep up with new ideas and research. To achieve these objectives, ISR includes analytical essays, reviews of new books, and a forum in each issue. Essays integrate scholarship, clarify debates, provide new perspectives on research, identify new directions for the field, and present insights into scholarship in various parts of the world. Book reviews focus on books published within the past year that contribute conceptually and empirically to international studies. The books reviewed are from across the globe. The Forum provides an outlet for debates over concepts, theories, methods, and the state of current research as well as reactions to pieces published in ISR.

The Journal of Parasitology is the official journal of the American Society of Parasitologists (ASP). The Journal is nonprofit and dues of the membership support the cost of publication. Manuscripts in English are accepted from investigators in any country regardless of whether they are members of the Society. The Journal publishes official business of the ASP and results of new original research, primarily on parasitic animals.

The Journal of Elder Abuse & Neglect is the peer-reviewed quarterly journal that explores the advances in research, policy and practice, and clinical and ethical issues surrounding the abuse and neglect of older people. This unique forum provides state-of-the-art research and practice that is both international and multidisciplinary in scope. The journal's broad, comprehensive approach is only one of its strengths it presents training issues, research findings, case studies, practice and policy issues, book and media reviews, commentary, and historical background on a wide range of topics. Readers get tools and techniques needed for better detecting and responding to actual or potential elder abuse and neglect. The editorial board and contributors in the Journal of Elder Abuse & Neglect consist of leading experts from various professional fields around the globe. Articles from these well-known and respected contributors provide high-quality, well-rounded coverage of vital issues from various professional perspectives. Recurring features provide extensive, vital information on clinical practice, policy, education and training, literature and book reviews, international issues, and information on specific disciplines important in the field.
